Bonjour

You can use Methods
contract()
expand()

docRef.selection.expand(1) ( 1 pixel )
docRef.selection.contract(1)

Bonjour

After research I think it is better to avoid the method
SelectAll() and select the document with at least one pixel.

Then the resizeBoundary () and other methods work without errors

Test this:

Code: Select all

startRulerUnits = app.preferences.rulerUnits;

startTypeUnits = app.preferences.typeUnits;

startDisplayDialogs = app.displayDialogs;

var docRef = app.activeDocument;



app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS

app.preferences.typeUnits = TypeUnits.PIXELS;

app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO;



var largeur = docRef.width.as('px');

//alert(largeur)



app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS//CM//PIXELS

//app.preferences.typeUnits = TypeUnits.PIXELS//CM

app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO;



var largeur = docRef.width.as('px')//px'); ou as('mm')

var hauteur = docRef.height.as('px');

//alert(largeur)



//Selection : la taille de l image moins 1 px - selectAll() ne passe pas



LEFT = 0;

RIGHT = largeur-1;

TOP = 0

BOTTOM = hauteur-1;



var shapeRef = [

[LEFT,TOP],

[LEFT,BOTTOM],

[RIGHT,BOTTOM],

[RIGHT,TOP]

]



app.activeDocument.selection.select(shapeRef);



app.activeDocument.selection.resizeBoundary(50,300,AnchorPosition.MIDDLECENTER)



app.preferences.rulerunits = startRulerUnits;

app.preferences.typeunits = startTypeUnits;

app.displayDialogs = startDisplayDialogs;

am not an expert but am pretty sure the easiest way is to get the "Boundary" (Bound) of the current selection , delete it and then create a new selection after doing the required modifications/resizing !
