In Photoshop CC 2017 there is a new property panel "Pixel Layer Properties".
How do I get its values using Photoshop Javascript? I have a script which do certain action based upon layer condition. I want to add a condition at line #37 that if W*H from "Pixel Layer Property" is equal to or greater than 3/4 of Canvas dimension then goto line # 71 and skip the execution of lines #38 to #68 otherwise execute the next line (i.e. # 38). I made it from my other actions and some scripts using ActionToJavascript. I Can do minor manipulation in Javascripts and also I do read the Photoshop Javascript reference 2015, but there is nothing there for "Pixel Layer Properties" because it introduced in 2017.
Here is my script:
#target photoshop

Hi ,
the properties panel only shows width and height and left and top values for artLayer.
This can be done with DOM code:
var startRulerUnits = app.preferences.rulerUnits;
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
var bds = activeDocument.activeLayer.bounds;
alert("width: " + (bds[2]-bds[0]));
alert("height: " + (bds[3]-bds[1]));
alert("left: " + bds[0]);
alert("top: " + bds[1]);
app.preferences.rulerUnits = startRulerUnits;
Have fun
