Photoshop actions: mask color claw Cup + 99 :/

I have a black image with a layer of just clipping mask above.  I created a sample with a set of 99 colors that I use over and over again.  I created an action that will be the color mask, prompt me to name them and save again the image layer mask active & ready for me to pick the next color in the swatch Panel.

Two questions:

(1) is it possible to automate this action to plow right through all the colors of 99 on my sample (the names of: Swatch1-99) without being invited by me?

(2) is it possible for the action name in order the image before the record within the action?  I know I can do this in batch mode, but it is possible in the action itself?

Basically, I want the action to run 99 times on an image without interaction from me.  Is this possible? Or I have to build 99 series of my action?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Ok.. I slept on it and sometimes during the night, I woke up and found the solution.

CREATING THE ACTION

I had to create the action of the hard...

(1) open PSD with layer mask

(2) create a duplicate file and remove all the layers and add a blank layer 1

(3) set the focus to the original image.

(4), select the layer MASK

(5) SELECT ALL to select the entire image

(6) open the Actions tab, named my new action & hit record

(7) set to color chart color

(8) color the layer mask

(9) copy merged

(10) select double image

(11) block of

(12) set the focus to the original image

(13) repeat steps 7-12, 98 times (get cramp in the hand about half way, get coffee, answering the phone, lose my place 17 times, but keep plowing on...)

(14) to save the image with 99 layers PSD file

(15) to stop recording

(16) under action 99 COLORS

WITH THE HELP OF THE ACTION

(1) make sure you have correctly loaded custom color chart.

(2) open PSD with layer mask

(3) create a duplicate file and remove all the layers and add a blank layer 1

(4) set the focus to the original image.

(5), select the layer MASK

(6) SELECT ALL to select the entire image

(7) open the Actions tab, choose 99 COLORS & press PLAY

EXTRACTION OF 99 LAYERS INDIVIDUAL PNG FILES

I have an old version of Photoshop, CS3, so the ability to save PNG using a built-in script was not an option.  I looked around the interwebs a bit and found a script to save each layer as a PNG.  I'm new here and don't know the rules for the display of external links, so if someone wants information on the use of this script, send me a message.

(1) open the PSD file with 99 layers.

(2) choose FILE > SCRIPTS > BROWSE and load the SaveLayers.jsx script

(3) you are prompted with a message that makes me think to have a back-up, things can go wrong, the destruction of the Earth is possible but if you are connected to the Earth in your own folly, click OK.

(4) 60 seconds later, I have 99 different PNG files in my folder color.

(5) LIKE the world. Fill the coffee.

BY THE WAY

So after I found this clever script, I tested it on 6 different files with mask layers.  Some were just 2 images of layer (layer image & original mask) and 2 images with 3 layers (image layer, layer, layer mask).  The top layer is a layer of black of the entire image.  This script worked on one of the 3 layers images but not the other.  I kept getting an error during creation of layer 45 that there was nothing in the area of selection on the POPULATION of the original process.  I do not know what has increased with this particular image, but he has worked a lot on the other image of the 3 layer and all the images of two layers with no problems.

  • Script in Photoshop Actions for the canvas size?

    I have a variety of sizes of illustrations I want to post on my site;  that would take much less time if I could add a white border in Photoshop Actions by increasing the size of the canvas by 1/4 inch.  Thanks for your suggestions, BAB.

    Save a step size of canvas.  Leave the anchor point at the Center. Check relative and the value of 1/2 inch in width and height.  Photoshop will calculate the number of pixels needs to add to increase the width and height 1/2 "and add 1/4-inch canvas on all sides.  If there is a background layer in Photoshop the extra pixels will be 100% opaque and the color can be set in the canvas size dialog box. Can be set to the color of the background sample.  If there is no background layer, the added canvas will be empty.

