Transforms guides into lines [2017]

Thanks for you help. It seems to be solved now, with the script unchanged.

I redownloaded the one I send to my colleague, deleted the one in the folder, re-added it again and it's working.

Cheers

Yep.... couldn't attach a .jsx or .zip so just changed extenstion

I just get a Syntax Error:

This one here.....

#target photoshop;

if (documents.length) app.activeDocument.suspendHistory('Stroke Guides', 'main()');

function singleLine(pos, pixelPos) {

    var desc5 = new ActionDescriptor();

    var ref4 = new ActionReference();

    ref4.putProperty(charIDToTypeID('Chnl'), charIDToTypeID('fsel'));

    desc5.putReference(charIDToTypeID('null'), ref4);

    var desc6 = new ActionDescriptor();

    if (pos == "Direction.VERTICAL") {

        desc6.putUnitDouble(charIDToTypeID('Left'), charIDToTypeID('#Pxl'), Number(pixelPos));

        desc5.putObject(charIDToTypeID('T   '), charIDToTypeID('Sngc'), desc6);

    } else {

        desc6.putUnitDouble(charIDToTypeID('Top '), charIDToTypeID('#Pxl'), Number(pixelPos));

        desc5.putObject(charIDToTypeID('T   '), charIDToTypeID('Sngr'), desc6);

    }

    executeAction(charIDToTypeID('setd'), desc5, DialogModes.NO);

};

function main() {
	
	app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;

    activeDocument.artLayers.add();

    activeDocument.activeLayer.name = "Stroked Guides";

    app.showColorPicker();

    var newColour = app.foregroundColor;

    var guideSize = Window.prompt("Please enter Stroke Size!", "1");

    var guides = app.activeDocument.guides;

    var guideArray = [];

    for (var g = 0; g < guides.length; g++) {

        singleLine(guides[g].direction.toString(), Number(guides[g].coordinate.value).toFixed(0));

        if (Number(guideSize) > 1)

            activeDocument.selection.stroke(newColour, Number(guideSize), StrokeLocation.OUTSIDE, ColorBlendMode.NORMAL, 100, false);

        activeDocument.selection.stroke(newColour, Number(guideSize), StrokeLocation.INSIDE, ColorBlendMode.NORMAL, 100, false);

    }

    activeDocument.selection.deselect();

};

I can't seem to get this to work on an M1 Mac, whilst my colleague can on an Intel one.

Does it need to be updated for this?

(I have no idea about scripting!)

@r-bin,

worked perfectly

Thanks.

So that was your first post over here

it seems this is not compatible with the latest CC 2018.

I created a new 800 x 800 document, then dragged 2 guides in (1 horizontally centered and 1 vertically centered). Basically 2 guides marking the center point.

I then run the script and all I get is a 1 pixel horizontal sroke across tacross the top (a few pixels down), and a 1 pixel vertical stroke on the left hand side (a few pixes across)?

Can anyone assist?

Thank you all in advance.

One can assess the guides’ information and create Paths based on that which in turn could be used as the basis of a Shape Layer with Stroke (and merged with some other Layer if necessary) for example.
