Batch Action Stopped unintended when transform selection has no change

Thanks JJMack, your solution 180degree rotation solve my problem. I usually use rectange selection.

Thanks Kukury and r-bin.

It was never a problem for me in a script I only needed a work around in Actions.

try{
    //doAction("Interactive Transform", "Actions for Scripts"); // Let the user have the final word
    InteractiveTransform()
   }
catch(e){alert("Image Transform Canceled");}
try{
  //doAction("Interactive Transform", "Actions for Scripts"); // Let user have last say
  InteractiveTransform()
 }
catch(e){}
//==================== Interactive Transform ==============
function InteractiveTransform() {
  // Menu Edit>Free transform
    var desc1 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var ref1 = new ActionReference();
    ref1.putEnumerated(cTID('Mn  '), cTID('MnIt'), cTID('FrTr'));
    desc1.putReference(cTID('null'), ref1);
    executeAction(cTID('slct'), desc1, DialogModes.NO);
};

This is similar to the bug in many versions of CC (in 2018 there is exactly).

Instead of calling the menu, use the transform command with small parameters, for example, 100.01%

$.level = 0; try{/*code for transformation*/}catch(err){}

You may also do it without try...catch statement by adding to your transformation code the part that I guess is missing:

dsc = new ActionDescriptor()
dsc.putUnitDouble(stringIDToTypeID('width'), stringIDToTypeID('percentUnit'), 100.000001)
dsc.putUnitDouble(stringIDToTypeID('height'), stringIDToTypeID('percentUnit'), 100.000001)

Note that dsc is the same you use in last line of your code before DialogModes.ALL, so you must change it to proper one.
