repeat for each marked card i of this stack - error

[3d-swiss]

Hello

I like to visit all marked cards:

repeat for each marked card i of this stack
-- do something
end repeat

Please tell me, what's the correct first line.

Thanks, have a good weekend.

Hi,

Code: Select all

repeat with x = 1 to the number of cards
  if the marked of cd x then
    -- do something
  end if
end repeat

Kind regards,

Mark

Hi...

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   push card
   
   put the number of marked cards into cardCount
   repeat with count = 1 to cardCount
      go next marked card of this stack
      beep
      wait 1 second
   end repeat
   
   pop card
end mouseUp

be well

Hi,

thanks for the answers. I like the second solution best, because it's faster

BTW: It's confusing, that some objects can be used with 'repeat for each' and other not.

Hi,

Repeat for each is not for objects but for strings and arrays. Sometimes, strings are in objects, but they're still strings.

Yes, Dixie's script is actually better

Kind regards,

Mark

Hi guys,

Repeat for each is not for objects but for strings and arrays.

yep, but I wish this would also work with cards and objects!


Best

On the bright side, this thread was easy to find when I was looking for the same answer

A variation of the two perfectly good scripts you already have, but a little more compact.

repeat with y = 1 to the number of marked cards
set the yourProperty of btn "yourButton" of marked card y to newProperty -- just doing something on each marked card
end repeat

After all these, you should be more comfortable with both marked cards and repeat loops.
