How to name a layer with the filename - script or action?

Hi all

Can someone tell me if it is possible to automatically name a photoshop layer as the name of the file itself?

I have 600 cases to do and need to automate the process.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Marvo.

Open ExtendScript Toolkit that can be found here: -.
PC: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe utility
MAC: /Applications/Utilities/Adobe utilities

Copy and paste the code into a new window, and then save the code: -.
PC: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS #\Presets\Scripts
Mac:-[hard disk] / Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS #/ Presets/Scripts /.

If photoshop is open, close and restart it so that Photoshop can pick up the new script.

Now you can create an action to run the script and your backup to make this action can be processed by batch.

To add the script to your action:
File - Scripts - select the script (this will add the new layer)

  • How to export a picture with the filename

    iPhotos used to export a photo in a chosen directory, and then type a file name then export it. Apparently the 'upgrade' to Photos (ver. 1.2) means that I can give is no longer the photo file name specific when I export.

    The closest I can get, it's choosing prefix sequential and then I am able to type a file name that will show in front of the sequential number.

    so the name of the file appears as: myphoto - 1.jpg

    which is a stupid file name and I'll end up editing in any case until I have download or attach to a message.

    No cases of type a file name as you used to be able to do with iPhoto

    Photoshop Elements allows a file name be entered when you save a file. How can he NOT be an option in Photos?

    Is there a 3rd party add ons or an update that will give me the capacity back to name the files when exporting?

    Thanks for any help.

    If you use the settings as you have:

    you will get this for the exported file:

    The resulting file name should not be stupid because that's what you entered.

    If it is for a single file and then change the title below the thumbnail

    and use the name of the file: title. You will get the same results without the sequence number.

    HI, I'm supposed to write the names of files for an agency and I noticed that all the photographers name the files of the same Gallery of the same name, I guess it's renaming the bridge batch? TXS

    Yes, use the bridge to rename lots. I would recommend using the text that you want (add a _ at the end) and then add a number to four digits of the sequence.

    If you want this color "background" to print or export, you need to draw the rectangle.

    If you don't want to print or export, you can use the option simulate a colored paper in the transparency in all documents options upward. Set just two boxes of opacity of the same color grid.

    How to remove a shortcut with the command line?

    How to make a backup of the local users and groups with command line?

    You delete a shortcut, just as you would remove any other file.  A shortcut will end with the extension ".lnk".  So assuming you are trying to remove the shortcut named "Shortcut.lnk" which appears to the user 'Bob's Office, you use the button Delete (del) or 'clear' command by specifying the full path to the file.  (Remember to put filename in quotes if there is a space anywhere in the path or name) as in:

    del "C:\documents and settings\Bob\Desktop\Shortcut.lnk".

    What kind of a backup 'users and groups' you want to do?  If there is a backup of the users and groups as written in the registry, a good registry as C:\WINDOWS\ERUNT backup program that will make the command line.  If you are trying to backup all users and their data as well, then you are better off with a backup program.

  • How to create a my Signature (signature with the tablet of manufacturing) Action?

    How to create a my Signature (signature with the tablet of manufacturing) Action?

    I use PSCS6?

    I have no problem making an action of signature if I pick a font and then type in my name,

    but to make a real action of my signature seems impossible.

    Hello

    There is a very cool technique to do by your signature in a Photoshop brush.  Once this is a brush, you can change the size and place the signature everywhere where you want.

    Google "Photoshop brush signature" or something similar and you will see a lot of tutorials.  Try this one:

    Photoshop reference guide | Creating a custom brush Signature | Peachpit

    Basically, you sign your signature on a blank piece of paper, then you scan in a JPG or TIFF file, then you open that file in PS to create a brush.

    I hope this helps.

    Or you can choose the pen tool (g), set the padding to zero and the race to what you want, then draw a path, then press U twice to reveal all of the properties that have been changed for the layer, and then click Add (top-right) and select Connect the tracks.

    To make the race work just animate the start or end point and sent to paint on original or reveal original or normal.

  • Merge a layer with the background

    Is it possible to merge a layer with the background? I mean, suppose that the background does not yet exist and I have a series of layers on top of this transparent background. How can I go on the fusion of one or more of these layers with the background without flatten the whole image?

    to convert a normal layer into a background layer, you will need to select and go to the layer-> New-> layer bottom. As far as I know, this is the only place where you can do. If you want to do a bottom layer of multiple layers, you must select the layer and go first to layer-> layer blending to merge the layers into a single layer

    How can I restart firefox with the same tabs and windows?

    It is not in the file menu or tools. I get nothing when searching for help. FF still knows how to do it, say to update extensions.

    I know that I can do by saving my session, coming out, reboot and restore the session but is there a single command to do this?

    Thank you. -David

    I have attached a screenshot showing how to select restore automatic session just above the setting of the Home Page where it says "When Firefox starts".

    With this set, you can restart Firefox manually out using the menu-

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    -and then restart Firefox.

    If you want a real reboot with a click of button, you can check something on the Add-ons site: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/

    How can I sync lightning with the iphone calendar? I saw online that I need to use a google calendar? I added google calendar as they described, but I have no idea where from here

    To synchronize with the iPhone (also known as iCalendar) schedule you must use a calendar based on a cloud. If you already have the lightning, install the addon Google provider and Setup Google Calendar. If you have already done so, go to settings on your iPhone. In the e-mail box, Contacts and calendars, add your Google account and turn on the calendar. This will synchronize your Google Calendar with the iPhone.
