How to import bulk layers in a psd?

I have a PSD with many layers/groups etc, and I need to bulk import a folder of jpeg images as a new group in the psd file. I would like a simple/fast way to do instead of placing the images one by one.

In Photoshop CS5 or later only, you can drag files from the Finder from Mac or Windows Explorer directly on your image open.

They will import one by one and you have to press enter or return to Photoshop to place the next photo.

But they will be separate layers. They will not be in a group and NOT, by dragging a folder will not work.

I just tried this by dragging10 jpg all at the same time and it works, hit just enter or return after each photo.

But this only works in Photoshop CS5 or later version.

On Mac, it works the same, but you need a computer to Intel chip (anything in the last 5 years) so no computer chip Power PC.

    I'm trying to import an image into a psd file as a new layer, but I can't find the photoshop object method in visual studio 2010 object browser. Is it possible to make this work with vb.net codes?

    Any suggestion will be graduate!

    You can, like me, simply leave the scriptlistener plugin installed all the time. Really there no performance impact unless the log file are very large. I just keep an eye on the log file, and then delete it when it starts to get too big. Also there that you don't want the two newspapers js and vbs output set just one you don't want to read-only. Photoshop will Ingore it and only writing to that desired.

    If you do not want to uninstall the plug-in a quick way to do this is to rename it by placing a ' ~' at the beginning of the name.

  • How to import PS layers along the busy

    Hi, I want to import layers PS on board, but I do not know how... I know that in Illustrator... but there is a subtlety that I don't know Photoshop... Can someone help me?

    You can use the script to save your layers except if your groups. In this case, I save my file as a second DSP and in that one flatten my groups before you export it to files.

  • How layer comps are linked to the layers in the PSD file?

    I am developing an application of external command line c ++ to analyze a PSD file (using the PSD specification - http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/photoshop/fileformatashtml/PhotoshopFileFormats.htm#50577 409_17115) in order to extract important information. One of the main things I need is information linking layers to the layers themselves. Digging through the section Image resource specifying "Layers - 1065" I'm only able to extract the name, comments, etc. on the comp. layer is the question I have: how the layers are referenced by the layers in the PSD file? I need to know what layers are applied to each layer comp. Looking through the scripts provided with the PS (for example layers in files), the composition of layers is always "applied" before watching to see what are the layers inside this model. It seems to be the creation of an Action and the implementation of this action with the class identifier of the layer comp before watching his diapers, so this method should know on which layers are referred to by this layer comp. Specifically, what do I need to be able to do and, so far, have failed.

    It is important that I stick with c ++ & that it be an external application, so the Plugin SDK is not much help here.

    I would really appreciate any ideas/suggestions on this subject.

    Thank you all.

    If someone falls on this issue once again, last night, I found the data using a control of the layer comp binary ID I have model layer section. The composition of layers--> data layer is inside a section of "undocumented"data under the tag Layer Records: shmd

    Hope this helps someone.

  • How to import image sequences which have been made in layers of Blender to the AE?

    Does anyone know how how to import image sequences which have been made in layers of Blender to the AE?

    I tried to make it to the first plan and background in separate layers in a blender & bring to AE as sequences of images separate but have so far failed.

    I used targa, .tiff, .png, and same openEXR multicoated, but none worked for me so far.

    I do it all the time. Make your sequence of images in a separate folder for each passage, use a number like bg_0001.tif format, go it to file > import and select any file in the folder and check the box image sequence, and then import.

  • Replacement of all PSD layers when a PSD file name has changed

    Does anyone know how to quickly add a link to all layers in a PSD file, if the name of the PSD file has been changed?  At present, it seems that I have to add a link to each individual one layer.

    For example, I have a PSD with 100 + layers imported in my project, but I would now like to rename the PSD file. Of course, when I do this, AE sees the PSD as 'missing' and there seems to be no way to add a link to all layers for new PSD file name?  I have to click on each individual layer and replace one by one.

    Any ideas?

    See you soon

    Nope. It's just how it works. AE has no way to know about this either on changes to your PSD files, since the structure of PSD files is not persistent - a simple reorganization of the layers can make a mess. Where EI is able to reference absolute paths with all the disadvantages.

  • How to import a menu of first elements 7 (menu Popcorn) in Encore CS4?

    How to import a menu of first elements 7 (menu Popcorn) in Encore CS4?

    If yes how to perform this Act?

    Their additional menus are available for Encore CS4?

    Pre Menus are in the games Menu. Each set is a main Menu and a Menu selection of scenes. As before the semi-automatic creation, there are many 'extras' in the Photoshop PSD, in button layer sets. All you have to do is to make a copy of your two Menus in a separate folder, so that you don't worry everything ruin your Menu sets in pre. I could do this in a new subfolder in the library folder hierarchy yet. Then, each of these two Menus open in PS. Go and clean up all the other languages for the text and the text of the button. Correspond to the names of Layer button Set/Layer Set such naming conventions in the library of the Menus again, because you won't get any semi automation. Where you do not, say a next button, just to eliminate layers of this button. Don't forget, before it will be semi-automatiquement, will give you the number of scene selection Menus, that your project includes - will not be still. You must count the scenes, divide by the number of buttons on this scene selection Menu and make copies of this Menu, to account for what you need.

