I'm getting the following error with the script below.

Please help.

 

Error 8800: General Photoshop error occurred. This functionality may not be available in this version of Photoshop.

- Could not complete the command because of a disk error.

Try to replace

for (var n = i + 1; n < 3141; ++n)

with

for (var n = i + 1; n < 256; ++n)

 

P.S. I did not delve into the essence of the script. You also did not explain what you wanted to do and with what.

Thanks for the fix, couldn't see what was right in front of me. I'm trying to divide all the different colors in a photo into separate layers, I was trying to expand the number of colors this code pulls to make more layers.

Photoshop only supports 8,000 layers  an image can have more than 8,000 colors.  You do not want to edit a document with 8,000 layers.  Index color only support 256 colors.  However,  that will degrade you image severely. What are you intending to do with these color layers?

After more tests, I realized 256 colors are enough to show the color variations in one painting.

It sound like the action failed. Is the Action set in your   How are the variables  "actionSet" and "setDescriptor" set. What action step is the action manager code for.
