fusion of work plans / documents

I have a lot of files that need to be merged.  I want to make a script that will take everything, including layers and merge them to another document.  I can open Document 1 and 2 of the Document and run the script.  He take any document 1 and move it to the document two and place 2 to 3 inches left of the artboard of document 2.

I know that some scripts, but I have not tested with work plans.  I'm not asking to write the script, I just need pushed in the right direction, I'm over a period of time, I have more than 3 k files that need to be merged.

I have no underlayment on all work plans, it's a 3 total layers, 2 layers are full of objects and the last layer has only an object inside.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you very much.

  • Why the my canvas size is bigger than my work plan?

    Hello

    I'm working on a larger project, where I have mulitple PSDs linked in a single document. The individual DSP that have all plans of work that are the same size, but in inspection of the size of the canvas on these documents vary considerably in size.

    This causes me some discomfort because:

    -When you place the PSD files in the main document, the bounding box of the PSD is much larger than the graphics I want to place.

    -Second, if I want to resize the size of the canvas on the current related DSP, I am trying, it shrinks the chart down much more that what I would actually. This causes me to have to change the size of each graphical element, which sometimes can be quite tedious.

    In my view, that the size of the canvas should be able to resize the artboard size I'm working on, if only when I have a single work plan I'm working on (which is currently the case).

    Is there a way to adjust PS for the canvas size will correspond to the size of the artboard? Whereas if I adjust the length of the arboard, the size of the canvas reflects the change in size?

    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, it is still an open question in our backlog of work.

    The following workaround solution is clumsy, but should work:

    1. choose the tool work plan.

    2 Unger, the gear icon, deselect auto size canvas. This setting affects only the current document.

    3. adjust the size of your canvas as needed using the Image-> canvas size command. It will remain at that size until you change it again manually.

    Work plan documents do not show the extent of the Web, but there are ways to see: layers of filling (with disabled auto-nid) under all work plans, for example.

  • How get rid you of the "work Plan" and just opened a "Document?

    I am trying to open a new blank document, but the resulting page has the little word 'Work Plan' in the upper left corner on the page. I don't know what a work plan is not something perhaps in Illustrator. I wanted not a "work plan" and even spelling wants to force me to put "target".

    If someone could tell me how and why I'm getting this and help me a little to open a Photoshop Document clear, white, new, I would be so grateful. If you want to tell me briefly what is a 'work plan' and knowing I don't want one and probably never employeront such a thing...

  • Automaticly loading pdf files in the document (multiple pages, on several work plans) model.

    Hello

    I created a few models photos in Photoshop for a prospectus (8 pages) placed on 4 work plans (front, two rear and inner pages).

    At the present time, I have every linked page (I followed some tutorials), so that when I click on the layer, it opens a new window where I can paste into the page and save/close (which is that the function called again?) )

    As I will do this regularly and the order of the pages will always be the samen, is there a way to automate this?

    Meaning: linking the model to PDF and have it automatically choose each page and place it in the right order/location?

    Any help is appreciated!

    Thank you

    I don't know of any way to import multiple files at a time. I agree... your action does not save much if anything. I was wrong.  Perhaps using an action is not your solution.  You can try using loading files in the stack. Who would get at least all the imported files at the same time.

  • Export of work plans that jpg randomly adds a pixel to the document

    I created a document of 10 pages to 1200px x 1200px. When I export the pages as jpg at 72 dpi for web, some of the files become a randomly added pixel. So the first page will be 1200 x 1200 properly but the 2nd page is 1200 x 1201, and the third is 1201 x 1201 and the fourth is 1200 x 1200, etc.. I have confirmed that all pages are the same size (1200 x 1200) and I made sure the default units are defined in pixels. Anyone know what could be causing this? Strangely if I select 150 dpi as output all come out as it should to 2500 x 2500 with no extra pixels. I hope someone can help me with this, as it is screwing up placing the images on the website. I've have to run a batch every time to resize them at 1200 x 1200.

    Here is a picture showing what I mean.

    AddedPixel.jpg

    check each work plan's sitting a measure specific pixel, not 4613.77px like you have one shown. Make sure that all work plans are a specific position X and Y pixel whole values for example 4613px. as AI allows them to sit at randome positions.

