I have this script that was originally created here that makes slices out of art layers, layer sets and turns off the visibility "locked "background layer( this background layer is not sliced). Sometimes I don't have locked background layer but do have a bottom/last art layer. It does turn this bottom/last layer off but it actually makes a slice out of this. Is there a way to stop this from making slices of bottom/last layer?
Code: Select allfunction userSliceFromActiveLayer() {
var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putClass( stringIDToTypeID('slice') );
desc.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref );
var sliceDesc = new ActionDescriptor();
sliceDesc.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Type'), stringIDToTypeID('sliceType'), charIDToTypeID('Lyr ') );
var layerRef = new ActionReference();
layerRef.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), charIDToTypeID('Ordn'), charIDToTypeID('Trgt') );
sliceDesc.putReference( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), layerRef );
desc.putObject( charIDToTypeID('Usng'), stringIDToTypeID('slice'), sliceDesc );
executeAction( charIDToTypeID('Mk '), desc, DialogModes.NO );
};
function nameActiveSlice( name ) {
var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID('slice'), charIDToTypeID('Ordn'), charIDToTypeID('Trgt') );
desc.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref );
var sliceDesc = new ActionDescriptor();
sliceDesc.putString( charIDToTypeID('Nm '), name );
sliceDesc.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID('sliceImageType'), stringIDToTypeID('sliceImageType'), charIDToTypeID('Img ') );
desc.putObject( charIDToTypeID('T '), stringIDToTypeID('slice'), sliceDesc );
executeAction( charIDToTypeID('setd'), desc, DialogModes.NO );
};
