• A script to add several layer text names

  Hello world

  I am quite new to this, so I hope you don't mind if my question is maybe a bit simple for the pros...

  Basically, I'm looking for a way to add multiple names of layers in the form of text boxes. I found this script below pixxxelschubser, which already ensures the task.

  Re: Script to add the name of the layer to the artboard in text form

  However, this script updates all the text boxes in a position to (0,0). I'm looking for a way to change this, until the first box (0,0), the second area is (0.10), third (0.20) and so on.

  I guess it's sort of a loop thing, but I'm really not familiar with this, so just a little hint would be great

  Thanks in advance!

• Script to add the virtual computer to the inventory of different data warehouses

  I need a script that will go through all available databases and add the virtual machine inside of them in inventory.

  
  

  I know how to do this with:

  New-VM - VMFilePath ' [DATASTORE] vmfolder/vmname.vmx "-VMHost (Get-Cluster"NOMCLUSTER"|) Get-VMHost | Get - Random) - place (Get-folder folder_name) - RunAsync

  But we have hundreds of data stores and thousands of virtual machines. I suck at writing scripts in a loop, but it looks like that's what I need. I tried using wildcards for the VMFilePath - but it does not work. Must be another way.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Oh, I fixed it. I had a host that was plundered with partial connectivity to storage. The script was repeatedly tries to connect to this host jacked up.

  I managed to work around the problem by changing "Get-VMHost | Select - first 1 "to" Get-VMHost | Get-Random.

  Works fine now... as do all things Luke and Lam

• Add a layer mask

  Hello

  I came across this thread in the forum of items https://forums.adobe.com/thread/798304 and had the same question for the CC PS (I don't have the elements to see if this suggestion works there). I tried to add a selection to the layer mask to my pressing Shift/Ctrl and clicking on the thumbnail of the mask, but it does not work (the result has been to deselect the new selection and simply load the mask selection). Other/different way could there be to do?

  Thank you

  -David

  What operating system do you use?

  The same procedure, spoken in the post that you linked to should also work in photoshop cc

  But it probably really can't load the existing layer mask selection.

  After that you have the choice, you want to add to the layer mask, simply target the layer mask (click on the thumbnail of the layer mask to make it active), and then fill the selection with black or white.

• script to add the location of the log file

  Hello

  I am having trouble with a script that I wrote a year or two ago for the 5.1 vSphere hosts. Now I'm looking to run on vSphere 5.5 hosts, and I make mistakes.

  # Connection to the ESX host to be configured.
  $a = Read-Host "Please enter ESX FQDN:
  Connect-VIServer-Server "$a" - Credential(Get-Credential) se

  # Set the directory SYSLOG #.
  $hostName = get-VMHost
  $hostName = $hostName.Name.Split(".") [0]
  $logLocation = "[AVH-ESXLogs]" + $hostName
  Game-AdvancedSetting Syslog.global.logDir - value $logLocation

  Disconnect-VIServer $a - confirm: $false

  When I run the script, I get the following error:

  Cannot bind the parameter "AdvancedSetting". Impossible to convert the value of 'Syslog.global.logDir' to type 'System.String' type 'VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Types.V1.AdvancedSetting '.

  To: C9: tank: 19

  + Set AdvancedSetting < < < < Syslog.global.logDir - value $logLocation

  I'm guessing it's something stupid, I was messing around with this script for a few hours and it's starting to all look the same.

  Thanks for the help.

  Eric

  You will need to do a Get-AdvancedSetting front, something like that

  Get-AdvancedSetting - $vmhost - name Syslog.global.logDir entity. Game-AdvancedSetting - value $logLocation

  You get the current setting and then redirect to the next cmdlet, which makes the change.

  See also the examples on the Set-AdvancedSetting cmdlet.

• How to add a layer mask?

  It may be simple, but it seems confusing, please I need help

  Assuming that the variable myLayer is a layer object, the collection of all its masks is: myLayer.property ("ADBE Mask Parade");

  and his children are the groups of actual masks (which can be renamed). To add a mask to the collection, you do:

  var myMask = myLayer.property("ADBE Mask Parade").addProperty("ADBE Mask Atom");
  

  You can define the name, color, attributes of Rotobezier etc. (optional):

  myMask.name = "My mask";
  myMask.color = [1,0,0];
  myMask.rotoBezier = false;
  myMask.maskMode = MaskMode.ADD;
  

  To set its keyframable properties: property maskPath has special propertyType (SHAPE).

