Distribute objects script

Post by Sonnetje69 »

Dear all,

Looking for a solution to distribute object with exact defined spacing, I came accross a script from Paul Riggott at the following forum: https://forums.adobe.com/message/2929207#2929207 As to Paul, the scrip will do this: To use select all the layers with the objects in Photoshop, and run the script, it will ask for pixel spacing for horizontal and vertical spacing as it will try to space the layers in both directions IE: you can have one row of objects, or a grid of objects.
If the object are too far out of alignment it won't be able to do the spacing and it will let you know.

Unfortunately the script does not work in Photoshop CS6. Would it be possible to edit the script so it will work in Photoshop CS6 or does anyone know if Paul ever updated the script? Or maybe there is a simular script available somewhere...?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Regards,
Sonja
