在 google docs 中绘制某些字词 - Google Apps Script

Question

I have this code below:

        var textToHighlight = 'Normal';
        var highLightStyle = {};
        highLightStyle[DocumentApp.Attribute.FOREGROUND_COLOR] = '#FFC0CB';
        var paras = doc.getParagraphs();
        var textLocation = {};

        for (i=0; i<paras.lenght; i++) {
          textLocation = paras[i].findText(textToHighlight);
          if (textLocation != null && textLocation.getStartOffset() != -1) {
            textLocation.getElement().setAttributes(textLocation.getStartOffset(), textLocation.getEndOffsetInclusive(), highLightStyle);
          }
        }

With it, I want to color all the words 'normal' that appear in my document, but when I run the code, nothing happens and it doesn't accuse any error, it compiles normally.

I tried this another code:

        let pinkColor = "#FFC0CB"
        let pinkElements = body.findText("Normal")
        let elem = pinkElements.getElement().asText();
        let t = elem.getText();
        elem.setForegroundColor(t.indexOf('Normal'), t.indexOf('High')+3, pinkColor)

But with the code above it paints only the first word 'Normal' that it finds, the rest remains neutral.

Does anyone know what may be happening to both codes?

Answer 1

Does anyone know what may be happening to both codes?

Code 1:

You made a typo, lenght should be length .

Code 2:

See my answer below.

Explanation:

You need to iterate over all elements with the particular keyword.

To achieve that you need to follow these steps:

1. get the first found element:

   pinkElement = body.findText(searchWord);

2. check if an element with searchWord exists

3. do some code for this element

4. assign a new element which is the next one you found before:

   pinkElement = body.findText(searchWord, pinkElement);

5. repeat steps 1-4 until there is no other element:

   while (pinkElement != null)

Solution:

function myFunction() {
   let doc = DocumentApp.getActiveDocument();
   let body = doc.getBody();
   let pinkColor = "#FFC0CB";
   let searchWord = "Normal";
   let pinkElement = body.findText(searchWord);
   while (pinkElement != null) {
     let elem = pinkElement.getElement().asText();
     let t = elem.getText();
     elem.setForegroundColor(t.indexOf(searchWord), t.indexOf('High')+3, pinkColor);
     pinkElement = body.findText(searchWord, pinkElement);
   }
}

Answer 2

I'm surprised it is returning the first one. "length" is spelled wrong on this line:

for (i=0; i<paras.**lenght**; i++) {

See if changing it to ".length" fixes it. If not, there is a similar example in the Docs at Class Range you could use.
