• How to use smart objects to make models?

  Hey guys,.

  I was download a few models to use in my wallet and I want to start making my own for some I can not find on the web. I managed to do an asset realistic looking for what I want, but I don't know how to add text and other things. Usually, when I open a downloaded PSD mockup I double-click on the smart object, edit the content, press on save and BOOM it is perspective for whatever I change.

  However, I made dynamic object and I am trying to edit the content, so when I double click it just opens the new and all purpose that I created ad, but it does not save the prospect. If that makes sense... (see the screenshots)

  So my question is,

  How to make a dynamic object to change the content (text, images, logo, etc. etc.) on a plain PSB and PSD so it registers in the corner or point of view I want? Is there something different that I do. Can we make a step by step guide?

  It's my design until I double click on the smart layer

  

  Here is the image when I double click on the active layer (not exactly what I want).

  

  Here's a mockup I downloaded when I double click on the next show pictures of what I want.

  

  That's what I want to do in my design of the original, but how do I get the text to do it with a smart object? I want to change the text in my design and apply (not necessarily this design, but my own) to my dynamic object (first image), I created in photoshop. How can I do this?

  

  Make the text of the same size or larger and put it into a smart object: filter > convert to smart object.  Without it, you can turn the text, but you do not have as many transform options.  Once you have the text in the dynamic object, select Edition > transform > warp.  Then you can drag the corner of the text points to fit the shape of the card.

  

• How to detect smart objects in Photoshop?

  Hello

  I need to detect the smart objects files related to local level to specific JavaScript locations in the HTML5 extension. How can I do this?

  Consider this pseudo-code:

    if (app.documents.length)
    {
      var doc = app.activeDocument;
      for (var ilayer = 0; ilayer < doc.artLayers.length; ilayer++)
      {
        var layer = doc.artLayers[ilayer];
        if (LAYER_IS_LINKED_SMART_OBJECT(layer))
        {
          var localFilePath = GET_SMART_OBJECT_REFERENCED_FILEPATH(layer);
        }
      }
    } 
  

  Here, I need implementations of two functions:

  1 LAYER_IS_LINKED_SMART_OBJECT()

  2 GET_SMART_OBJECT_REFERENCED_FILEPATH()

  Thank you in advance!

  Here is the final solution (with no error checking):

    if (app.documents.length)
    {
      var doc = app.activeDocument;
      for (var ilayer = 0; ilayer < doc.artLayers.length; ilayer++)
      {
        var layer = doc.artLayers[ilayer];
        if (layer.kind == LayerKind.SMARTOBJECT)
        {  
  
          var ref = new ActionReference();
          ref.putIdentifier(charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), layer.id );
  
          var desc = executeActionGet(ref);
          var smObj = desc.getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID('smartObject'));
          var localFilePath = smObj.getPath(stringIDToTypeID('link'));
        }
      }
    } 
  

• How is changing Smart Objects function?

  I resized one of my smart objects (which already isolated action at this particular file) but found that the same dynamic object in other files have also been affected. Change something? How all untie them? They are the same smart object that I placed in different files in different sizes.

  It sounds like you using a linked smart object, old version of Photoshop only had the embedded objects.  You menu file > Place new version of Photoshop's file menu > Place incorporated and file menu > related site

• How to edit a .ai (converted to a smart object) in photoshop.  I want to change the text and changed the text and graphics

  In photoshop, how to change a file .ai (converted to a smart object)?  I want to change the text and changed the text and graphics.

  Total beginner, so need help.

  Thank you very much.

  That must be edited in Illustrator.

• How to change a smart object

  I don't know how I go on this point, but I had the text in Word and pasted in a gray background in PS CC. Now, I have a smart object. Look great, but I forgot to add a period. I did some research on google, and he says to choose layer, change the dynamic object (or double-click on the thumb).

  But then, he brings the text in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (is part of the suite CC?), never seen before.

  I can select some text there, but the keyboard does not work to remove or add anything. I'm stuck. Thank you.

  It would be more simple paste the text again. You cannot change the text in Acrobat Reader

  Copy the text from the Word document. Create a new text layer in Photoshop by clicking anywhere on the document with the text tool.

  Then stick.

  The text should now be editable on a new layer. This layer is not a smart object, but you can make it if you want by layer > smart objects > convert to smart object.

• What happened to the automatic editing vector smart object function?

  Photoshop has been recently updated,

  in Photoshop previous app when the layer double click on a dynamic object that were made with copy/paste from illustrator, illustrator open editing automatically, now I get this message:

  

  Windows 7 operating system.

  How can someone drag a layer to illustrator?

  It does not work

  bring this function please... :-), this feature is necessary

  is it something to do with the preferences of the application?

  Thanks in advance

  :-)

  If you pasted as a smart object with the option 'Add to my current library' enabled, I think that Photoshop will use the version of the library.

  Uncheck the option 'Add to my current library' to get the old way back.

• How to duplicate a smart object and then modify it, without affecting the original?

