Question

What is 032 in the version, e.g. PS 100.032

Hi,

I'm on a Mac and ESTK lists all the versions I have with the "common name" (Photoshop CC 2015.5) and the internal version, like 100.032.

What does .032 exactly refers to? 32 bits? Shouldn't all Mac's PS be 64bits?

By the way, is there a way to query PS for its internal version string?

Thank you!

Davide

I look at that number every day and say. That should be 100.064. Then I think, I wonder what will break if I change it...

So it's a hold over then from 32 bit days, and might not mean anything - but maybe it does. Just check my Win system, and it's all .064

One thing I've noticed with ESTK is that often I can't run a script with it with any version of PS that is open by just using:

#target photoshop

Even if I set the dropdown list to the version I have open. it will ask to open a default version of PS. I will only be able run that particular version is I have the version number in the target line. It seems with just a generic #target photoshop, it should work on whatever is open.

Yes. You have to remove that if you have multiple versions installed and you want the old one. The logic is "what is the newest version, attach to it" Having two versions installed and running the old version BridgeTalk will attempt to attach but the detailed version numbers won't match and things stop. Ideally we would give a "wrong version" error or other information to tell you why things have stopped.
