I'm trying to change the font of some ranges in bold
To gain time I want to use the function getRangeList to modify all ranges at the same time
I detect the list of ranges to modify with a loop and concatenate them in a variable like this:
for(i = 0; i <= mytab.length -1; i++){
if(condition){
if(coord == ''){
coord = coord + '\'A' + i + '\'' + ', \'F' + i + '\'';
}
else{
coord = coord + ', \'A' + i + '\'' + ', \'F' + i + '\'';
}
}
}
The Logger.log(coord) looks as follow:
10:56:48 AM Notice Execution started
10:56:58 AM Info 'A3', 'F3', 'A6', 'F6', 'A8', 'F8', 'A12', 'F12', 'A18', 'F18'
The issue appears when I try to use my coord variable with getRangeList
sheet.getRangeList([coord]).setFontWeight('bold');
returns "Exception: Range not found"
But when I manually write all of the values in the function it works.
sheet.getRangeList(['A3', 'F3', 'A6', 'F6', 'A8', 'F8', 'A12', 'F12', 'A18', 'F18']).setFontWeight('bold');
I think the issue might come from the commas not treated the same in a string variable and in the function itself but I can't manage to solve the problem
Use array and push instead of string and appending the range. String looking like array is still a string and will not make it an array just because you were able put it inside between brackets.
coord = [];
for(i = 0; i <= mytab.length -1; i++){
if(condition){
coord.push(`A${i}`)
coord.push(`F${i}`)
}
}
// use coord directly as it is an array now
sheet.getRangeList(coord).setFontWeight('bold');
In your code, Range is not found because it is invalid.
'A3', 'F3', 'A6', 'F6', 'A8', 'F8', 'A12', 'F12', 'A18', 'F18' is counted as one element and is not a valid range.
else coord has contents or not.
