Hi @aniri5j9ox8tw2ln and others, I'm not sure if the script Peter posted might do the trick, but I've written my own version for fun. Maybe it will be useful, too. I don't duplicate to new documents, because then you lose lots of document settings. It's a quick script so will definitely have bugs in some cases.

Hey @dublove I find the functions not easy to use for me, so I've refactored the code—not as much as I want to, but at least to make it easier to work with (I hope!).

Hi @dublove the variable is out of scope. Roughly speaking, a variable declared in a Function 1 cannot be accessed from Function 2 unless (a) the variable is declared as a global—not good practice as a rule, or (b) the Function 2 is declared inside Function 1, or (c) the variable is passed to Function 2 as a parameter.   To fix your code, I just moved several functions up into the myDisplayDialog function like option (b) above.   There are cleaner ways to do it, but this was quick. If you are keen to learn my preferred approach, see my other scripts where I use a `settings` variable and a `ui` function. This structure allows me to easily run the script without the UI, for example. - Mark   /* CropMarks.jsx Draws crop and/or registration marks around the selected object or objects.
