Photoshop CC 14.2 leaves empty text layer

Hey,.

with the new update of the CC 14.2, whenever you click anywhere with the text tool and that you change your mind (like hitting ESC because you missed an existing text) an empty text layer is left out. He didn't use to be like this, empty text layers are everywhere in my paper now.

In any case, you can avoid this?

(I'm on a Mac using the x 64 version of Photoshop CC 14.2)

Yes, it's a boring change in photoshop cc 14.2

http://feedback.Photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/photoshop_cc_14_2_pressing_esc_in_te xt_layer_editing_mode_doesnt_cancel_but_applies_changes

you could press the button cancel the options toolbar or press on Ctrl + > (windows) or cmd + > (mac)

Does anyone know if that change is actually documented anywhere?

    I have got so accustomed to the use of the ESC key to go back to the pointer tool once I've finished writing a text layer, I can't not do that without losing the text I've written since the update to Photoshop CC 2015.

  • I use an iMac with El Capitan and Photoshop CS6. I'm trying to add a shadow to a text on a picture. I followed the instructions to double the text layer but not dropshadow dialog box appears and I can't. Where would it be?

    Double click on the text on the right side of the display panel does not cause a dialog box open. I just need to know where the dialog box is so I can add the drop shadow

    Please make sure that you double-click on the text layer in the layer panel not the name of the layer. With the text, it can be difficult if the name is too long. You can also right-click on the text layer in the Panel and bring up the contextual menu and select 'blending Options '.

  • Layer styles Photoshop 2015 not appearing is not in CS6 on a pixelated text layer

    It made by a mistake of text at the beginning when I open it. But if the layer is rasterized should elsewhere?

    Thanks in advance

    If it's a layer style and your text has a fill (all-solid), you can put the text layer in a group. Add your new layer for the group style. Add the desired above the Group fill color and hang it on the group.

    If the text has been rasterized, you can just lock the transparency of the layer and then fill the entire layer with any color you want also, then add a new layer style.

    These two things will work with CS6.

    Hello

    Default Outter Glow has the screen as it has blend mode. on a white background, you need to change to a different mix (normal color, more dark, multiply, or whatever you prefer, experience with some doubt)

    I suggest leaving the white background on all tweaking and if you need output, turn off the white layer before saving transparent

    and I want to import them into Photoshop so that each name is placed in a specific text layer. Is there a simple way to do it?

    Here's a quick script that can do. It assumes that there is a text file on your desktop named "name list.txt" it also assumes that the text using a return between names file, this can be changed to commas or anything else you want to use. You must also have an open file to make it work. It does not define the font or the font size, but you can put in the script or select all layers later and change it at once.

    #target photoshop
    var doc = activeDocument
    var textFile = new File(Folder.desktop+ '/name list.txt');

  • Why the edges of the layer of a text layer bizarre behavior?

    I'm stuck on this. When I create a text layer in Photoshop CS5 and then finds the edges of the layer, and I can't understand why the edges of the layer are actually in the text itself. It is not extending the edges of the layer out to the real edges. This caused enormous problems in trying to align text layers before the rasterize the layer.

    Can someone explain to me why Photoshop behaves in this way? And there at - it a way to make it stop? For reasons too go in, I can not rasterize the layer at this point. I need to be able to snap everything first.

    I was able to force a similar look by choosing bizarre settings in my character Panel.

    You have the type of Point or area?

    If you can't find the correct settings, either reset the text tool or reset all tools. Go to your control panel (top panel). Right click on the text tool. Select the reset tool and all the weird stuff will disappear for the tool. Reset all the tools to put them all back to their default values.

  • Basic conditional script based on the number of lines in a text layer?

    Just received help here to write a conditional script by using the font size of a text layer. Thank you all for this.

    The next hurdle is a conditional script using the number of lines in a text layer in the differential. Far as I can tell it not the layer details which specify the number of lines. Just '\r' for a return in the idTxt descriptor. Nothing seems to stand for a soft return as far as I can tell. I'll probably have to be able to count the lines with soft and hard returns.

    Any thoughts?

    I was playing around with this a bit and here is a small script to determine the number of rows. This is based on the self in the head, that I calculated to environ.108 times the size of the font.

    #target photoshop
    app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.POINTS;
    var doc = activeDocument
    var tL = doc.activeLayer
    var h = tL.bounds[3]-tL.bounds[1]
    var per = ((h/5)-(tL.textItem.size))/tL.textItem.size
    var num = h/(tL.textItem.size *1.108)
    
    alert(Math.round( num))
    
  • PS CS5: Raise errors when I try to change the font of a text layer

  • AppleScript cannot change the font of the text layer

    I used Applescript to create a text layer and specify its properties, but when I specify the font I get a compilation error:

    Impossible to define 'class NTR' to 'TradeGothic-Bold ". Unauthorized access.

    That sounds like a kind of permission error.

