size change is good

but  i postion is error

i would like to make same posion ?

 

pls  can you say porblem?

 

 

var doc = activeDocument;

var t = doc.artLayers.getByName("or");

var a = doc.artLayers.getByName("de");

var textHeight = t.bounds[3].value - t.bounds[1].value;

var artHeight = a.bounds[3].value - a.bounds[1].value;

var textwidth = t.bounds[2].value - t.bounds[0].value;

var artwidth = a.bounds[2].value - a.bounds[0].value;


a.resize(textwidth/artwidth*100, textHeight/artHeight*100, AnchorPosition.MIDDLECENTER);


var width = t.bounds[3]-a.bounds[3];
var length = t.bounds[2]-a.bounds[2];

a.translate( width, length )

Are you actually getting an error or is it not lining up how you want it? You are lining up the bottom right corner. Also, you might want to put in .value on the calculations for moving.

They made the calculation for moving the layer based on the layers originals bounds. They changed the layer bounds when they resized the layer so the move they made was incorrect for the layers change size  the calculations used the top left corners in the calculation not the layers centers. I think   It look like the used the bound after the resize. still the  move was off and  adding  the .value did not solve the issue so I just aligned the layer to the text layer since the size was right. They switch x and y values

 

 

Taken a closer look I assumed they used top left corner look closer I was wrong changed their code to the top left works.

 

 

 

var orig_ruler_units = app.preferences.rulerUnits;
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;	// Set the ruler units to PIXELS

var doc = activeDocument;
var t = doc.artLayers.getByName("or");
var a = doc.artLayers.getByName("de");
var textHeight = t.bounds[3].value - t.bounds[1].value;
var artHeight = a.bounds[3].value - a.bounds[1].value;
var textwidth = t.bounds[2].value - t.bounds[0].value;
var artwidth = a.bounds[2].value - a.bounds[0].value;
a.resize(textwidth/artwidth*100, textHeight/artHeight*100, AnchorPosition.MIDDLECENTER);

var width = t.bounds[0].value-a.bounds[0].value;
var length = t.bounds[1].value-a.bounds[1].value;
a.translate( width, length )

app.preferences.rulerUnits = orig_ruler_units;	// Reset units to original settings