    For what is still, it comes with a compliment full Menus, buttons and other assets, such as EM files (models), of movement and Audio assets. Everything can be completely customized in PS. Note: in PSElements, I don't believe you can create layer sets, so it will be a limitation. The full PS has no limitation, with the sole exception that to change colors button subpicture highlight, this must be done in the editor Menu in Encore, unless it has been added to the PS CS5.

    Good luck

    Hunt

    PS - don't forget, work on Copies of the two Menus in the set Menu forwards and NOT on the originals, or you do a repair installation to get back them.

  • Photoshop script to copy all the layers of close PSD to open the current document

    Hi, I have very limited capacity script so this task is above my pay grade

    I'm looking for a script to read and copy all the layers in a PSD saved file and copy them into the current active document. The two documents have the same size and I need to be able to change text layers after copying. Anyone has any advice or examples of how I might be able to do this?

    Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

    Kind regards

    Try the script in entry below. You must open the destination file, and you must put in the path and name where your source file. It will not choose a layer from background from the source file.

    #target photoshop
    var sFile = new File('~/desktop/template.psd');//change path to template file
    var doc = activeDocument;
    var sDoc = open(sFile);
    
    var idselectAllLayers = stringIDToTypeID( "selectAllLayers" );
        var desc2 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
            var ref1 = new ActionReference();
            var idLyr = charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " );
            var idOrdn = charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" );
            var idTrgt = charIDToTypeID( "Trgt" );
            ref1.putEnumerated( idLyr, idOrdn, idTrgt );
        desc2.putReference( idnull, ref1 );
    executeAction( idselectAllLayers, desc2, DialogModes.NO );

  • Some import photoshop layers are empty squares [LOCKED - in double thread]

    Hey guys! I'm new to After Effects and I have a big problem.

    I created an image in photoshop, consisting of several layers of each with a little white line 1 layer with text and 4. The image is set to RGB. So I save it to my computer and go to the AE. Once I import the psd as composition I see is called 'Logo' (which I saved as psd).  You will find below is a drop-down list display of each layer. I would like to animate the layers individually, so I select all and drag them down in the timeline panel, but in the preview, it shows all my layers of line as just white squares containing the entire layer. The only layer that works as expected is the text layer, which shows the text, then the white background. I my AE background for black if this matter the value. Oh, and the composition of the Logo, which has imported looks as it should in the preview.

    You guys could help me understand what goes wrong?

    I think that this question has been answered here: on the imported photoshop layers white.

  • Composition of import retain layers problems. Help, please!

    Hello

    I have Adobe After Effects CS5 10.0.0.458.

    When I try to import a layered Illustrator file in AE as a "composition - keep the size of the layer" in this case: -.

    Screen Shot 2015-08-12 at 23.06.42.png

    My layout of the Illustrator is all bundled together when it really should look as below (which works if I just import in the form of "composition", but obviously the centres all anchor points which is what I don't want)

    Screen Shot 2015-08-12 at 23.08.11.png

    Can someone explain why this could happen? If yes how can I fix it?

    I would really appreciate the help.

    Thank you

    Alex

    In order to maintain the position, you must open the comp that is created when you import the file HAVE as a model by keeping the size of the layer. You cannot drag all the layers in a new comp and the end of the layers to the top of any where, but in the center of the model because the anchors are all in the center of their respective layers.

  • Numbers - how to import external data to a cell in a single file into a new cell in another file?

    Numbers - how to import external data to a cell in a single file into a new cell in another file?

    I want to do the same thing in numbers (3.6.2 (2577) I used to do in Excel (any version):)

    to import a calculation of a cell in a file in a new cell in another file.

    Example: I want to import the result of a sum in a specific cell of my accountant in August to a cell in comparison in my accounting of September.

    It was so easy in Excel. Until the reference computer broke down.

    By the numbers, I tried to copy - paste the contents of the cell formulated, but not good.

    No help manual online or anywhere. I think that maybe the function is absent in number.

    Then I return to MicroSoft Excel, that I have used for many years and I am sorry to say feel much more wysiwyg.

    Formulas in a numbers document cannot reference cells in other documents of numbers.

    "Much more wysiwyg" is another way to express what many of those who "used (MS Excel) for many years" expressed as "more intuitive. These two descriptions usually boil up to ' what I'm used to, ", which is also true in the other sense.

    Whatever the real explanation, the standard advice is "the tool that will do the job." If "the job" requires referencing values in a separate document, the numbers (alone and without the help of AppleScript) are not the best tool for this job.
