: Place every object from a single layer to a new layer in InDesign is there a possibility to place every object automatically from one single layer into different new layers in InDesign? Thanks!

This script should work for a single page scenario. It splits up all your top level page items into layers and should keep them in the correct order:

// @target InDesign

var doc = app.activeDocument;
var page = doc.layoutWindows[0].activePage;

var items = page.allPageItems.reverse();

for (var i = 1; i < items.length; i++) {
if(!(items[i].parent.constructor.name === "Spread")) continue;

var newLayer = doc.layers.add();
items[i].itemLayer = newLayer;
}
