• PS CS4 - how to perform batch processing which includes 'save' step and saves all the layers in PSD?

  I created an Action in PS CS4 to apply NIK Color Efex Pro4 to a JPG image, adjust the opacity of the layer CEP4 to 50% and then file > save as to a file in PSD format in order to keep the CEP4 and background layers in PSD format.  It worked well with the image that I was working in the creation of the Action - reopening of the PSD file, it showed the two layers as I wanted.

  But when I opened then four other JPG images, went to file > automate > Batch and applied this new Action to all open files, recording in the same folder as the original image, when I created the Action, all the PSD files created by the process of batch contain only one layer (Layer 0).  How can I me Batch process and always the CEP4 and the background of the layers in the PSD file?

  I swear it worked in the past, but I must be missing something.

  Thanks in advance for any help offered.

  See if implementing during a stage of duplicate layer in the dispute before the color efex pro stage of the work.

• New-need help separating the layers in psd files

  Good evening everyone,

  Could someone guide me please on how to separate the layers in a psd file? I try to remove the text (layer) of the background and have never done this before. Thank you in advance,

  Is there more than one layer shown on your layers panel?

  If there is a text layer, you can disable the lift for this layer or delete the layer.

• Photoshop script to copy all the layers of close PSD to open the current document

  Hi, I have very limited capacity script so this task is above my pay grade

  I'm looking for a script to read and copy all the layers in a PSD saved file and copy them into the current active document. The two documents have the same size and I need to be able to change text layers after copying. Anyone has any advice or examples of how I might be able to do this?

  Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

  Kind regards

  Marcus

  Try the script in entry below. You must open the destination file, and you must put in the path and name where your source file. It will not choose a layer from background from the source file.

  #target photoshop
  var sFile = new File('~/desktop/template.psd');//change path to template file
  var doc = activeDocument;
  var sDoc = open(sFile);
  
  var idselectAllLayers = stringIDToTypeID( "selectAllLayers" );
      var desc2 = new ActionDescriptor();
      var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
          var ref1 = new ActionReference();
          var idLyr = charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " );
          var idOrdn = charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" );
          var idTrgt = charIDToTypeID( "Trgt" );
          ref1.putEnumerated( idLyr, idOrdn, idTrgt );
      desc2.putReference( idnull, ref1 );
  executeAction( idselectAllLayers, desc2, DialogModes.NO );
  
  var idDplc = charIDToTypeID( "Dplc" );
      var desc5 = new ActionDescriptor();
      var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
          var ref2 = new ActionReference();
          var idLyr = charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " );
          var idOrdn = charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" );
          var idTrgt = charIDToTypeID( "Trgt" );
          ref2.putEnumerated( idLyr, idOrdn, idTrgt );
      desc5.putReference( idnull, ref2 );
      var idT = charIDToTypeID( "T  " );
          var ref3 = new ActionReference();
          var idDcmn = charIDToTypeID( "Dcmn" );
          ref3.putName( idDcmn, doc.name );
      desc5.putReference( idT, ref3 );
      var idVrsn = charIDToTypeID( "Vrsn" );
      desc5.putInteger( idVrsn, 5 );

• Extend the 'footage' imported PSD layers

  I imported a layered Photoshop file into After Effects as a model in layers with several layers of "footage".psd:

  

  I have created and edited the comps in the 20 main comp with animations and effects. Now, I need to extend the .psd layers (all 7 s ~) to the length of the main comp(20s).

  I tried dragging to extend their regions and right click > time > enable time Remapping(this allows me to extend the region with keyframes, but the content still ends proportionally short of the containing comp duration).

  When I right click on the layer of .psd and click on 'Open Source layer', the preview displays the duration of the layer extending at once as it shows in the timeline(~7s)...

  

  but green "render bar" only goes to 5s. And no content is visible while the playhead is at 6s, below...

  

  This is also when I drag the playhead in the timeline main comp - layers with this problem disappear to 5s, even if their areas extend to 7s.

  1. I need to get these parts of layer to increase the length of my 20 years comp.

  2 it seems that the source of the layer is 5 s when I "Open Source layer", then even if the region is currently being extended to 7 s ~, 'content' only goes to 5s.

  How can I extend it to 20 seconds without doing all my images keys/animations/effects all over again?

  Or is there a way to re - import only the layers to lasting longer, but keep all my keys/animations/effects images.

  Using the latest Photoshop CC 2015.5 v2015.3 & after effects CC.

  Thank you!