  • For a 24-page document, you would use several work plans? Or another method?

    Normally, I work on the single page for printing files and lack experience with several work plans.

    Now, as part of a hobby that I conceive a set of 12 cards, each the size of an A3 (/ ~ tabloid) cut in half the long way, front and back.  So a total of 24 large pages, full text and images.  (No text running from one page to another, or anything complicated regarding alignment on all pages).

    Would you recommend doing 24 work plans into one document?  Who will be too heavy and boring, because of their size and graphic account?  Or it will work?

    Is there a better solution, apart from 24 separate files?

    Thank you very much!

  • You can lock overview of a particular document or a work plan?

    Currently, it doesn't seem to be able to select the source document preview in Photoshop. Is there a secret setting I miss or is it something that is planned for future versions? Or maybe just the option to disable it for certain documents?

    I'm widely using smart objects and related objects and switch between them at all times makes overview less useful I initially hoped.

    UseCase: I have a main preview file with several plans of work that uses active links to external files of masters where I do my art production.

    Currently:

    Work in my preview document with work plans works perfectly. But...

    Whenever I go to a large file of production (6000 x 4000 + px psd), photoshop passes the source noticed my active document, triggering a raster/transform who takes several seconds to resolve before I can do anything. So any change I make to this file retriggers, causing another blockade progress bar.

    The only way to work in the production size files is to unplug an excerpt entirely until I want to see in the other document. Is not ideal.

    In addition, I can't work in a smart object or a linked file and see it update the preview of a file on my device. I still have to make the outline of the my document folder to see it on the device.

    Ideally:

    I can clarify my overview document that is open that document 'source' or 'Preview' in the Preview Panel. In this way, I can work independently on the communicating objects and see that it updated on the device without it blowing updates constantly and who need to break my permutation between active windows workflow.

    If anyone has a solution or a solution that does not involve a new CC version, I'm all ears!

    Hey, Max,.

    Currently, overview of the unit will only preview active document via Photoshop.  Unfortunately, there is not a way to specify another non-active document in Photoshop to get an overview.  Very good suggestion for further consideration if.

    A quick observation, shouldn't you be blocked to continue to make changes in Photoshop, you switch between open documents.  Even if the Preview on the device has not yet caught up to your current changes, you should be able to continue to work on your documents in Photoshop.  The Preview on the device should eventually catch up with your latest changes in your current document.

  • New document always opened as work plan

    for some reason, a few weeks ago, my photoshop began to open new documents such as work plans, I am 100% sure that I always select 'Web' by Type of Document, but when I create, it always shows as working, it's quite annoying, how can I turn it off?

    I know this is an old thread... It still applies in CC 2015.1.2

    The solution is actually very simple, do not use Web and Mobile App Design and iconography as a Type of Document they appear only default to the artboard.

    All others (outside of the artboard itself produces a normal document.

    While I understand the logic in the logic of automatic adjustment of artboard for Web etc I don't see why he SHOULD...

  • Is it possible to resize all work plans at the time the way that you used to be able to do in the configuration of document?

    I have a document with 20 work plans. When I resize a that only changes that are. I'm in CS5. Is it possible to resize all work plans at the time the way that you used to be able to do in the configuration of document? Thank you very much!

    Wade_Zimmerman wrote:

    It's a good script but t vrry does not resize some plans of work and not wouldn't

    @ Wade

    You can recode and a confirm in the loop to determine if you want to resize the work plan current in the iteration of the loop, if no installation then jump her, if yes then prompt for sizes and move forward. Then you can resize regardless of those that you wish as such, some and not others. You can even distinguish with each confirm and ask what work targeted plan by displaying its name. I tested this approach and it seems to work ok, but not super stylish, of course, because if you have tons of work plans, it would be a large number of guests/entry. You could lesson prompts by combining the width/height in a single guest. But then again, even at this time sound just as effective to resize each manually via the window of work plans, probably the same amount of work/time user input processing and the targeting of individual work plans. You could perhaps also create script window for multiple entry for plans of work desired, may be based on the selected and build your dialogue window accordingly, I suppose that, at this time, it would provide a more effective approach for this kind of thing that you seem to be describing.

