LayerComp
A snapshot of a state of the layers in a document (can be used to view different page layouts or
compostions).
Note:
Because the
LayerComp
class is also a property of the
Document
object, you use the property name,
layerComp
, rather than the class name,
LayerComp
, in your code.
The following example uses correct syntax to set the comment property value for a
LayerComp
object named
myLayerComp
:
activeDocument.layerComp(“myLayerComp”).comment = “View from shoreline”
The following example, which uses an upper case
L
in the object name, is incorrect:
activeDocument.LayerComp(“myLayerComp”).comment = “View from shoreline”
