Photoshop script that records with different active layers?
Greetings. Long time user of Photoshop... but looking for a way to streamline some workflows. I regularly jobs where I need to create variations of what I am working on. To do this, I have basic layers that are common to all the images of finals, can have a set of layers that have sections which vary on them. Now, I heard some Scripts that can be run in Photoshop, so I was wondering if there is a way to have such a script all variants, evolution which layers "variation" is visible, as it does. Thus, if the layers were piled up like:
Overlay shared
Variant 6
Variant 5
Variant 4
Option 3
Variant 2
Option 1
Shared content
Shared base
All shared layers would be visible, while the script would save the Variant 1 file with the Variant 1 layer visible also... Variant 2 with Variant 2 visible (and Variant 1 tilt turn back), etc. Such a thing is possible in Photoshop with the script? And if so... How capable is he? If the file format was more like:
Overlay shared
Level 2 option 3
Level 2 option 2
Level 2 option 1
Variation of 1 level 3
Level 1 Variant 2
Variation of 1 level 1
Shared content
Shared base
When I needed to save the files where the script activated level 1 Variant 1, then saved on each of the 3 files with the level 2 variants (file1 would have level 1 Variant 1 + level 2 option 1 active, then File2 should have level 1 Variant 1 + level 2 option 2 active... etc)... is it possible?
Not necessarily need someone to provide a script, I'm pretty happy to jump in and learn, if I get an indication that I wouldn't just spinning my wheels on something that is not possible. Thank you, in advance, for all the answers.
Yes, this would be possible. If the files have different numbers of layers, which would make it more difficult, because you'd have to this script so that the script know which layers to enable or disable. It would be just a matter of creating a 'loop' and going through the layers. It would be worth something even in the name of the layer that would leave the script to know which layer must stay all the time.

Licenses that merge with different activation time
Hello
I want to merge two different activation time license. I found that there is a solution for this http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2006973
But some question appears in this operation:
1 time activation may differ by more than 30 days (a license has been purchased and activated in September and the other was purchased and active in June) type of licenses will be the same example - VMware vSphere Standard for 1 CPU with 1 year of support in version 5.5, how support for this looks?
2. what type of license do need me for server with 2 processors with 8 cores and 192 GB of RAM, this license fits my needs? Is there a single license covering such a feature?
On the HP site, I found only licnses for 1 CPU http://h30094.www3.hp.com/searchresults.aspx?store_id=11 & search_id = 67 & dept_id = 1328
3. should I VMware vSphere Standard at least to connect to vCenter VMware?
THX in advance for any replay :-)
From vSphere 5.5 all basic and memory restrictions have been removed, and licenses are simply based on the number of processors physical Sockets (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2064117).
What you must ensure is that the license key you want to assign has at least the capacity of the CPU. You can merge the license keys for the same version/edition even with different dates of SnS. However, this will not change SnS and end dates will always be displayed ion the MyVMware portal.
vCenter Server is optional and licensed separately and is necessary if you want to manage a cluster host, or use additional features (for example, the cloning, live migration,...)

SDO_TOPO_MAP. Error CREATE_FEATURE - edge that ends with different faces
Hi people,
I encounter the following error when creating a topology on 10 g (10.2.0.4) and 11 g (11.1.0.7):
ORA-29532: Java completed by eception Java exception appeal:
oracle.spatial.topo.InvalidTopoOperationException: attempt to add an edge that ends with different faces
MetaLink bug 5087384 is the closest reference I can find and it applies only the 10.2.0.1 so maybe not relevant. Some tips for how to do to investigate this? I know that the function of the origin of the problem. Its a sdo_geometry valid, just a polygon with a single outer ring. I guess the data existing in the topology are not interact correctly with the new geometry, but I don't know how to test this.
Thank you!
PaulThe create_feature api is not very robust when input geometries do not well align the edges of the town.
So if there are small gaps are very low overlap which would result in shrapnel, the create_feature api has no notion of "tolerance" to deal with them.What we recommend in general is to make sure that the shared components of the alignment before the create_feature geometry is used.
For this, you can use the functions sdo_geom.union and the difference to ensure that entries are aligned.
For example, if you have a and B as two geometries of entry, then produce A 'and B '.
sdo_difference (sdo_union A, B, B) will produce A'. Similarly, you can generate B. Then the two A' and B' is aligned along the
shared edges and will work as expected with create_feature.Note that you must process all the data entry like this to ensure that they are aligned. Or you can do it only for these geometries
who fail with create_feature.Bottom line is with the current api create_feature, there are a lot of pre-processing required and we work to make this process simple for the end user.

Can I use the .jsx scripts that use with CS6 with Photoshop Elements?
I have a series of scripts I use at work and have access to Photoshop CS6. I have Photoshop elements 12 at home and I wonder if I can use the same scripts.
Thanks for any help!
You can run the same scripts in ESP 12, but they can not work if they use functions is not only pse 12.
You can test using file > Open in EPS 12 and then choose the script.
Since 12 PES doesn't have a file > Scripts menu, but uses the file > menu instead, automation tools then you might need to modify the script (javascriptresource) to only show the menu of automation tools.

