I think he is Chinese, so the name will be "<不透明蒙版>". But as I tested you code only work when you enter the "edit opacity mask" mode, right? To lewiscc​: 你问了很多不透明蒙版相关的问题，归根结底在于对于脚本来说它是个幻影般的存在，脚本识别不到它（可以归为bug或至少是缺陷）。解决的方法无非还是我提到的那些： 1. 脚本内嵌动作，动作中录制旋转/缩放等操作。 2. 扭曲与变换效果，跟你已经实现的移动操作一样。 3. 将整个对象建立为符号。其实我觉得这个更方便，尤其是当你要复制很多份的时候，可以显著减小文件大小。 ...

Well, this is only for test. It use object masic. If the image size(pixels) is bigger than 30*30 or 50*50, it will become very slow. Note: the image should be 72 dpi. So step 1: make sure image is 72 dpi, if not, reset it(this can be done with script); step 2: crop(not clip) the image to size like 10*10 px (contain the given pixel of cause. Not sure this can be done with script or not.) Anyway, here is the code.
