Re: get layer bounds incorrect with layer.bounds

It may be rounding. It may also be that when Photoshop files that shape with pixels it may do some anti-aliasing. I just tride a shapr the had a inner 1 px stroke. Snap to on with center guide lines.

// enable double-clicking from Mac Finder or Windows Explorer

#target photoshop // this command only works in Photoshop CS2 and higher

// bring application forward for double-click events

app.bringToFront();

// Save the current preferences

var startRulerUnits = app.preferences.rulerUnits;

// Set Photoshop to use pixels

app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;

var LB = activeDocument.activeLayer.bounds;

var LWidth = (LB[2].value) - (LB[0].value);

var LHeight = (LB[3].value) - (LB[1].value);

alert("'" + activeDocument.activeLayer.name + "' Layer Bounds\nTop Left " +  LB[0].value + "X," +  LB[1].value + "Y   Bottom Right "  +  LB[2].value + "X," +  LB[3].value

  + "Y\nWidth " +  LWidth + "px   Height " + LHeight +"px"

  + "\nLayer center relative to canvas " + (LB[0].value + LWidth/2) + "X," +  (LB[1].value + LHeight/2) +"Y" );

// Return the app preferences

app.preferences.rulerUnits = startRulerUnits;