  • Run the Photoshop Action of the bridge on the raw files without creating a folder JPG

    I created a Photoshop Action that resizes and compresses an image (at 800 pixels at 24% quality). I want to run that Action of bridge on a selection of raw files. I have to do this, the bridge, select the images and select "tools-Photoshop-Image Processor". "In the window options 'Processor of Image', I put the folder to save the images processed, check the ' Action run" check box and select the Action but I have to check one of the 'file Type' (I check '"Save as JPG' with ' quality: 1" ") (it will run only if a"file Type"is selected), then click on 'run '. It then performs the Action on each image and I get the desired resolution file reduced and reduced the size of the file. The problem is that there also creates a JPG subfolder and creates another set of files also to the reduced resolution but the file sizes are larger than the game created by the Action.

    How can I run the Action without creating the subfolder containing the extra set of files whose size size JPG?

    I use v4.0.5.11 Bridge CS5, Photoshop CS5 v12.0.4x32 and Windows XP Pro SP3.

    Thanks to anyone who can help me.

  • beyond the image mask color

    I often have people mask images to put them in an architectural setting. I so everything first open the image with a person, to convert the bottom of layer 0, add a layer mask and paint around the person with the black.

    When I drag this layer to another then (enlargement), the mask around the person is black only as much as the original image size image of this person. around him he is white. When the scaling this image + mask, a thin frame appears sometimes, while the outer edge of pixel is interpolated and not completely black more. This must be retouched every time.

    now, by chance, I did it 'right', in the sense that when you drag the image of the little person, the mask was completely black around the person. so there must be a way to make things right from the beginning. I tried to find what I have done in history, but the last 20 acts were brushing.

    Anyone know how I can put the entire area of a layer beyond the borders of the image mask to black? I tried, but did not work:

    activate the layer mask, select all, reverse, fill it with black (cmd + backspace when bg color is black).

    I found a solution that works, but it's more complicated than the contours of the new layout of the image-editing.

    Thank you.

    I know exactly what you talk about and very glad you posted this.

    What works is if you start with a new layer with no mask. Then draw a rough selection lasso around your object, then click adding a layer mask icon.

    What also works is hold the option key before clicking on the Add layer mask button. Your mask is filled with black, then paint to keep the areas with a white brush.

    What causes the problem is if you click on add a layer mask button and then start to use the brush to paint the areas.

    It has to do with, if you helped photoshop know what color the mask is filled beyond your exisitng Web.

  • Photoshop actions + Relinking image

    Hi all!

    I'm trying to optimize the way in which my colleagues and I add labels of our bottles. I have created a 3D tag and wrapped around our bottles. My next step in the process was to create actions that once played, all that was left for us to do was select the files that we want to apply our texture and save the files. The only problem I have encountered is that when the script gets to point d - link the smart object, it calls a dialog open as smart object, where we then have the opportunity to harvest to: Crop Bounding Box, media box, etc.

    What I would like is for this step to be fully automated, where once we choose the image we want to replace this dialog automatically chooses Crop to: Media Box, close and then fills the rest of the procedure of the action. I currently have this step by using the "Insert Menu Item' > 'Layer' > 'Intelligent objects' >"Recreate a link to the file"I tried setting up using"Action Record"but then he would always choose the same image to replace, I obviously don't want.

    That's what my script looks like if it helps someone.

    Thanks in advance!

    What you show, it is an action, but you are referring to it as a script.  Photoshop scripts are different Photoshop actions. Scripts are programs. They are programmed in a scripting language, and unlike actions can use logic.  However, I don't know if what you want to do can be programmed in a Photoshop script.  I have not programmed in this area in lieu of a linked smart object.  Watching your action, it seems that you have inserted the element menu to create a link to the file.  This will be an interactive action step as you wrote.  I'm not familiar with this menu item.   Saving item menu differently when used in an action, then when it is inserted as a menu item.  When used they are not interactive step. Step can be hard coded to a particular file, however.   A script may be able to put in a file selection dialog to allow you to select the file you want to link. Once you select the script file may be able to recreate it a link to the file in a non-interactive manner.    If you change your action and uncheck the menu item from insert reissue so it does not get played and record a step when you using the menu item Insert the item.  When you have completed step if name path file etc settings get saved in step. Probably you can code a Photoshop script that will work the way you want the process works.

  • How to change a photoshop action so I can manually enter data in?

