Thanks for the reply.
This is the Mockup Structure, I know that SO1 and SO2 aren't relevant for this script, because it works with the selected SO. It's just a remain of another script of you that i have tried out. (Which is exactly what i am looking for, but it closes itself after running.)
I also have hundreds of images which need to be inserted into this mockup.
Regarding your second post: I think its the exact same script, just the comments are changed? Saving as a JPEG works perfectly fine, but only for the selected SO and i would like to replace both with one run of the script.
Just did a test and the results seem as intended.
the selected replacement images
the original layered image and the resulting images.
Can you provide the layered image and some replacement images for testing?
Try the following Script, it got me these results.

Jes, i have tried your script, which also looked very promising. I have created a custom Template which mimics the SOs. Running the script "BatchMultiImageCollage" works.
Problems are:
1. No output is being saved, the result is one open psd with placed images in the right spots.
2. Even when setting Layer Styles, nothing i changing in the ouput document.
When using "BatchMockupTemplate.jsx" with the Mockup which has 3 Layers, one Background an two SOs i get this error.
Really appreciate your time looking into this.
Wallace
