Re: Script to copy Layer/Group to another Open Document?

Hi @boo radley 2013,

do you mean something like this?

// LayerPaste2anotherDoc.jsx
// https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1496531

// regards pixxxelschubser

var aDoc = app.activeDocument;
var AllDocs = app.documents;
var actLay = aDoc.activeLayer;

if (AllDocs.length > 1) {
var itemDoc = null;
actLay.copy ();

var win = new Window("dialog","Copy the active layer");
this.windowRef = win;
win.Txt1 = win.add ("statictext", undefined, "Paste in which open document?");
win.NewList=win.add ("dropdownlist", undefined, AllDocs);

win.NewList.selection = 0;
itemDoc = win.NewList.selection.index;

win.cancelBtn = win.add("button", undefined, "Abbruch");
win.quitBtn = win.add("button", undefined, "Ok");
win.defaultElement = win.quitBtn;
win.cancelElement = win.cancelBtn;
win.quitBtn.onClick = function() {
win.close();
}

win.NewList.onChange= function () {
    itemDoc = win.NewList.selection.index;    return itemDoc;    }

win.show();

app.activeDocument = app.documents[itemDoc];
app.activeDocument.paste();
app.refresh();
} else {
    alert ("No other documents open")    }

Have fun
