Place Embbeded using script

[mslino65]

Hi everyone!

I'm new to PS script and trying to use the code below to place an embedded image from 100 pixels from the bottom of the main image, but it's not working. The embedded image it's placed in the center (vertically and horizontally)

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;

var w = myDoc.width.value;
var h = myDoc.height.value;

var fileRef = new File("F:/Logo/logo.png");
var idPlc = charIDToTypeID("Plc ");
var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
var idIdnt = charIDToTypeID("Idnt");
desc.putInteger(idIdnt, 52);
var idnull = charIDToTypeID("null");
desc.putPath(idnull, fileRef);

// Set the placement options
var desc2 = new ActionDescriptor();
var idWdth = charIDToTypeID("Wdth");
var idPxl = charIDToTypeID("#Pxl");
desc2.putUnitDouble(idWdth, idPxl, w); // Width (replace with actual width of your image)
var idHght = charIDToTypeID("Hght");
var idPxl = charIDToTypeID("#Pxl");
desc2.putUnitDouble(idHght, idPxl, h); // Height (replace with actual height of your image)
var idVrtS = charIDToTypeID("VrtS");
var idPxl = charIDToTypeID("#Pxl");
desc2.putUnitDouble(idVrtS, idPxl, -3900); // Vertical offset from document bottom (-3900 = 100 pixels from bottom and centered vertically)
var idHrzS = charIDToTypeID("HrzS");
var idPxl = charIDToTypeID("#Pxl");
desc2.putUnitDouble(idHrzS, idPxl, 0); // Horizontal offset from center

desc.putObject(charIDToTypeID("T   "), charIDToTypeID("Ofst"), desc2);

executeAction(idPlc, desc, DialogModes.NO);

 I could not identify what was wrong nor place the embedded image where I needed it to be (100 pixels from the bottom).

Regards.

After placing, I'd use the following code snippet to align the layer horizontally as required, then align vertically so that the bottom edge of the layer is at the bottom of the canvas:

Finally, I'd then translate the layer up  the required amount of pixels:

I do the same as Stephan, just use the translate command to move it where it needs to go.
