Hello,
is it possible to get the contents of an OCG via JavaScript, specifically annotations?
After selecting an annotation it is possible to put it in a layer / an OCG, however I can't find any relation between OCG and its contents that I could use within a script.
thanks in advance

Re: Get Annotations from OCG with JavaScript
Hello benep,
an object inside a PDF file may belong to more than one OCG - so OCGs in their design are complicated.
And I've also spent some time looking at the JS documentation and indeed it does not seem like there's a way for you to get a list of objects that belong to a specific OCG. There does not seem to be methods to check for a specific annotation whether it is part of an OCG either (so e.g. you could iterate through all the annotations and check which are on your layer) .
Kind regards,
Stefan
