Re: Repeat last command on photoshop

So-graphic · ‎Jun 05, 2018

I've assigned a shortcut to "hide layers" in the shortcut assignments (Opt + Shift + Cmd + K) = Cmd + Shift + M Then If I Double use it, it first hide all the layers and then show them.

Thanks for your help anywya Dave, The only way I found to "see" an hidden layer without clicking on the eyeball on its left is to right-click on any visible layer eyeball and select "hide/mask all others layers", but again, their names will appear on the scripts…:'(

Thanks Dave, When you just click on a layer to hide it while it's not the "active" one, the photoshop scripts writes : "hide "shadow" layer" And as I'm almost sure the whole visuals won't be properly named layer-by-layer, this action will block the script. Just a single letter can do that. If the layer is called "Shadow" and not "shadow", the script will freeze. That's why I prefer photoshop to "hide the active layer" as it won't name it into the script. This is the reason why i'm using shortcuts instead of the mouse to select the right layer to work on. Photoshop will write "hide top layer" instead of "hide "product" layer". Again, I hope this is clear, sorry about the lack of appropriate words, I'm working on a french version of photoshop.

Thanks Dave, Good point. But now, how can I select the hidden-layer "shadow" without using my mouse (in order to prevent Photoshop from naming it in the script) ? The shortcuts I've mentionned earlier only work for visible layer, not the hidden ones…

Yes, I would if I had any comprehension of Javascript… One headache for the day is enough Thanks again

Yes, I'm French. I'm using Photoshop CC now, and "scripts" has turned into "actions" also ^^. I've tried the repeat-transformation into the script and it seems to work. To avoid Photoshop to write "select PRODUCT/SHADOW/BACKGROUND layer" in the script, I use (Alt + , - ; - : or 😃 to navigate and select the wanted layer. So photoshop just understand "selecting foreground layer" or "selecting background layer" without naming them Thank you SO much for your help, I was becoming crazy with this simple action.

Thanks c.pfaffenbichler I know scripts a little bit and i also know that they don't like when you use the mouse and when you click to select a layer, because its name will be on the script. That's why I prefer using shortcuts to navigate through layers instead of using my mouse. Navigating through the layers into a script isn't a problem. I'd like Photoshop to write "center the layer horizontally" and "center the layer vertically" instead of "shifting layer" Sorry if i'm not crystal clear, my english is a little rusty

Thanks Dave, But the whole group is centered, not just the product in it…

So-graphic · ‎Jun 05, 2018

I've tried linking the layers, but the drop shadow is moving just as it wasn't linked to the product and it end-up excatly underneath the product instead of the left-hand corner of the product (for example). Is a Selection active? no Are you moving the Layer or aligning it? Aligning them with this tool :

So-graphic · ‎Jun 05, 2018

Thanks a lot c.pfaffenbichler The script is working with the "move-transform" action, but it must be done using the mouse and I'm wondering if it's not going to be a problem when I'll have to apply it to my 150 billion visual. Do you think there would be a solution to automatically-align the object once "transforming-it" instead of drag and drop it at the center of my file ? Thanks again

So-graphic · ‎Jun 05, 2018

Thanks Dave, But the drop-shadow isn't a layer style. it's a layer by itself…

So-graphic · ‎Jun 05, 2018

Thanks for your answer. I've tried linking the layers, but the drop shadow is moving just as it wasn't linked to the product and it end-up excatly underneath the product instead of the left-hand corner of the product (for example). The "move-transform" thing is working, i'm trying it into a script…

So-graphic · ‎Jun 05, 2018

Hi ! I have to work on a very high number of visuals very quickly and I must be very precise in my movement so each and every of my visuals will look the same at the end. So I don't want to use arrows on my keyboard as they are not very precise, especially if my visuals are not exactly the same size/height. So I need to use "actions" (or scripts) to achieve my work efficently. The files i'm working on have 3 layers : 1 - the product2 - its drop shadow 3 - a white background I want the product to be centered in the file with the exact same drop shadow as before but I can't find a "repeat last command" or "repeat move" on photoshop. The "repeat last tranformation" doesn't work as no transformation has been done on the layer "product", just a movement. Does anyone has an idea for this ? Thanks a lot
