Latest Photoshop 23.1.0 update started giving this strange error. Any idea what could be causing it and how to workaround? Happens on MacOS. ```auto TypeError: Cannot read property 'documentID' of undefined at Photoshop.get ``` ---

Where do you see this error? If it’s in Console, you should get a trace there ---

The error is coming from the customer, so logs are webpacked and compiled, stacktrace is not helpful. ```auto TypeError: Cannot read property 'documentID' of undefined at Photoshop.get (uxp://uxp-internal:1:172216) at Root (webpack-internal:///./src/index.jsx:51:15) at renderWithHooks (webpack-internal:///./node_modules/react-dom/cjs/react-dom.development.js:14803:18) at updateFunctionComponent (webpack-internal:///./node_modules/react-dom/cjs/react-dom.development.js:17034:20) at beginWork (webpack-internal:///./node_modules/react-dom/cjs/react-dom.development.js:18610:16) at e.exports.callCallback (webpack-internal:///./node_modules/react-dom/cjs/react-dom.development.js:188:14) at uxp://uxp-internal/domjs_scripts.js:2:8784 at Object.runWithNativeHandler () at I (uxp://uxp-internal/domjs_scripts.js:2:8676) at uxp://uxp-internal/domjs_scripts.js:2:8168 ``` ---

I would start figuring out what this part is ```auto Root (webpack-internal:///./src/index.jsx:51:15) ``` Maybe you then can pinpoint the location on a not packed version ---

The only thing Photoshop object related I do in my index file is checking if there is any active document present calling `ps.app.activeDocument` ---

How does this check look like and what do you do if there’s no doc? What’s on `index.jsx:51:15` ---

I think I managed to reproduce the problem in development mode, will keep digging. ---

Looks like it was a bug. I see in pre-release v23.2 it has a bugfix logged as: > UXP executeAsModal dialog cancellation =\> Cannot read property ‘documentID’ of undefined Might be related. Do you get this error while canceling a modal? ---

Most likely. Issue was when canceling modal dialog of color picker.
