Hi There,

Thanks to this community i've just finished coding this script that:

1.search for psd files in a folder

2. opens the files and does some work with the layer and SO

3. saves the resulting tif in the same folder of the psd

I would try to upgrade this script to work also on subfolders... do you think is possibile?

the folder structure is

- Product name (folder)

  - product code XXX (folder)

      - filexxx.psd

      - fileyyy.psd

      - filezzz.psd

  - product code YYY (folder)

      - filexxx.psd

      - fileyyy.psd

      - filezzz.psd

Right now i'm able to launch the script for every product code folder. i would like to launch it on the Product name folder and let it work on every subfolders..

here's the code

// JavaScript Document
var destFolder, sourceFolder, files, fileType, sourceDoc, targetFile, pdfSaveOpts;
var i = 0;
// Select the source folder.
sourceFolder = Folder.selectDialog( 'Seleziona la cartella di origine');
// If a valid folder is selected
if ( sourceFolder != null )
{
    files = new Array();
    fileType = "*.psd"; //prompt( 'Select type of photoshop files to you want to process. Eg: *.psd', ' ' );
// Get all files matching the pattern
    files = sourceFolder.getFiles( fileType );
if ( files.length > 0 )
    {
        // Get the destination to save the files
        //destFolder = Folder.selectDialog( 'Select the folder where you want to save the converted .tif files.', '~' );
        destFolder = sourceFolder;
        for ( i = 0; i < files.length; i++ )
        {
            sourceDoc = app.open(files); // returns the document object
     var docRef = sourceDoc;
with (docRef) {
chiusuraPesa();
}
}
}
}
function chiusuraPesa(){
cercaShadow();
searchSO(); //cerca style
openSO(); //apre oggetto avanzato
applicaVisibile(); // applica visibile, via tracciati e canali, salva e chiude l'oggetto avanzato
salvaTiffDEF(); //salva il tiff definitivo 
}

You may also use this if you recreate a little  your script, so instead of putting files to array you can to process each at the time it's its turn:

function FSf(sF, dst, i) {
     sF = Folder(sF).getFiles()
     for(; i < sF.length; i++) {
          if (sF instanceof Folder) {
               dst.push(sF)
               FSf(sF, dst, 0)
          }
          else {
               open(sF)// tasks:
               aD = activeDocument
               aD.save(), aD.close()
          }
     }
     return dst
}
FSf(Folder.selectDialog
('Top Folder:'), [], 0)

Just specify file format in getFiles(), then instead of aD = activeDocument put your script or call the function with and finally instead of aD.save(), aD.close() use your saving options.

    Define var sourceFolder globally outside of any functions and at the beginning of the script.
    In the function code, do not use the var keyword when you are assigning the variable sourceFolder