    Here is a little simplified script:

    Tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS4"

    say current document

    do new layer of art Properties {name: "File name", type:text layer}

    say the text object layer of art 1

    the value {content, size, stroke color, position, type} {"thefilename", 12, {class:RGB hexadecimal color, hexadecimal value: 'CC0000'}, {2, 12}, text of paragraph}

    set the font to "TradeGothic-"BOLD""

    tell the end

    tell the end

    tell the end

    If I put the police manually and use 'get properties of the text object in layer art 1', the Script Editor returns (with a long list of other properties):

    "" police: 'TradeGothic-"BOLD".

    so I think that I've specified the name of the font correctly at least. In the list of properties returned by the Script Editor, the font is blue like above, but all other property names are purple. It's I have to say something.

    Well, after some trial and error, I answered my own question. Here's what worked:

    Tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS4"

    tell the active document

    new layer art with properties {name: "File Name", layer type: text}

    the text of the layer 1 of the art of storytelling

    the value {content, size, stroke color, position, type} {"thefilename", 12, {class hex color: RGB, hex value: 'CC0000'}, {2, 12}, paragraph text}

    tell the end

    set the font for the text of art layer 1 to "TradeGothic-"Bold"object

    tell the end

    tell the end

    Maybe someone who understands OOP and/or better than I do, may explain why it worked and my first try didn't.

  • worksheet for text layer script?

    Does anyone know of a script that will create a new photoshop file, copy a line of text, spreadsheet, csv or text delimited an another doc, paste in a text layer, save and close, going on to the next line of text and repeat until the end?

    Excuse my bad English. You create in the folder where your script is a text file in which there are 4 lines. For example:

    Line 1

    Line 2

    Line 3

    Line 4

    The following script reads each line, creates a new doc, add a text layer above the background, written inside the content of the line and saves the document (psd format) in the folder where the script.

  • In trying to edit my text layer, it creates a new layer. Help please: >

    Yes, as the subject of bed. I can't change my text layer. If I try to use the tool t it doesn't create a new layer. IM displaying a screen so that you can see that I don't have a T-layer.

    These are the characters. IM pretty noob on photoshop. So, you might go through the base of guidance on how to do it.

    However, I tried the t layer doubleclicking. There is no highlight on the text, nothing happens.

    Screen shot 2013-07-19 at 14.27.53.png

    All you can do is remove this layer and re-do with the text tool. There is no way to reverse this trend.

    Always keep a copy of your psd file unrasterized before you rasterize the text.

  • Unprintable Advisory / text layer for models

    I'm trying to set up a template in illustrator that can be used by co-workers. Rather than having a separate document containing advice on how best to use the template (which of course, no one will read), I thought that it might be preferable to include information in the model itself. This advisory information had to be removed every time however, it would be a chore. Does anyone know of a good method to be able to leave the text or the layers that I can be able to lock and therefore could not be ignored by people using the doc, but what is important, would not be shown in the final result when placed in InDesign? The ideal outcome would not include having to specify many import options in InDesign for each file it could be hundreds of these things in place!

    I can't imagine that I have a unique situation here to want to do something like that.

    I'm using CS5.

    I thought you had the answer in your title for a minute there. But yes, do a layer of template with this info on it. Double click on the layer and select "template".

  • How to generate the barcode (barcode 3sur9 or one of its variations) in a single text layer?

    Is there a way to get the name of the fonts used in a computer (C:\windows\fonts), which can be used online from Javascript? I have the barcode fonts, but I don't know his name for Javascript to recognize.

    See the line on the myTextRef.font below:

    create a variable to the active document

    var docRef = activeDocument;

    Create a layer of text on the front

    var myLayerRef = docRef.artLayers.add ();

    myLayerRef.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;

    myLayerRef.name = "Filename";

    It is a layer of real text describing it as a text element

    var myTextRef = myLayerRef.textItem;

    Size of the font set to Points

    myTextRef.size = 24;

    A text or numbers to convert a code bar?

    myTextRef.font = "Arial";

    Text color to RGB values

    newColor var = new SolidColor();

    newColor.rgb.red = 255;

    newColor.rgb.green = 255;

    newColor.rgb.blue = 0;

    myTextRef.color = newColor;

    Adjust the position of the text - percentages of left first, then the top.

    myTextRef.position = new Array (50, 50);

    myTextRef.justification = Justification.CENTER

    So "BOLD" fonts

    myTextRef.style = "BOLD";

    Set the blending Mode of the text layer. The name must be in UPPERCASE - IE NORMAL change to the DIFFERENCE.

    myLayerRef.blendMode = BlendMode.NORMAL;

    Select opacity in percent

    myLayerRef.opacity = 100;

    The use of javascript, app.fonts you will get an array of objects textFont. There will be an object textFont for each font that Photoshop can use. Each object has several properties. To use with a text layer, as the postScriptName property.

    var fontList = [];

    var font = app.fonts;

    for (var i = 0; i)< fonts.length;="" i++)="">

    fontList.push (fonts, [i], .postScriptName);

    }
