• Format of smart object layer

  Hello

  in the previous discussion you helped me open a dynamic object. It works, but I have another problem.

  Survey script 'error General photoshop", because the smart object layer format cannot be opened in photoshop.

  So I want to ask you how to get a smart object layer format?

  Thanks Domaneni

  Know not if that's all you need to fix the error, but the function below returns the content type of active dynamic object.

  //
  // returns either "vectorData" ( AI ) or "rasterizeContent" ( PS or ACR ) if smart cbject layer
  // or undefined if not smart object layer
  //
  function getSmartObjectType(){
      var ref = new ActionReference();
      ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), charIDToTypeID('Ordn'), charIDToTypeID('Trgt') );
      var desc = executeActionGet(ref);
      if(desc.hasKey(stringIDToTypeID('smartObject'))){// is smart object?
          var desc = executeActionGet(ref).getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID('smartObject')).getEnumerationValue(stringIDToTypeID('placed'));
          return typeIDToStringID(desc);
      }
  };

• To apply the edges of the poster to a smart object layer, but the filters Gallery is greyed out?

  Work a Photoshop tutorial on an image.  I want to apply the edges of the poster to a smart object layer, but the filters Gallery is greyed out.  Gallery of filters is also grayed out for all other layers in this project.  (PhotoShop CC)

  Hi filter Gallery,

  Please, click on the tab of the image above and choose 16-bit/channel to 8 bits/channel mode.

  Then check if the filters Gallery is always grayed out.

  Please post on the Adobe Forums.

• Bug or feature: opacity and blend-if values wiped out when convert to smart object layer

  I had unexpected results in an action that I put in place. As I was browsing through, I found that the conversion of a smart object layer reset the opacity to 100% and removed everything if mixture adjustments, if the blending mode has been retained. This is certainly an unexpected effect - is this a bug?

  Dynamic objects are always created at 100% and wipe any other mixture, mixture still exists within the object itself. It is the most logical way and reasonable so that it works - you will realize this if you think that it is through. Blend modes are however sometimes copied the layer source or group, it is possible and it is a kind of shortcut.

  To get the original mix in the smart object layer - open the smart object, do a right click on the layer with the bending choose 'copy layer style correct. " Now return to your master document, you can 'paste layer style' in the smart object layer.

• Photoshop smart object layer does not open in ACR when I double click

  I have a file open in photoshop raw, it reproduces, is smart, when objects I click on the smart object on the file icon, I get another copy of the file in photoshop, the file does not open up in acr, is there a setting I'm missing?

  Post edited by: Rodwf

  This is because the smart object is a raster layer image not a raw file.  If you want a smart object RAW you must do the ACR. Instead of clicking the image open in Photoshop button. Hold down the SHIFT key the key will change to open the object in Photoshop.

• Converted to the Smart Object layer

  When a text layer is a dynamic object, is there a way to remove the smart object so that the type becomes again a layer of regular type?

  Drag the PSO (the 'open' smart object) text layers in your original PSD doc. Don't know how to do it correctly.

• How do you add a 3D object in a dynamic 3D object layer?

  Sorry if this is a duplicate. I asked this before, but it seems to have disappeared into the ether...

  I created a layer to smart object 3D with a Cup, handle, coffee and steam, all in the same scene. Later, I created a saucer, but I did it on a normal 3D layer, and not on the smart object layer. I can't understand how to move the saucer in the dynamic 3D object layer, so I can add it to the stage. Copy / paste does nothing and I can't merge the layers.

  Thank you!

  I don't know if you can.  You can double-click on of course on the layer to smart object to reopen the 3d layers in Photoshop add the 3d saucer layer then merge the layers 3d, restore their coordinated 3d object then positioning and resizing the parent to another. When record you the dynamic object works the original smart object layer file will be updated by Photoshop and now contain the saucer.

• Smart objects mask layer

  I converted the background image to a smart object, the sharpness filter applied, and then clicked on the smart object layer mask.  It is supposed to be filled with black and painted white so the smart filtering turns.  However, the layer mask is white, not black!  How can I get the fill either black and non-white.  Thank you.

  When you add a layer mask by clicking on the layer mask icon at the bottom of the palette add layers, it will default to reveal all the active selection as a mask or a white layer mask. However it you hold down the ALT or Option Mac clicking on the layer mask icon add default is a layer mask to hide all black or the selection inverso active as a layer mask.

  When you add the first smart filter at one end of the dynamic object a mask with filter will add. The mask will be the additional smart fill effect also the is only a filter mask.  The default filter mask is a mask to reveal white or an actress as a mask selection.

  Once you have a mask, you can target and change it using the tools in Photoshop.  So if you have a reveal all mask and you want to be a skin all the mask mask targets and use Ctrl + I or CMD + I reverse.  So if you have a mask for dark tones, you can target contrast of the mask it and willingness to hide what's not shadows.

• How to edit smart objects?

  Hello:

  I searched on Youtube, etc. manual Adobe for tutorials, information and basically how to as Smart Objects.

  First of all, I would like to know how to change a smart object. I read that you can change them if so far I could not find anything that will teach me exactly how I go on a smart object editing and how and then reinsert it into the work.

  I made a calendar icon where a single layer is a dynamic object. Later, I wanted to change the color of the layer. Then, I clicked on the smart object layer and it opened in another window but when I chose a new color and tried to fill it out I was unabel to do.

