• Automation of the creation of a text layer for a user to manually add the text.

  Hello

  I wonder if someone can help me here?

  What I want to do is to write a script that creates a text layer, stops, and then prompts the user to add their text, then save the file.

  So far, I have this:

  app.activeDocument = docRef

  textColor = new SolidColor

  textColor.rgb.red = 255

  textColor.rgb.green = 255

  textColor.rgb.blue = 255

  helloWorldText = "Hello, World!"

  newTextLayer = docRef.artLayers.add)

  newTextLayer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT

  newTextLayer.textItem.contents = helloWorldText

  newTextLayer.textItem.position = Array (0.75, 1)

  newTextLayer.textItem.size = 36

  newTextLayer.textItem.color = textColor

  Obviously this script adds just whatever text is in the helloWorldText line.

  As I say I would like that the script stops, prompt the user to add their text, be approved, then fill the script.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Simon

• Center of a sentence within the text layer

  Hi all

  I would like to focus a sentence within a text layer for example I have two phrases within a text layer and one of them, I want to be centered in the layer itself

  Is it possible to do?

  I don't know that I follow. If you want two centered sentences then create a text box by clicking and dragging in the pane of the model with the text tool, start to type, define the Center paragraph style and then make sure that the point anchor and position of the text layer are centred.

  Another way is to use the shortcut Alt/Option + Ctrl / Cmnd + shift + T to add a new text layer or just use the menu layer and add a new layer of text and the cursor will be centered in the Panel of the model which have not messed you with the base line. With the "centered" applied paragraph style you will be have a centered text.

  With the latest version of AE, you can add an expression to the position that calculates the area of a text field and then aligns the text field in the Panel of the model. If you really fancy, you can watch the size of a text field and offset as well vertically. I don't have the time to write this expression for you, but it is possible.

• Is it possible to save the text layer only to add several PDF?

  I create one editable sheet of labels.

  Once, I create all the text boxes and placed correctly, I wish I could add this text layer for the other sheets of labels with the same layout... without having to start from scratch.  Is this possible?

  Hope that someone knows the secret

  You can use the function of replacement pages.

• I can't use the Justification when a TEXT layer is selected...

  Hello...

  Please take a look at this picture and tell me what is the problem?

  http://img3.Tinypic.info/files/casc3lpzzmxpt9hu33hl.gif

  the menu turns off when I select a text layer for a justification to do about! but when I select another layer it seems!

  How can I use it when the text layer is selected?

  As I said, you must use the paragraph type you want to use the justification options, no pointer type. And no, this isn't how the paragraph Panel should look like.

  Point type:

• New default length for the text layer

  Whenever I have add a new image or a text layer, it goes the entire length of the model. Can I change so that it will only a few images by default?

  You can set it in the AE preferences.  But if you're dealing with a group of layers of text or still images, and they are believed to have different lengths, it can get to be a real pain.

  Many people find more easy just use the keyboard shortcuts for the value of the layer in & points: opt/alt-[for the point in opt/alt] - to the out point.  He works for several layers, too: just select the ones you want before using keyboard shortcuts.

• worksheet for text layer script?

  Does anyone know of a script that will create a new photoshop file, copy a line of text, spreadsheet, csv or text delimited an another doc, paste in a text layer, save and close, going on to the next line of text and repeat until the end?

  Excuse my bad English. You create in the folder where your script is a text file in which there are 4 lines. For example:

  Line 1

  Line 2

  Line 3

  Line 4

  The following script reads each line, creates a new doc, add a text layer above the background, written inside the content of the line and saves the document (psd format) in the folder where the script.

  MAC Finder or WINDOWS Explorer

  #target photoshop

  app.bringToFront ();

  main();

  main() function

  {

  currentPath = (new File($.fileName)) .path var + ' / ';.

  var fileTextName = currentPath + "lines.txt";

  var = read_file File (fileTextName);

  var line = "";

  var artLayerRef ="";

  var psd_Options ="";

  var newFile ="";

  Opens the text file lines.txt that exist in the scripts folder

  read_file. Open ('r');

  while(!read_file.) EOF)

  {

  Line = read_file. Readln();

  Create a new Photoshop document

  App.Documents.Add ();

  newFile = app.activeDocument;

  Creates a new layer of text art

  artLayerRef = newFile.artLayers.add ();

  artLayerRef.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;

  artLayerRef.textItem.contents = line;

  Saves the PSD options

  psd_Options = new PhotoshopSaveOptions(); [PhotoshopSaveOptions]

  psd_Options.layers = true; retains the layers

  psd_Options.embedColorProfile = true; Profile of canned

  psd_Options.annotations = true; preserves the notes

  psd_Options.alphaChannels = true; preserve alpha channels

  psd_Options.spotColors = true; preserves the inks

  Save the new document

  newFile.saveAs (file (currentPath + ' /' + line + ".psd"), psd_Options, true);

  newFile.close (SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

  }

  read_file. Close();

• Set different font sizes for certain parts of the text layer?

