Change the color of the text in several .psd with actions

Is there a way to change the color of the text layers in several files in .psd (with a different text in each of them) with actions?

All the files that I have to do that with are structured in the same way - background and above a layer of text.

Here are the basics...

#target photoshop;
main();
function main(){
//select folder where PSDs are held
var selectFolder = Folder.selectDialog( "Please select folder of PSDs");
//if no folder selected quit.
if(selectFolder == null) return;
//get an array of all PSDs in the folder
var fileList = selectFolder.getFiles("*.psd");
//iterate through file list
for(var a in fileList){
var textColour = new SolidColor();
textColour.rgb.hexValue = "00ff00"; //set colour to green
open(fileList[a]);
activeDocument.activeLayer = activeDocument.artLayers[0];  //Select top layer
if(activeDocument.activeLayer.kind == LayerKind.TEXT){ //check if it is a text layer
activeDocument.activeLayer.textItem.color = textColour; //set text to colour
activeDocument.save(); //Save changes
activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES); //Close document
}else{//not a text layer so close document
 activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES); //Close document
 }
}//end of filelist
};

    You hear no doubt, is that your movie software will only recognize certain types of image file formats.  If this is the case, you will need to reformat format files to any format PNG is recognizable by the software.

  • Change the text color with the eyedropper tool

    I've seen cc Photoshop tutorials where you can change the text color by using the eyedropper tool on the color swatch Panel. When the text is selected and the color swatch Panel is open. When I chose is which color I want out the color swatch Panel all them it does to change the foreground color and return to the soil box, why it changes the color of the text, as I have seen in tutorials?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Rchjr

    When highlighted often is difficult to tell what color the text. You can work around this by doing the above, pressing ctrl-H or cmd - H on the keyboard and the highlight will be removed, but the text remains selected. Its exactly the same procedure that you use to make the mobile dotted lines disappear just leaving an active selection. Obviously the text tool must be still in use for all this to work with text.

  • How do you change the font in several text boxes?

    I just started using illustrator and I can't understand it.  Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

    I made a bunch of text boxes using the text tool.  Is there a way I can link the boxes and easily change the font?

    Thank you

    Justin

    No need to link them. Select all, and then change the font.

    As with any other object, many text objects can be selected by shift-click or drag with the rectangle Selection tool. If you make a habit of placing all the text on a dedicated layer, you can lock the other layers and just select all (Cmd + A Mac / Win Ctrl + A).

  • Acrobat Standard DC - can't change the text and text box properties

    Earlier this week, I lost the ability to change the properties of the text and text boxes.

    When I add a comment with a text box or in the text caption, I do all the time, I used to be able to change the font color, size, alignment, etc.

    Now, when I go to insert a text box or the legend, all the options in the properties bar are grayed out.

    This issue effects ONLY the text in the box and the caption functions. all the other drawing functions work very well. I can change the color, fill and the type of lines around the text, I can just change the text.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

  • Cannot change the text box.

    Adobe Acrobat DC recently auto updated to the latest version, and it seems that the new version does not change the text boxes.

    The screenshot below shows what I mean.  I added a text box and pointed the police to change the size / font style / color, but it is gray just to go out in the toolbar properties (Ctrl + E)

  • How to extend the text on several pages in 9

    My form is long and a section of the Master Page will be text with no shape field, but the text is 10 + pages, depending on the version of the terms and conditions described.  In this link, http://forums.adobe.com/message/5112687, there are a lot of discussions about how to accomplish in 8.2, but how I would accomplish in 9?  I wish I could paste pages 10 + and automatically do master stream for this section of the Page. Have tried to place a text field and also tried a text in a fluid subform, assigning several lines, keep later, but is not only of course how to set up properly.  I see the sign at the bottom of the text box, but when I saw it, it does not flow to the other pages.  Hoped to avoid setting up 10 + pages in the form, from the time these terms are updated, and it would be much faster to just be able to copy and paste from Word in a correctly set text field or subform.  Hope that makes sense and to appreciate all the advice, thank you.

    1. Get your text in Word (or anywhere where you want to change the text so that it looks right).
    2. Open a document in LiveCycle (a new one if you are starting from scratch, in any case)
    3. Select your subform page1, set the content to be Flowed (allow page breaks automatically).
    4. Add a text field (make sure it is listed under this subform page1).
    5. Change the position of the legend to zero text box and make sure allow multiple lines is verified (as well as allow page breaks). Expand a height fixed auto
    6. Click the default value for the text field. Paste this 9 page document inside.
    7. Wait a few seconds (or minutes) for LiveCycle catch up.
    8. Listen to samples and enjoy your new document with several pages paged automatically for you.

  • change the text between the loops

    I have to update an ad that has been previously created. The original pub consists of a picture and a text and logos which loop two times then stops. Publication constraints require the announcement that two loops and a certain amount of time and stop at the end of the second loop - this was done in the original pub. The customer asked where a banner appears in the ad with specific information ('apply now for the half of January... (''), changes to information in the second rotation (loop) of the ad ("at an open house date") I'm trying to find a way to do it given the limit to two loops and a time constraint. I had to condense and edit the first draft to address the constraints, so I'm not sure that I can do almost anything with the timeline? Is this a problem of action script?

    I work in CS4 and YOU 2.0

    Any help is appreciated

    Thank you

    While Actionscript could be used to solve the problem, it is not necessarily the only solution.  You could spend with two loops and extend the timeline for the equivalent length of two loops, and change the text in the second half, repeat all that happens twice during this extended period of time.

    To take an Actionscript approach to solve, you can do a simple logic check to change the text.  There are several approaches, you could take, being...  Start with the (dynamic) textfield is empty.  First check if the textfield object contains the first loop of the text and if it then assigns the second loop, but if not, assign the first text.

    If (tfield.text == "Apply now for the half of January...") {}

    TField.Text = "to a date of open doors";

    } else {}

    TField.Text = 'apply now for the half of January... '. » ;

  • Change the text in the textfield does not work

    Hello!

    Another problem, I do not know how to solve:

    I have a dynamic textfield, which lies in a graph, and based on this graphic I designed a movieclip with interpolations of fade-in and bland-out of this graph.

    However, when I play the movieclip (ctrl + enter) and I want to change the text in the textfield with textMovieclip.textfield.text = "NewText"; the text is correctly set, but the textfield object disappears from the display. When I play this movieclip with the defaulttext I put in the textfield (without changing this text) everything works fine.

    Fonts required are integrated, I is not serious if I change the text before playing the movieclip or after and textfield is not only in the back behind the scenes. And for example to change the color of the defaulttext works without any problem.

    What have I forgotten? Do I have to put another value also?
