javascript erase all from pasteboard

[Michel Raj]

I had this script going well in CS4 and 5, but in CS6, it erases everything, not only from the pasteboard, but also from the pages, except the items from the master pages.
Can someone tell me what changed ?

Michel



var doc = app.documents[0];
items = doc.pageItems;
for(var i=items.length-1;i>=0;i--){
if(items[i].parent instanceof Spread){items[i].remove()}

I'm not sure of the JS syntax, as I mostly AppleScript InDesign, but get the objects as you did, and also query them for their parent page (parentPage?). If it is nothing (null?), then it's on the pasteboard.

So I'll guess this as the code line:

if (items[i].parent instanceof Spread && (items[i].parentPage == null) {items[i].remove()}

Actually, probably just this would do:

if (items[i].parentPage == null) {items[i].remove()}