  I am a novice as AE is going, but I'm working on a script to dynamically change a project.

  The project in question has a text layer has a single string, but with variable font size (the text is a price, where the hundred part is a smaller font to the different initial values).   I want to use a script to change this text, but it is enough to assign a new text document does not retain the variable formatting - all figures are found with the same font size.

  Since the guide of the script, I see that the size of the font of a text document object is available, but only in a very limited form - definition of value he sets for the entire document, without options to set for a range of characters.  I would be fair to assume that programmatically create/update a document with several sizes of fonts is not possible?

  If this is the case, what would be my best options to achieve the same effect?  If the project is modified to have several layers/documents, is there a way to adjust the positioning to maintain good spacing/kerning between independent channels?  (I'm also a dollar with yet another sign size of police prior to the price, so I would have actually three pieces of text to position in my script and just to the right/left cannot justify two strings).

  Thanks for the tips!

  AFAIK, there isn't a convenient way for a script to maintain several font sizes once it changes a text document.

  You can however, use sourceRectAtTime() to get the actual span of text in a text layer, positioning and three text layers to get the desired spacing is not difficult.

• The PSD text layer is converted as pictures when they are imported for Muse

• Get a sample of the content text layer

  It would seem that the width and height of a text layer property are always the model they have. The content of a text layer can exceed the width of comps, but queerying with always returns the width of the model. Is there a way to recover the actual width of the layer of text for use in javascript?

  You must use sourceRectAtTime():

  layer = app.project.activeItem.layer (1);

  Rect = layer.sourceRectAtTime(0,true);

  Alert (Rect.Width);

  It returns an object with left, top, width and height attributes.

• How to import a list of words to separate text layer?

  I have a long list of words in a text file, for example:

  Michale Hitz

  Aldo Kimbro

  Kaila Jarvie

  Elizabet Coelho

  Felicia Sharpless.

  Suzette Jayne

  Myles Ruark

  Racquel Cremer

  Adrien Harling

  ...

  and I want to import them into Photoshop so that each name is placed in a specific text layer. Is there a simple way to do it?

  Here's a quick script that can do. It assumes that there is a text file on your desktop named "name list.txt" it also assumes that the text using a return between names file, this can be changed to commas or anything else you want to use. You must also have an open file to make it work. It does not define the font or the font size, but you can put in the script or select all layers later and change it at once.

  #target photoshop
  var doc = activeDocument
  var textFile = new File(Folder.desktop+ '/name list.txt');
  var list = readText (textFile).split('\n');

• Why the edges of the layer of a text layer bizarre behavior?

  I'm stuck on this. When I create a text layer in Photoshop CS5 and then finds the edges of the layer, and I can't understand why the edges of the layer are actually in the text itself. It is not extending the edges of the layer out to the real edges. This caused enormous problems in trying to align text layers before the rasterize the layer.

  Can someone explain to me why Photoshop behaves in this way? And there at - it a way to make it stop? For reasons too go in, I can not rasterize the layer at this point. I need to be able to snap everything first.

  I was able to force a similar look by choosing bizarre settings in my character Panel.

  You have the type of Point or area?

  

  If you can't find the correct settings, either reset the text tool or reset all tools. Go to your control panel (top panel). Right click on the text tool. Select the reset tool and all the weird stuff will disappear for the tool. Reset all the tools to put them all back to their default values.

• Make the text layer transparent logo

  Hello

  I want to create a logo with the text layer and the background transparent (so that both are found with the gray and white square)

  I have it done before, but when I now create the circle logo, create the text, then use magic want to select the text you want to delete and make them transparent, he said: I can't edit without pixelation of the image.

  Once I did I use the magic wand to try to make it transparent, it removes the text and watch only the circle.

  Can someone give me a step by step guide?

  The attached picture is the effect I want to create with transparent lettering.

  Thank you in advance!

  R

  You get the error because you are trying to remove pixels from your text layer.

  When you have the choice of characters, activate the layer with the circle, then click on remove. (Hide your text layer when finished)

  BTW better (than the magic wand) to select the text is in control, click on the thumbnail for the text layer.

• Basic conditional script based on the number of lines in a text layer?

  Just received help here to write a conditional script by using the font size of a text layer. Thank you all for this.

  The next hurdle is a conditional script using the number of lines in a text layer in the differential. Far as I can tell it not the layer details which specify the number of lines. Just '\r' for a return in the idTxt descriptor. Nothing seems to stand for a soft return as far as I can tell. I'll probably have to be able to count the lines with soft and hard returns.

  Any thoughts?

  I was playing around with this a bit and here is a small script to determine the number of rows. This is based on the self in the head, that I calculated to environ.108 times the size of the font.

  #target photoshop
  app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.POINTS;
  var doc = activeDocument
  var tL = doc.activeLayer
  var h = tL.bounds[3]-tL.bounds[1]
  var per = ((h/5)-(tL.textItem.size))/tL.textItem.size
  var num = h/(tL.textItem.size *1.108)
  
  alert(Math.round( num))
