# Size Marks

Size Marks is a helpful Photoshop script for web designers and front-end engineers.

Script converts rectangular marquee to labeled measurement mark. Landscape marquee → horizontal mark. Portrait or square marquee → vertical mark.

### Install

1. Download and unzip:
- [Size-Marks.jsxbin-v1.3.zip] for Photoshop CC 2015
- [Size-Marks.jsx-v1.0.zip] for Photoshop CC 2014
2. Place `Size Marks.jsxbin` in the Photoshop Scripts folder. If you have more than one version of Photoshop, place the script in the Scripts folder of each version.
- OS X: `/Applications/[Photoshop]/Presets/Scripts/`
- Windows: `C:\[Program Files]\Adobe\[Photoshop]\Presets\Scripts`
4. Restart Photoshop. The script should now be available in `File ▸ Scripts ▸ Size Marks`.
5. Next, let’s make a shortcut. `Edit ▸ Keyboard Shortcuts...`. Unfold `File` and scroll to `Scripts>`. Select `Size Marks` and set the shortcut.

**Recommended shortcut key** (must not already be in use)

- OS X: `Shift+Cmd+P`
- Windows: `Shift+Ctrl+P`

### Usage

Create a rectangular selection with Rectangular Marquee Tool (M) and use your shortcut (see Install section).

### System Requirements

The script has been tested on Photoshop CC 2014, CC 2015 on OS X Yosemite.

### Troubleshooting

If it seems like Size Marks does not work properly, first, make sure you are using the latest version of the script.

[Get the latest release](https://github.com/romashamin/Size-Marks-PS/releases/latest).

#### Required information

1. Your version of Photoshop CC. Select `Photoshop CC ▸ About Photoshop CC...` and find out a line that looks like `2015.0.1 Release` at the top of the dialog box.
2. The sequence of steps that led to the error (this will help me to reproduce the issue).
3. Provide a link to the .psd file in your Dropbox. Just remove all secret data and save as a copy.

#### How to report

1. Open the [Issues tab](https://github.com/romashamin/Size-Marks-PS/issues) and click **New issue**.
2. Sign in or register on Github.
3. Briefly describe the issue in the Title field.
