In my pixel spec script, I noticed the following steps when creating multiple measures and I was wondering if making a slight change will increase performance:
1) Creates a layer and draws line
2) Creates text layer, makes selection and expands selection
3) Selects line layer below and cuts it
4) Selects folder and renames it to the label name
then this order repeats based on multiple measures...I think the biggest process it's doing is that it keeps selecting the main folder renaming it over and over. Thing is, I make tons of measurements and this process can really take awhile to do......
Would it make a difference if the renaming of the folder only occurs once and at the end of all the measurement layers? If so, can someone help me update the script so that it renames the folder based on the text label only at the end?

Updated by Bezzy Weitz (Magical Coder - a million thx for his time) & Mycort (GUI Artist & Idea Man)
Creators of functions 3 -> 7 (4/15/2012 - v0.05). Specifc code edits and additions include:
- 4 measures using "L"shaped selection
- 2 measures using crosshair selections
- 6 measures of inner/outer box
- Simultaneous Measure (Vert & Horiz -All at once)
- Arrow edge drawing (toggle function)
- Adding "var" section for easier editing of toggled functions
- Long extended edge line (8 point Detection Function)
Code snippets and advice help courtesy of (bb/)
- Working code for converting selection to paths to detect values of simultaneous measures
- Centering of labels/cut line
- Making the code faster with the addition of Script Listener

Great many thanks to Nikolaj Selvik, the developer who first and initially created this time saving tool.
- Original creator of functions 1 & 2 (Horizontal & vertical "single" selection)
- Uncentered Label
- Line edge drawing