  Sure sskaz is on, check if there is a timeline attached to your psd in Photoshop and delete it:

  

  You can also freeze your layers in After Effects and make more time

• 'Origin' and form layers empty in the file freda.psd

  I opened the file "freda.psd" and noticed a layer named "Origin" in the record of the head and even a few layers that seem to form layers that are empty, IE. try to turn all that is in the layer so that you can see where it is, opens the message "could not change because the bounding box original is empty.

  What are these layers for?

  Why are they empty?

  How to move them to define an origin (I presume they are supposed to be points pivots or something)?

  Thank you.

  You can create handles in Photoshop using the pen with the option of "shape". It's just a single point which animation character can be used as a handle for various purposes.

  You can also create these same handles in the Panel of the puppet. Check out DaveS tutorials for more information.

• working with layers of animation in CC open psd file so that the layers appear as frames?

  I recently got Photoshop CC and work on animations with limited success, I'll open a psd file and sometimes it will open with the layers as frames and other times not I can put the layers in the timeline one at a time but it is very time consuming that some files are 100 or more layers I'll open the file and it will take only a layer of the timeline when I convert to video editing I'm going to drag the layers up to the first line, but when I go back to the timeline, all are invisible except for the first image I know that it's probably something obvious, but I can't understand it.

  PSD file have been save with aura image Animations Frames in an animation image in the timeline panel.  PSD have been saved without animation image and aura created video or animation of an image or a video in the timeline palette.

  You can create a picture Animation timeline or video for layers Document has nothing in the editing Palette panel.  If you create an image Photoshop Animation can make frame for all the layers quickly and easily.  Create the Animation of the image by clicking on the animation of the image to create in the palette of the timeline. Which will create a single image in the animation of the image. Use the drop-frame animation Palette, then click on branding point layers. An image for each layer will create it in the document.  If the frames are in the wrong order three is in the same menu drop-down to change their order.   There is also an element that will make any new added layers are visible on all frames.  You can also have Photoshop generate tween two frames with the interpolation point.

  Here is an animation of image that I created with two layers that are visible in all frames.  A layer of layer mask.  I created two frames. The first and last frames where I changed the position of the layers which has the layer mask in both frameworks.  Then I had Photoshop generated all the other frames between the first and the last images.

  

• How layer comps are linked to the layers in the PSD file?

  I am developing an application of external command line c ++ to analyze a PSD file (using the PSD specification - http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/photoshop/fileformatashtml/PhotoshopFileFormats.htm#50577 409_17115) in order to extract important information. One of the main things I need is information linking layers to the layers themselves. Digging through the section Image resource specifying "Layers - 1065" I'm only able to extract the name, comments, etc. on the comp. layer is the question I have: how the layers are referenced by the layers in the PSD file? I need to know what layers are applied to each layer comp. Looking through the scripts provided with the PS (for example layers in files), the composition of layers is always "applied" before watching to see what are the layers inside this model. It seems to be the creation of an Action and the implementation of this action with the class identifier of the layer comp before watching his diapers, so this method should know on which layers are referred to by this layer comp. Specifically, what do I need to be able to do and, so far, have failed.

  It is important that I stick with c ++ & that it be an external application, so the Plugin SDK is not much help here.

  I would really appreciate any ideas/suggestions on this subject.

  Thank you all.

  If someone falls on this issue once again, last night, I found the data using a control of the layer comp binary ID I have model layer section. The composition of layers--> data layer is inside a section of "undocumented"data under the tag Layer Records: shmd

  Hope this helps someone.

• The flattened. PSD: Questions, thoughts and Suggestions

  It's the rare occasions, but as a dum-dum, I accidentally saved a flattened psd and in turn, will have to rebuild. It is not a huge disadvantage, but a drawback however. The situation provoked a discussion with a co-worker about the point (if any) to save the flattened psd files and eventually led me here. So, here are my questions:

  1. Someone has intentionally flattened .psd files? If so, what are the benefits?
  2. Should there be an option in the preferences to Photoshop, it is impossible to save the flattened psd files?

  Thanks in advance for your comments / insight in the matter.

  Photoshop has a protection device. When you go to file > save as and save it as a PSD, you can uncheck layers. In return, Photoshop adds "copy" in the name of the file, save as a separate flat file.

  The only way you would cheat which is to flatten the layers in the layer before menu with save.

  If you work with multilayer files, it's always good to have will backup versioned.  Multilayer files get corrupt from time to time.

  Time machine if you have a Mac and the history of the files if you have Windows. Dropbox will also save versions and off-site storage is a good idea, especially if you travel frequently.

• There is text on my photo, but there is no text layer in the layers panel. What is everything?

  There is text on my photo, but there is no text layer in the layers panel. What is everything?

