Hello,
I want to divide selected area into a specified number of rows/columns and place a rectangle shape inside each grid unit.
I am very newbie to scripting so please help me:)

Try this:
...#target photoshop
var row = 3;
var column = 3;
if(app.documents.length>0){
var doc = activeDocument;
try{
var sBounds = doc.selection.bounds;
var sWidth = (parseFloat(sBounds[2]) -parseFloat(sBounds[0]))/column;
var sHeight = (parseFloat(sBounds[3]) -parseFloat(sBounds[1]))/row;
var leftSide = parseFloat (sBounds[0]);
var topSide = parseFloat (sBounds[1]);
for(var i=0;i<row;i++){
leftSide = parseFloat (s

Thank you for your attention JJMack, not quite what I'm looking for, thank you. I'm creating a custom dialog box to use with the Chuck Uebele script .... I just need to create an editable space between columns and rows. I do not know how to assign the value of the variable to the code. Chuck Uebele Would you like to add this function?
could you help me edit the code?
I added the variable
var spaceSize = 10;
and modify this:
for(var i=0;i<row;i++){
leftSide = parseFloat (sBounds[0]);
for(var j=0;j<column;j++){
Create_Rectangle (topSide, leftSide, topSide + sHeight, leftSide + sWidth)
leftSide += sWidth + spaceSize // spaceSize here
}
topSide += sHeight + spaceSize // spaceSize here
}
Tick extends out of the selected area!

I'll have to look at it later. Just an error with the math.
If it works, please share it here! This script is very useful to me. Thank you!
Perfect! It worked perfectly well. Now I can make a much more complete dialog box.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge Chuck Uebele