    But that all said that we would be well beyond the original request that CarlosCanto already so generously filled. He might have some comments on your comments.

  • Why do my work order plan getting all messed up when I try to add new work plans?

    Mac, HAVE CC

    If I create an icon for fine UX library. I have, say, 20 icons on 20 separate work plans. I have the following configuration: 4 lines and 5 columns. Create mu icons, name each work plan to export properly, and all is well.

    But when I come back to this document and try to add work plans, they add no way to 5 x 4.

    Very strangely, they are added in random places.

    Then I try again to "Reorganize the work plans", and they are willing, but once again, in a random order. My names are so disconnected from the previous relevant work plans.

    It's so frustrating. Is there something I'm missing, if it please or do not know, to add better control?

    Thank you very much!!!

    I think everyone goes through a similar confusion with work plans, but once to slow down and realize some items, they begin to work as

    1. Look at your work plan and that one is highlighted it's the artboard select
    2. You can easily unwittingly switch to another plan of work, by simply selecting another time with the selection tool. "Here, I've selected an item on the 4th game of darts and now the ' Live from the corners" artbaord is selected.
    3. When you use the new work plan command that adds a new after the selected work plan, some people waiting to be added as the last page.
    4. There are some bugs like when you run out of space on the right. I have the last elected artboard, but try to add a new work plan gives me an error because the top row is out of room who shovel have nothing to do with it.

    In summary

    • Name your work plans that you can easily get confused, that it is worth
    • Use reorganize artbaords often
    • Reorganize work plans does not care the physical position on the screen of the work plan, it transposes numbers (1 to 11 in my example above)
    • If you want to copy of artboard on the artboard 2 1. Copy the artboard 1 form, select any element of the artbord 2 and use the paste in front or to the rear. You can also use the work plans Panel to select your target artbaord.
  • Work plans and layers

    Hello

    I created a work plan for a business card and then created a second to the front of the card.

    How to make it so that when I click on the respective work plan it has its own set of layers?

    Now even when I click on this new work plan and type text that everything seems to go with the layers I created on my first work plan?

    Is there no way to their separation?

    Thank you

    Paul.

    Layers are a document element, not a work one plan. That said, you can select all the layers in a new composite layer for the first artboard using the command in the layer Panel dialog box. Then create another layer for the second. Name the front and back layers.

    I can't find anyone else having this problem. Am I the only one? How can I solve this problem? It is to be a huge problem for web design. And he did it for all of my projects as web design he updated to have work plans.

    Hi Nicole,.

    I'm sure that it is a problem that we followed. We have not addressed it yet, but it's on our list of things to fix.

    Plan of work documents have a canvas in auto-expand; This is part of the user experience, which gives a feeling of infinite to the document; You can place things anywhere in the view, and they should remain visible no matter where you drag. In order to maintain this illusion, paint us the entire surface to mate with the same color outside work plans.

    Hide us this canvas from you, even if it's still there. You can see how big it is at any time by choosing "Image > canvas... size. ». That size will change as things move around, getting bigger and smaller than necessary. The hidden canvas size will break to the next more or less 'limit of diamonds", which is nominally in increments of 1024 pixels. This is done for performance.

    The problem is that the export code is really not updated as the work plans can develop and reduce the canvas. When you export a document of work plan, it looks at the current size of the Web and uses only. That's why you get that extra white space. This extra space problem happens also for other things, like thumbnails of document. We agree it's pretty boring, and as I said, it's on our list to fix.

    Try this workaround:

    1. download your ready to export document.

    2. in the work plan tool, select the gear icon (top tool bar, far right) and uncheck auto-size canvas

    3. Select the Rectangle tool and cover the artboard from edge to edge. (Snap allows here)

    4. Select the crop option. This can reduce the canvas to just the boundaries of the artboard.

    5 export under..., choose your format, for example PNG. and export.

    6. don't check any extra white space.

    Note that "Web auto-size" is a property of document-sticky and is saved with the document.

    For example, clicking outside of the workspace, after selecting the map tool, create a work plan and its corresponding layer in the layers panel fine,