  Hi juliannz,

  The layers panel will contain the text only if you have saved the original under a PSD file.

  If it was saved as a jpeg, png, it not the layers.

• How a copy paste a text layer of the file one psd to another?

  Hello

  CS6

  I select the type tool, type some text, create a text layer.

  I went with this still active text layer, ctrl a, selection puts on the perimeter of the entire image, ctrl c (copy) and clicked on the psd file tab I wanted to put it in and went ctrl v (paste)

  text appeared.

  HOWEVER... This isn't text, try selecting the it, you can't!

  To the search, in the layers palette, it is not not a text layer as it was in the psd source.

  going on what?

  I copy paste on this occasion, not drag drop.

  Merlin

  Instead of copying the pixels (what does your process) instead do a right-click on the text layer - select «Duplicate layer...» "and where it says - Destination - click on the dropdown next to"Document"and the change to the file that you are trying to move the text to.

• Is there anyway to keep the layers in Photoshop Elements when recording in format .jpg?

  I am new to the use of PES and I like their concept of layers so that the original photo is not altered, however, my preference is to save all my files using .jpg.  I actually discovered yesterday that after 3 weeks of scanning in very old family photos, then using PSE11 and using layers and then backup to .jpg, now when I open it again these files in EPS that the layers created have disappeared.  Help, please!

  Thanks for the recommendation on Googling PSD to JPEG conversion that I'll look in.  My plan is I think the first scenario that you mentioned.  I spent a week off the coast during Christmas pictures old many sorting that I inherited and have since bought an Epson V600 Scanner that came with Photoshop Elements.  I spent a number of weeks of research on the best practices to use with the Epson scanner analysis, then an equal amount of time familiarizing myself with Photoshop Elements I've ever used before.  In particular, compared to the other I used photo editing tools, I really like the ability to retouch PSE and localized sharpening / Brush tool for a lot of old photos that aren't in the best of shape.  To change things (just if I'm not scanning for a year and then touching up for another year +), I'm scanning a group of photos I've sorted by theme and then spending time using Photoshop on these, and most of the time I'm scanning only pictures of people that I know to be members of the family or friends of family nearby. Once this batch is finished, I was moving to the next batch of scanning and treatment with PSE.

  Funny you should mention the kodacolor the slides that you have scanned.  I did this same work (approx. 5000 slides that my dad had in his lifetime) about 7 years ago with a slide scanner that I bought at the time.  Like you, I've scanned everything and then using a tool (Zoombrowser) editing of Canon, I hit only these slides scanned with meaning for me.  Now the phase 2 (7 years later) is scanning in all my photos of old parents, and I've already sorted on the pictures, I think no family, so now are using PSE, I expect I'll do some sort of button until most of them.  Sorry for the lengthy response, but I enjoyed reading of your recommendations and appreciate the help and guidance you provided.  Thanks for all your help and your time.

• Open the file in .psd PhotoShop CS6 currpt/no:(mon travail beaucoup)

  Hi friends,

  Today accidentally my photoshop has closed at this moment there, I work on my model of the last 2 months demo work, so once again, I open my file .psd is the guest of the error "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop".

  Several times, I'm trying, but it can not open my .psd file. If someone in the face of this type of problem or have any solution for this problem I'll be very grateful to you, of course its my two months of hard work.

  Thank you

  Here is something that is works in many cases. You will use fires of artifice to open and re - save the Photoshop file. This will fix the majority of corruptions.

  Open the corrupted Photoshop file in Fireworks.

  Fireworks lets save the .psd Photoshop format. (Important: do not save a Fireworks file or another extension, because Photoshop may not recognize the layers, or you could lose data.)

  Don't forget to give your file a different name when recording, so you will not overwrite the original. (A good idea would be to create a backup of your original before trying this procedure).

  Open your newly created file in Photoshop.

  Do not forget that many effects will not show in Fireworks, but should appear in Photoshop layers.

  If that does not work, try to look at the answer here: http://www.filerepairforum.com/forum/adobe/adobe-aa/photoshop/590-restoring-a-corrupted-ps "d-file"

  Try a repair tool:

• Export the layers separately

  I have Photoshop CC and I loaded a PSD with layers inside.

  Someone created the PSD design to me.

  I'm trying to export all the layers separately but when I go to the Scripts > > export layers to files, he mixes a little a particular layer with all of the other layers.

  If I can ever get a layer on its own.

  Take a look at one of these exports below. The upper shadow should be on its own, but its accompanied by lower layer also. All other files are also accompanied by the lower layer. No idea how I can export just all layers of their own?

  

  I moved the top layer down and he run. This time, it worked!
