Hi guys, I've been trying to come up with a script that unlocks all layers, groups and nested layers in a PSD file, but unsuccessfully.

I think it should be simple, but I can't make it work. And I need to achieve this by script, so later I can do some more tweaking.

Any help??

thanks so much!!!

Correct answer r-bin

app.runMenuItem(stringIDToTypeID("selectAllLayers"));
var d = new ActionDescriptor();
var r = new ActionReference();
r.putEnumerated(stringIDToTypeID("layer"), stringIDToTypeID("ordinal"), stringIDToTypeID("targetEnum"));
d.putReference(stringIDToTypeID("null"), r);
var d1 = new ActionDescriptor();
var d2 = new ActionDescriptor();
d2.putBoolean(stringIDToTypeID("protectNone"), true);
d1.putObject(stringIDToTypeID("layerLocking"), stringIDToTypeID("layerLocking"), d2);
d.putObject(stringIDToTypeID("to"), stringIDToTypeID("layer"), d1);
executeAction(stringIDToTypeID("set"), d, DialogModes.NO);
app.runMenuItem(stringIDToTypeID("selectNoLayers"));