  So, if you are already aware of a place where I can learn more I'd greatly appreciate links that you may have.

  I'm still not very good with key words to find what I need, but I'm learning.

  As always, thank you for your time

  In photoshop, double-click the thumbnail in the layers panel. It will open the smart object, so you can change it. Be sure to save to update. More info on photoshop, feel free to create a new post to the thread in the forum of photoshop, this c.pfaffenbichler kindly posted for you.

• How to make the placed images/vectors remain within the boundaries of a smart object?

  Hi all.

  I have a question which I think has a simple solution, but it is difficult to find.

  I have a photo from a greeting card with rounded corners. I made the greeting card in shape a dynamic object... I want to drop my vector art of cards in the smart object to create easy shots for a website (model model style).

  My problem is this: when I stick my chart in the psb to smart object document, it remains within the limits of the object dynamic when I save it and return to the document .psd. for example if I fit my larger vector art, there will be a great vector art saved in the original psd rather than inserting in this "round card window. What I am doing wrong, that my account will be not cropping correctly? Same thing with if I try to add textures, they do not stay within the smart object... I'd appreciate your help with a simple solution. Some pictures below.

  Thank you

  Grace

  Image 1. The shape of the dynamic object.

  

  2. the vector art. I paste in the dynamic object of psb document... Yet when I save the smart object and check related DSP, graphic design is great and not cropped within the smart object.

  I have resorted to copy my smart object layer, drag it to the top and deleting a selection reverse... but there must be a much easier way!

  

  3. what happens when I save the smart object...

  

  Well,'re missing you a layer mask or a clipping mask to crop the content of coverage.

  I would use a clipping mask, which makes life easier than a layer mask. As follows:

  

  To create a clipping maskor click on the border between the two layers.

• How can I change the speed of a video clip after which makes a smart object?

  In order to apply the same Camera Raw filter for each segment of a clip that I was going to split several times, I have converted the full clip to a smart object, applied my settings Camera Raw filter and then split the clip and remove parts.  Now, I want to do some parts of these clips slowed, but even if I right click on the right side of the layer and select 'Clear Smart Filters', all I see when I right click on the item in the Assembly are query options; I can change is no longer the speed or the audio.  Is it possible to do without having to make all cuts at first, change the speed and audio and then having to go back and convert each individual segment in a smart object and then apply the same filter of ACR for each of them?

  Once you have converted a video clip to a smart object, it is more technically a video clip. All dynamic objects are treated equally, regardless of their content. So, just as you cannot change the read speed of a smart object non-video, you can do it for a dynamic object that contains the video. But if you double-click the thumbnail to a smart object layer, you open the embedded file and you can apply settings to this file-centric video.

• How to open and copy the smart object

  Hello

  I read some topics on smart objects, but I have not found a solution to my problem.

  1. I need open the smart object layer

  2 copy all the layers of the smart object to another file

  Thank you

  Let's say you have two open documents. The first open doc is the one you want to fool the layer to the second doc is active and the layer you want to dupe is the activeLayer.

  app.activeDocument.activeLayer.duplicate(app.documents[0]);
  

  Of course, you can change the document references and layer as needed. However the layer not fool must be in the activeDocument.

• Camera Raw / smart object?

  Using CS3
  Scenario:
  I turned 500 marriage images, sorted and retouched in bridge. Now, I'll look at each one in camera raw (at bridge) and make the necessary adjustments. I use CR and adjust / synchronize files similar whenever possible; zipping through the 500 images quickly and save without opening, then use the image processor to process all 500 images while I'm SLEEPING.
  Question:
  Is there a way to Turkey / process 500 images and have saved later when I open them, they open as smart objects. Now if necessary I can take the dynamic object, go back in camera raw and make changes / improvements.
  In Czech Republic, I know, I can check the box "open as a smart object", but that only seems to apply if I immediately open the file (or files), and then save them. It is not practical or feasible for select 500 files, open and save at the same time. If I save the Raw files to open later, (as in my workflow above) then it will not open as a smart object.
  I checked on the Adobe Exchange website, but did not find any scripts or actions that would facilitate.
  Anyone know if what I'm trying to do is possible and how?
  Thank you
  JeffN

  A quick fix would be to change the Image Processor script. If you add the line

  desc.putBoolean (stringIDToTypeID ('smartObject'), true);

  just before the line on 1546

  var returnDesc = executeAction (charIDToTypeID ('Opn'), desc, inDialogMode);

  TIFF and PSD files will be saved with the raw as a smart object layer file. Of course JPEG files will be always saved as usual.

• Batch export smart object layers

  Hello.

  At work, I need to make a few models of covers of DVDs, magazines, books, etc.. Sometimes, I have several options to do both, as 20 magazine covers. Usually, I'm doing 30 layers within the smart object that I use in my comp and go by turning each on, update dynamic object and saving with a different file name.

  Is there a way to make an action that:

  1. Light (visible) has layers within a dynamic object.
  2. Save the smart object.
  3. Update in the main image.
  4. Save the image under a new name (if can be the name of the smart object layer, better).
  5. Turn on the next layer in the smart object and repeat.

  Does anyone have an idea?

  Thank you

  Luiz

  Why so many composite of layers files.  I think that everything you need is a PSD with layer comp that would save different versions of the DVD covers in the form of flat jpeg files.
