Hey I have been trying to use the generator image asset tool, my artboard name is slightly long e.g
DK-abc-commweb-bnr-con-mgs1, however it needs to be this long for work purposes. Previously it didn't seem to be a problem however now when I save and check the assets folder I am told the path is too long. It seems to allow less and less as I go on, any ideas why this is or how to resolve it?

Curious how many characters the path is, which would be the entire file system path to the assets folder plus the file names/extensions.

 

Try generating to a directory closer to the root of your drive to shorten the path while retaining the required name.

 

Good luck!

Hi Jenny,

Could you please let us know the version of Photoshop and the operating system you're working on?

Also, could you please tell us the exact name of the file, so that we can try reproducing the error at our end?

We're here to help, just need more information.

Regards,
Sahil
