Dear experts
I have attached a PSD herewith.
I want to iterate through the layers and find the colors of them.
The layers can be either SOLID FILL layers or NORMAL layers which are rasterized from the COLOR FILL layers. So they have only one color, that is a known factor. Moreover the layers can be like a border, the inside part can be transparent, like layer 4.
Getting the colors from the SOLID FILL layers is very easy, but for NORMAL layers we need to check the average color or the most prominent color.
We have the code for picking up the most prominent color from a document from my earlier post -
https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-discussions/adobe-script-selecting-the-most-promi...
But the above mentioned code is for picking up the most prominent color from the whole document, and not from a layer. Hence I am not able to use this code for my purpose. I have spent a lot of time to modify the above code for my purpose, it is now looping through all the layers, but it's a nasty code; it needs a lot of modification. But since it's AM code, it's beyound my knowledge 🙂 Also it's not working properly. For the 4th layer, it is showing that the most prominent color is the white, because it's flattening the layers. So I need to delete the background layer. Then it would give me the most prominent color. I tried to delete the background layers, but I am not able to. How can I delete the background layer from the temp file colors.raw??? My code -
const DE_THRESHOLD = 15, RESIZE_TO = 35;
for (var x=0; x<app.activeDocument.layerSets.length; x++) {
var layerSet = app.activeDocument.layerSets[x];
if (layerSet.name=="Images" || layerSet.name=="Images_1" || layerSet.name=="Images_2") {
for (var layerIndex = 0; layerIndex < layerSet.layers.length; layerIndex++) {
var layer = layerSet.layers[layerIndex];
app.activeDocument.activeLayer = layer;
var bounds = layer.bounds;
var width = bounds[2].value - bounds[0].value;
var height = bounds[3].value - bounds[1].value;
app.documents.add( width, height, 300, "temp",NewDocumentMode.RGB, DocumentFill.WHITE,1.0, BitsPerChannelType.EIGHT, "Adobe RGB (1998)" );

So can you please modify this code so that it can currectly pickup the colors in all the cases?
Thanks in advance...
