select document 1

[Ciccillotto]

I always use many open documents
from 3 to 10 documents
I need a script that immediately selects the first one as in the figure.
I tried to make an action, but it takes into account the open documents,
so when I create the action that has 3 open documents and then I want to use it when I have 6, it doesn't work.

do you have any idea how to proceed

Not sure about UXP .psjs, however, in legacy ExtendScript .jsx:

app.activeDocument = app.documents[0];

It worked fine in uxp Thanks for your help

You're welcome, there is some crossover in ES vs. UXP DOM, but it's not my default expectation that things are 1:1 so I wasn't sure without checking.

Some things work, some don't, some aren't usable.

In the ES DOM, both of these are valid:

var theDoc = app.activeDocument;
//or
var theDoc = activeDocument;

While in the UXP DOM, one can't omit the root app. path:

let theDoc = app.activeDocument;
