Hello everybody,

I would be pleased if you can help me, I need to make a plugin that can interact with photoshop so i can execute it from the terminal without needing to open photoshop anymore and deal with a group of images that need to be put in HDR panorama forms. To sum it up, i would know if there is a means that can realize the automata and how. You can ask me more if it's no too clear. Sorry to my poor english

Thank you very much guys!!

You would need to write a new script that you would include Photoshop's Merge to HDR script in. Create the list of files you want to process through merge to hdr then use the function

mergeToHDR.mergeFilesToHDR = function(filelist, alignFlag, deghostFlag)

You may want to look at the script "PhotoMergeFolders.jsx" less than 50 lines of code. It does something like you want to do with merge to hdr but with Photomerge.

It is is quite like what you want to do with merge to hdr. If you want a custom script you need to create it yourself or pay a programmer to create one for you. You should now have all the help you need.

I got the whole code. It is about 900 lines.

Would you help me to personalize it.

I want it to:

take 3 photos directly in a specified folder without browse in it everytime and manually

open them

choose a preset setting

and run the hdr process

Ok!!! And if, we don't care about the number of files first. Let's go by step. I'll think about it after.

How will the script like?

I have just read your process, and it looks as if some of it could be automated.

You might only need a Bridge script, that would do the HDR of the selected files, then you could make your adjustments and save as required.

Well!

I despair of finding solution.

Could you explain me a bit, the concept of bridge script.

Photoshop cannot operate unless it is open.

Hotfolder-setups are possible but I am not sure what you are trying to achieve exactly.

I want to launch Photoshop with a script, and deal with images automatically without any user's intervention. So, i want exactly to run the program, choose the images and run the photoshop's action script.

Look up Droplet. Its an executable that will invoke Photoshop and run an action on the files dropped on the droplet. Perhaps you can start the droplets passing a file to work on. Its seems like it should work. I created on one my desktop and created a shortcut for it. I edited the shortcut and passed a file to the droplet.exe and it worked on my Windows PC.

Photoshop menu File>Automate>Create Droplet... The last step of the action I would think should be quit Photoshop.