Scripts that interact with other applications like Excel
Hi all
He is the Illustrator CS6 Scripting Guide.
"A script is a series of commands that tells Illustrator to perform one or more tasks. These tasks can be
simple, affecting a single object in the document active, or complex, touching objects in all your
Illustrator documents. Tasks may involve even other applications, such as word processors, spreadsheets,
'and the databases management programs'.
I tried to find a starting point to find a way to do it, but I found no examples online. Is their any resources out there that someone knows? One of the things I am doing, for example, is to copy a specific column of an excel document and paste it in illustrator. Thanks in advance!

run a window with different active tab

I want to run window region and language in the third tab to open the 'change keyboard' dialogue so that I can change the page layout. I use> %systemroot%\system32\control.exe/name Microsoft.regionandlanguage
to open through. I want to use auto-raccourcis keyboard to directly open the keyboard and language, better yet the button 'change keyboard' tab in this tab. Can someone guide me how I can give arguments to run the command to do this? Thank you!! :)
If you use Auto-touche to fast access, simply tell your script to send the letter that is underlined when you press Alt on this screen. For example, press the button "change settings system...» ", you'd send Alt + C.

face detection? Photoshop script
Hello
I explored the possibility of automatic detection of faces and selection using photoshop script. Anyone tried something similar? Please guide me in the right direction.
I need find and automatically select the face (with head) and move in different layers.

Thanks JJMack!
Let's say if we leave selection of face. But is there any command/method photoshop script that detects if the layer/image has sides on it or not?
Thanks again!
If you leave the detection of face, how do we know if there is a face or not in a layer. Same Adobe Face detection detects all the faces in the pictures. New face in CC 2015.5 detection liquefy had no problem finding all 8 faces in your example. Yet, I saw portrait images, in that it has failed to identify a face. CC 2015.5 has so many issues, I do not use it. Older versions of Photoshop CS6 starting have face detection in color range to help select the skin.

How can I run script jsx button with photoshop, I been tried more (HTML 5)
How can I run script jsx button with photoshop, I tried, but I get no results please someone help me in this issue that I can continue my extension and gives me the good code that I can use it.
Thank you very much
In the index.html file, you will need to create a button and call the function when button by clicking on:
"button" id ="button" onclick = "getDucumentFormatFun ()" > name of the Document:
In the js file you must set the getDucumentFormatFun() function:
function getDucumentFormatFun() {}
fileFormat var = "get_fileFormat()";
evalScript (fileFormat, fileFormatCallback);
}
define the callback function: fileFormatCallback
function fileFormatCallback (res) {}
Alert ("the name of the active document is:" + res);
}
In jsx file:
get_fileFormat = fileFormatFun;
function fileFormatFun()
{
Return app.activeDocument.name;

Need help to write a script that opens files, removes layers and sous-calques
Hey all,.
I'm a noob to the community of script, and what I try to do is file edit commands that share the same names of layers and sublayers. I have a few questions that would be incredibly useful if I could have answered.
I'm not sure how to define a script too call out of the layers that have been created without script. I need to create a variable for the existing layers and leave the script to know what their names are in the files?
For example, I have three files which have each layer named 'cutlayer', 'trimlayer', 'fold' and 'work '. I need to write a script that opens three files, deletes the layer 'fold' of each file, and then move the layer "trimlayer" in his own sublayer in 'work' (the base layer can be on the top so reorganization sublayers is not necessary to worry about something). I do not understand how to write the script because I couldn't find examples in the documentation for the script provided on the adobe website which has worked with existing files.
It's my shot at what I'm trying to do, with English fill in the blanks of what I do not know how to script. If anyone can help me understand this point, I would really appreciate it!
app.documents.openDlg (prompt, filter, MultiSelect); the user opens the associated files
If (documents.length > 0) //run the script through each document individually
{
sourceDoc = activeDocument;
delete the "fold" sourceDoc layer
move the "trimlayer" in the layer "work."
remove the underlayment 'path' of layer "work."
Run the script through each document
Save the new file name folder in the new parallel to the current folder on the hard disk
Go out and spend in each document until there is no more
}
create new document
Place documents published in different layers in the new document, with a distance between them, optimize the space on a 51 "x 51" work plan, using as little of the artboard as possible. "
All comments are things basically, I do not know how and am trying to figure out how to do, so if anyone has a second to explain some of these things, I would really appreciate it!
Thanks again!
I know it of very frustrating when his apprenticeship and things don't go as planned, but understand that it is quite confusing as it is and do not add more confusion to the mix by using other tools than those provided. I mean JSLint, it might be useful with GENERAL javascript syntax, but Adobe's Javascript implementation is another animal, or another language, always JavaScript, but intended to be run by its own engine. JSLint has no idea what "layers", or "pathItems" are, it will trigger errors when he sees the objects, it does not recognize.