  I have an element of vector illustrator that I am placed in a t-shirt mockup in photoshop. I have the provision essentially how I want, but I'm trying different color variations. I think that simply duplicate the initial placement and then change the color of the copy resulting, but this affects both the copy and the original. I looked into it a little further and found that I should try the option "replace contents" under smart objects, and that it would change the copy. Then I go back to illustrator, made a copy of the original vector and then the color change I had in mind and then saved as a separate document that I could use then by replacing the contents of the copy. However, still affects two smart objects!

  I tried this like linked smart objects and smart objects shipped without success.

  In the end, I just want to maintain the position of the original layer with the layer duplicated and edited. If you know a better way, please share!

  Layer > Smart Object > new Smart Object by copy. It forks a new, independent so (cut and paste or duplicate maintains the link between them).

  When you double-click the SO thumbnails in the layers panel, it opens the SO in the main application, in this case to have.

  Do Save your changes (not save money, unless you want to distribute the SO in a separate file, normal).

• PS smart object layer to HAVE. How to use?

  I have successfully work vector objects HAVE in the form of objects that are placed in the PS by copy paste or file/place in a layer to smart object in PS, I find value in modified my dimensions of vector object in artificial intelligence and to see updated in PS,.

  but I don't know how to do the opposite, which means a jpeg to PS on a layer to HAVE as smart object, I pick a picture on its own layer in PSCS4 and convert to smart object, I have (right click) export content under jpeg dynamic object and then back in I go file/location of the jpeg smartobject, when I make changes to the PSsmartobject in the PS as a change of SHIFT or dimensional color nothing don't is past in artificial intelligence,

  I wish I had a picture pasted to PS in there by which I can change colors and dimensions or add pixels like paint on this layer smartobject in PS and then got updated it in artificial intelligence...

  Just to clarify, when you edit an image in photoshop, you must save the file in order for Illustrator to know that it was published.

• How can I edit smart playlist in 12.4.0.119? This feature seems to have disappeared.

  How can I edit smart playlist in 12.4.0.119? This option seems to have disappeared.

  It seems to be the same.  When you say 'Edition', you mean change the rules and parameters of the intelligent, correct reading list?

  Make sure the sidebar is visible, so hidden (from the view menu).  Right-click the smart playlist and Edit the list of smart playlist.  Or, after selecting the smart playlist, use the Edit Playlist button near the top right.

• Photoshop: Edit a linked smart object in Illustrator

  I've created a few vector shapes and text in Illustrator and paste in Photoshop as a vector object smart. I re - uses these elements, so I the converted to a linked smart object. Awesome. But now, when I double-click items in Photoshop to edit in Illustrator, the linked file just opens preview (I use Mac OS). It is possible to manually edit the linked file by double-clicking it in the Finder and selecting open in Illustrator. It is possible but not very effective. Converted into a dynamic linked object removes the ability to quickly open/edit my Photoshop vectors?

  Yes, it removes only the ability. To be able to do what you want, you must integrate the smart AI object in your file. It is inefficient.

• How to add metadata to a linked smart object?

  Hello

  I would like to add metadata custom linked smart objects. This metadata should not be visible in the Photoshop application but should only be accessed from javascript in extensions CEP.

• Could not complete your request because the smart object is not directly editable

  Well, I'm trying to simply remove a background but photoshop won't let me do. It comes up with the error:

  Could not complete your request because the smart object is not directly editable

  I read on the internet, saying that I should "rastize" my diaper. I googled rastize, but I couldn't find a good answer is that rastize. Also, I tried to translate rastize into my mother tongue, but it also says rastize. However, my photoshop is in Dutch. I couldn't find the option 'rastize '. What should I do? Here is a screenshot:

  Rasterization is to flatten just this particular layer. Since you are using is a smart object, you can double click top in the layer panel and edited directly, or you can rasterize it. It is always better to do a non-destructive editing, so you really need to use a layer mask to remove the background rather than delete it. However, the position of pixelation here is a layer in the menu:

  

• Vector Illustrator to Photoshop Smart objects is more editable...?

  I've just updated my CC and experiencing some weird behaviors between Illustrator and Photoshop. I always start in Illustrator to make my designs (logos, etc. for the vector art) and then build in Photoshop for brochures and other media. I always copied and pasted as smart objects (from Illustrator into Photoshop) and production wise, this is a quick easy workflow - I can go back and change my smart objects by clicking twice if necessary changes.

  However, after update CC two days ago, I feel something I've never seen. When I paste the graphic Illustrator (such as a smart object) I can no longer double-click the layer to edit in Illustrator - I am panic and need help! What they have done or what has changed? It's ruining my workflow and I would really appreciate the help. The alert script error I get when I double click on the vector smart object is "this element is not directly editable in photoshop, but it can be placed in a document. To move the item, drag it into an open document. "Why I'm doing this and why they would change?

  Help, please

  The interest to place the vector in Photoshop is not hunting for the dynamic object - it is much too long and then go back to Illustrator. It is a step in the wrong direction, and I can't believe that others are not upset. I would not have updated if I had known this - now my production is at a standstill immensely. Is there a way to express my concerns?

  Your first message is at odds with your last. You said in your first post that you double-click to edit a vector pasted in Photoshop into Illustrator. Then you say you want to go back to Illustrator and "hunt for the object."

  As long as you have the option "add to my current library" unchecked when pasting, it should work as before. Is there something I'm missing here?
