Welcome!

Vex Notebook Helper is an AppScript that automatically increments page numbers and generates Table of Contents for Vex Notebooks on Google Slides!

What it does

This script will:

• Find page number elements and increment them
• Extract data from each slide
• Populate a Table of Contents table with this data

Prerequisites

Vex Notebook Helper is only designed to work on notebooks that:

• Have the elements you want to track be in a consistent position
• Have a table of contents page (must be a table)
• Must be on Google Slides (duh)

If your notebook doesn't meet these standards, well sorry :c

How to Use

Choose to generate your script, or download the code and adjust the constants at the top of the script!
Run the script by going to Extensions > Apps Script, pasting the code in, and running the notebook function.
In order to find the coordinates for each element, create a slide with JUST that element, and use this code in Apps Script to log the coordinates:

It will log the coordinates of EACH element on EVERY slide, so i'd reccomend moving your test slides to the top and ending after your test slides have been checked.
You can then put these coordinates in the script! The tolerance is the amount of wiggle room allowed for each element. I'd reccomend around 20.
