Google脚本-根据另一个工作表上的复选框隐藏/取消隐藏Google工作表

Question

I"m pretty sure I'm doing something wrong in the code, as to why it's not functioning the way I want it. Firstly, here's the code:

function onEdit(a) {

var sheet = a.source.getActiveSheet();
var aa = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var COMP = aa.getSheetByName("COMP");
var COMPcell = sheet.getRange('B6').getValue();
if(COMPcell = 'TRUE'){COMP.showSheet();}else{COMP.hideSheet();}
}

In here, I have a checkbox on cell B6 of the 'active sheet' (named Monthly summary). When checked (and thus have a value of TRUE), I want the sheet named "COMP" to appear. Otherwise, it should be hidden. I'm not really good at coding and I've researched the above formula and modified it as to my requirement, but I can't get it to work.

Any insights on this will be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Answer 1

• You want to show the sheet of COMP only when the checkbox of "B6" is checked.
• You want to hide the sheet of COMP when the checkbox of "B6" is not checked.

If my understanding is correct, how about this modification? Please think of this as just one of several answers.

Modified script 1:

If your script is modified, in your script, COMPcell = 'TRUE' of the if statement is not compared the value. In this case, please modify to COMPcell === true . The modified script reflected this is as follows.

function onEdit(a) {
  var sheet = a.source.getActiveSheet();
  var aa = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
  var COMP = aa.getSheetByName("COMP");
  var COMPcell = sheet.getRange('B6').getValue();
  if (COMPcell === true) { // Modified
    COMP.showSheet();
  } else {
    COMP.hideSheet();
  }
}

Modified script 2:

When the event object and isChecked() are used, your script can also be modified as follows. In this script, only when the checkbox of "B6" is edited, the script works.

function onEdit(a) {
  var range = a.range;
  if (range.getA1Notation() == "B6") {
    var COMP = a.source.getSheetByName("COMP");
    if (range.isChecked()) {
      COMP.showSheet();
    } else {
      COMP.hideSheet();
    }
  }
}