  You must create a Shape() object like this before you set the value:

  var myShape = new Shape();
  // set the vertices (coordinates of the vertices in layer coordinates, not comp)
  // + the inTangents (coordinates of the incoming Bezier handles with respect to the the corresponding vertices)
  // + the outTangents (coordinates of the outcoming Bezier handles with respect to the the corresponding vertices)
  // + the closed attributes
  var w = myLayer.width, h = myLayer.height;
  myShape.vertices = [[w/2, 0], [w,h], [0,h]];            // here: array of 3 "points"
  myShape.inTangents = [[0, 0], [0, 0], [0, 0]];        // array of 3 "vectors"
  myShape.outTangents = [[0, 0], [0, 0], [0, 0]];        // array of 3 "vectors"
  myShape.closed = true;
  // now set the value:
  myMask.property("ADBE Mask Path").setValue(myShape);
  

  In this example, all the tangents are 0 which gives a straight contour mask.

  Unless you have your loan of shape data, insert more complex values of the tangents is not so much straighforward.

• Script to add the reference frame graphic Page

  Okay, I'm ready to pull my hair.

The only thing I can find is a twitter link, and I can't access Twitter to work. Help, please!

  Thanks in advance... Melissa

  Hi Melissa,

• Is there a script to make changes specific attrubute to all layers in the project?

  Hello and thanks for your time!

  I have a project that contains a large number of compositions with many layers of shape of each.

  Is there a way to make global changes to property size STROKE of shape layers, for example 0px 1px?

  Thank you.

  This should work for you. Down is the line of code that you can set the value of the width. It will look like this a.property (i) .setValue (1.0); //STROKE WIDTH VALUE

  BEGINNING

  var app.project = proj;

  var comps = getAllProjectComps (proj);

  for (var i = 0; i)

  searchLayersAndChangeVal (comps [i]);

  }

  function getAllProjectComps (sourceFolder) {}

  try {}

  var itemAry, itemsInFolder, itemsInFolderLength;

  itemAry = new Array();

  itemsInFolder = sourceFolder.items;

  itemsInFolderLength = itemsInFolder.length;

  for (var i = 1; i)<=itemsInFolderLength;>

  If (itemsInFolder [i] instanceof CompItem) {}

  itemAry [itemAry.length] = itemsInFolder [i];

  }

  }

  Return itemAry;

  } catch (err) {alert ("error at line #" + err.line.toString () + "\r" + err.toString ()) ;}}

  }

  function searchLayersAndChangeVal (compSource) {}

  var layerCollect = compSource.layers;

  var layerCollectLength = layerCollect.length;

  var curLayer, accessories, propsLength;

  var propObjAry = new Array();

  for (var l = 1; l)<=layerCollectLength;>

  curLayer = layerCollect [l];

  If (curLayer instanceof ShapeLayer) {}

  getStrokeWidthAndChangeValue (curLayer);

  }

  }

  }

  function getStrokeWidthAndChangeValue (a) {}

  try {}

  var propLength = a.numProperties;

  for (var i = 1; i)<=propLength;>

  If (a.property (i) .matchName == "ADBE vector Stroke Width") {}

  a.Property (i). SetValue (1.0);          VALUE OF LINE WIDTH

  }

  If (a.property (i) .numProperties > 0) {}

• Attempt to add a soft music to all layers

  Hi all!  I'm thinking about the best method to add a solid layer for my entire project.  My goal is to give the video, which is used as a demonstration of the software, a bit of oomph!  We have a voice to narrators on all slides already takes place layer audio slide, so I need to add this soft music in the sound of a hidden object game properties.  Now, I can easily see how it would happen, but I don't know how you would eliminate the noise jumping from one slide to another.  You can edit audio from one slide to another unless it is the main audio layer.

  Do you think I need to look at the different software for that?

  Thank you

  Jeff

  Hi Jeff

  Try clicking on Audio > background sound...
