: Add class to layer in Photoshop How can I simply add a class to a layer in Photoshop CS5? That class should hold properties like "fill color", "size", etc. I'm very new to scripting Photoshop

You don't. The classes that are provided by the applications you are working with aren't extensible. But, what you can do to get around this is to create a record making use of Applescript's dynamic typing.

set myLayerInformation to {layer:psLayerObj, fill color:fillColorObj, width:mWidth, height:mHeight}
set targetLayer to layer of myLayerInformation
-->RESULT: psLayerObj


The records, in turn, could be held in a list that you can maintain along side the layers. It isn't elegant, but it should get the job done.
