Hi guys, i just want to ask how to change the position of the layer to top left in the art board using script. I have a code here that i found through searching but it will only change the position to the center of the art board and i tried changing it to make the position to top left but i cant seem to make it right. can you guys please help me. it would be a huge help, The code is below.

var docRef = app.activeDocument;

   with (docRef) {

   rulerOrigin = [0,0];

   var docVB = visibleBounds;

 

   var transX = (width / 2) - ((docVB[0] + docVB[2]) / 2);

   var transY = (height / 2) - ((docVB[1] + docVB[3]) / 2);

  

   for (var i = 0; i < layers.length; i++) {

   for (var j = 0; j < layers.pageItems.length;j++) {

   layers.pageItems.translate(transX, transY);

  }

  }

  }

If the rulerOrigin works and makes your top-left of the artboard at [0,0] then without translation it may be possible to simply set the position of the art to the coordinates explicitly:

layers.pageItems.top = 0;

layers.pageItems.left = 0;

Try to see what this would do?

Bonjour à tous,

Si j'ai bien compris la demande de https://forums.adobe.com/people/john+jayd21181923

ce script devrait convenir.

    var docRef = app.activeDocument;
    with (docRef) {
      var rect = artboards[0].artboardRect;
      var docVB = visibleBounds;
      var transX = rect[0]-docVB[0];
      var transY = rect[1]-docVB[1];
        for (var j = 0; j < pageItems.length;j++) {
          pageItems.translate(transX,transY);
        }
    }

for(i = 0; i < layers.length; i++){
          layers.top = 0;

          layers.left = 0;

}

layers are containers, there's no position for them. You position the items inside layers.
