Question of creating Photoshop JavaScript fill layer

You can probably guess what I'm trying to make this excerpt:

var docRef = app.activeDocument;  var layerRef = app.activeDocument.artLayers.add(); layerRef.kind = LayerKind.SOLIDFILL;

I would like to create a fill layer script (and then later refer to color, remove the mask, etc.). I get this response from the ExtendScript Toolkit: ' you can change only the text layer or the normal ".

I would have thought that it would be a way to pass arguments to somehow to the add() method of artLayers ? Am I missing something really simple? Thank you.

I know it can be done with actions, but I would like to know how to perform this task (apparently) very simple and develop to create more complex and useful scripts.

In addition, I don't know if it's important, but I'm under Ps CC15, toolkit 4 and using script CC14 reference

I totally understand! I'm the same way. I want to know how things work, so I can better use them. Find documentation for such things is difficult at best. The information in DOM has a little more documentation than the AOS code. Some time ago I tried to figure out how to change the AM code. I asked Jeff Tranberry on this subject, and he replied: "It is a dark art."

Unfortunately, I think AM code is the only way to create a fill United layer, and it is the only way to make a lot of PS operations:

  • I have someone using PSCS4, and when she creates a pattern fill layer, it does not get a mask.

    I have someone using PSCS4, and when she creates a pattern fill layer, it does not get a mask.

    Any ideas on how it could have turned off and how we can re-enable default?

    I check its settings panel menu and "Add default mask" is checked.

    Thank you!

    She changed the Layer palette settings to not automatically create a mask with layers of filling.

    Is not an adjustment layer, so the adjustment layer setting does not apply (and two parameters should really be in the layers palette in order to reduce the confusion).

  • Remove the vector mask in Photoshop CC fill layer

    I use Photoshop CC and I can not remove, disable or rasterize a vector mask that is applied to a layer of fill or gradient.

    Am I missing something?

    Delete the vector mask is to press the keys Alt + Ctrl (Option + Cmd) and

    slide the bottom of the icon/pattern/gradient fill layer in the layers panel to the trash can at the bottom of the layers panel.

    You can disable the "vector mask" Shift clicking the path icon in the properties panel.

    A way to replicate the pixelation is a vector mask Ctrl (Cmd) click on the shape layer icon in the Panel layers, add a

    layer mask and then delete the vector mask as described above.

    Hi elizabethu,

    Greetings!

    Make sure that the image is not in gray mode.

    If it is to change it to RGB mode.

    Image-> Mode-> RGB

    And try again.

  • CC of Photoshop does not paint on the fill layer

    I just installed photoshop CC and wanted to continue working on my old photoshop files (which I have previously edited with photoshop CS3 and photoshop 7). I use many layers of filling for my drawings in color because they are easier to change later. Things is, in photoshop CC all my layers of filling, those new and 'old', are locked. I can't paint over it when I could previously.

    There will be an error message asking me to rasterize it (which I don't want, because it would be difficult to change the next time) and also a second message of 'content on the layer is not directly editable.

    Is there an option that I can choose to allow the paint on the fill layer and again adjustment layers?

    EDIT: I think I just found the solution to my problem. Thought I would keep the post here, just in case anyone else has problems. In phtoshop CC when you select the fill layer, an outline of the default selection appears on the color or change. I had to select the mask (the BnW thumbnail) instead. Photoshop'd and then paint on the layer of fill/adjustment.

    If anyone knows anyway to let me decide the BnW default mask do not hesitate to answer

  • I don't see "Photo frame" as a fill layer. Help!

    Well, I'm doing a box around one of my photos in Photoshop CC, and everything I've read shows that I should be able to make a new layer, then SHIFT + F5 to bring up the fill layer, click pattern, click the Script box, and the dialog box should have an option for photo frame. This isn't. This option disappeared? Move to another area of Photoshop?

  • You will need to create a question to create a connection.

    Just need to create a question to create a connection. Mozilla may want to think about giving users the ability to create a connection without having to ask a question. Many of us are probably just a newspaper to answer to an existing message, as is my case today.

    Problem is that this forum is getting spammed the latter time (especially with streams tv shows) if it was easier to get an account and post without making a question first then this forum may end eventually and see even more spam.

    Cannot use either addWatermarkFromFile or addWatermarkFromText methods of document with player as shown in the documentation. You can hide/display the form fields and the existing layers, so consider this approach.

  • Question about license Photoshop Lightroom 6

    Hello

    I want to buy Photoshop Lightroom 6 (not subscribing to CC) and I have two questions:

    1. Can I install this program (not seen that a single permit for me as user) on my main computer and my wife's cell phone (even if it's his computer, only I'll be the user of the software)? I found somewhere in the questions that yes I install Lightroom on both computers unless I am the only user of the program, but then I found that in the EULA and he kept of wondering if I understand though.
    2. If I buy the "Lightroom 6", do all the updates from Lightroom 6? For example, I buy today and I get the most recent version available, for example Lightroom 6.4... and what happens if in a certain period of time, the 6.5 version comes out? I get this update too? I'm not situation that Lightroom 7 came out which is obvious to me that you buy a new product update.

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Kind regards

  • in the color fill layer is go gray instead of sellected color

    Hi, did anyone know what is happening with the color fill layer? an exclamation point appears over the top of the half, that is the new color and a block on the lower half, and when I click ok the color fill layer is always grey

    I suspect that you are in grayscale. Go to Image > Mode and change to RGB.

    OK, Bob. This give a try.

    First, open a new file and make sure the background is white, not on Transparent that I suspect you have currently defined.

    Then, type your copy. Your layers panel will then look like the top of this picture...:

    and when you drag the text on the image layer, it will look like the lower part of the sample above.

    You can then position the text layer with the tool move

  • Can I create a javascript script in a captivate tip action

    Hi all:

    I get just the advanced Actions kick and I can't try to use the Javascript window.

    I have three captivate v_Var3, v_Var2, and v_Var1 variables.

    I am creating a JavaScript function in the Javascript window for concantonate in a v_AllResponses variable.

    Is there an example of such a script there, and can you point me to it?

    I looked at but no luck so far.

    You can define a variable to contain a space and use it in your advanced Action:

    The SPACE variable has a default value (see screenshot).

    This default value is the HTML code for a space.

    Not too many people know, but you can add HTML tags limited to a legend using variables of Cp.  Here are the supported tags:

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/ActionScript/3/Flash/text/TextField.ht ml #htmlText

    This opens up a wide range of possibilities for your variables dynamic text formatting.  For example, using a simple text caption, you can change the color of the text in red or green according to the tags surround you your variable with the runtime.