    I'm currently editing the Image Processor.jsx and their xml files respective for best results. I would do the same for photoshop actions. Is there a program that would allow to open this type of file so that I can manual type and edit data inside. Hope someone can answer to this...

    You can do a few interactive steps by turning on step dialog boxes. You can therefore use your judgment to adjust the steps as levels, sharpening, curves, transform, change the text etc.  You can improve to buy stocks using some scripts in them.

  • PhotoShop 'Actions' and single name PDF

    Batch conversion of resizing and cropping of files PDF, Photoshop fails to appoint uniquely results with the name of the original file of documents. It replaces the output several times with the same file name. I can avoid this problem by having numbered file adobe instead. but I always lose the name of the original file. It looks like a bug.

    Even 'action' will correctly properly called JPEG & TIFF files (but not PDFs.)

    The work to seem to not use photoshop 'Actions' to PDF batch convert. use Actions that once the files have been converted to TIFF or any other format.

    You do a Save As in yourself, Action and replace this step and add something in the batch dialog box to create the name of the output file that is different from the name of document? You need to do if the file input and output files are one and same.

  • Photoshop cs5 - the color is different.

    Photoshop cs5

    qna.jpg

    When you work with the original picture in Photoshop,

    The color is different.

    The color of the image of working paper is not accurate.

    What is the problem?

    Photoshop cs5

    I suspect it is a problem of the monitor profile.

    If you have a stallion, use sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1 if not re - calibrate.

    Since I'm not fluent in one of the variants of Chinese, I can't tell what settings to save to the Web are here. But to match the SFW to main display of Photoshop, you must ensure that all color management is enabled.

    SFW, color management is disabled by default. To activate it, set Preview "use profile embedded. Check "convert to sRGB" and also check "embed color profile".

    Now both correspond, but notes that if the monitor profile is broken, it also means that they all have both wrong. Check if the monitor profile is always the first step.

  • Why is it when I save as jpeg photoshop changes the color.

    When saving an image in jpeg photoshop changes the color. also if I save the same image in the same folder a quality jpeg and the other in tiff format, when I discover the jpeg first, then scroll to the other image, that both of them have the same green change desaturated color but if I find the first tiff, then highlight the JPEG then two of them are very good. I can't find out what is the problem and why whoever I find first would make a difference. When you view the tiff, first of all, images are displayed on a white background and if the JPEG is opened first, they appear on a black background. I can't get my head around this help would be appreciated. Congratulations in advance.

    The jpeg format has integrated Adobe RGB.

    The PNG is untagged (has no color profile embedded).

    Convert to sRGBand make sure that the sRGB profile is embedded in the file.

  • Photos that have used Photoshop actions cannot be downloaded or shared.

    I recently bought a few Photoshop actions online and use it to change my photos. The work of fine measures so that the edition and I am able to view the finished product once I've finished recording my image.  (I save in jpeg format).

    But now I am unable to download the photos who have used one of these actions (Facebook, Dropbox, email, etc.).  I'm not sure what to do. I'm saving it bad?  Does anyone know why something like this would happen?

    Maybe it's because the extension is ".2jpg"? Try to stick something in there (as ". 2.jpg") and see if it works.

    Hi Donnas,.

    Content-aware fill is your best friend in this case.

    Just make a selection around the word and go to edit-> Fill-> Content-Aware.

    This usually done a very good job.

    Then you can either return to it several times (maybe in smaller sections) with Content-Aware fill to clean it, or you can play with the Spot Healing Brush tool (J) or the tool clone stamp (s).

  • Photoshop action on DNG files

    I made a simple Photoshop Action that

    1 open a DNG file

    2 apply some settings to a 3rd party plugin (nothing to do with the problem I describe)

    3 save the file as a PSD

    When I run this action on a batch file DNG, Photoshop applies the SAME settings on each DNG file before steps 2 and 3 - these settings since the DNG file that was used to record the action are used.

    I wanted that each file in order to have its own individual settings preserved but is not the case.

    Is it always going to be the case during the recording of actions on DNG files or is there a way to prevent this?

    All advice appreciated.
