Hi, i wonder is it possible to work with brushes using photoshop scripting? I checked photoshop javascript documentation but I couldn't find anything about brushes. I also tried to record action but that also doesn't work, I tried to use script listener to get ps code, but code wont work also.

My solution was to place one path point and stroke, but for my work that will not help because I cant use paths and strokes in that case.

Is there anything that I missed or don't know, some way how to select desired brush via script and just stamp on layer so I can export later png of each brush. 

Thanks in advance!!!

Why can’t you use paths?

I'm working on a script for my work and the working script that I made with the path and stroke that I send them will not work because of this. This is what people that need script told me. So right now I'm looking for a solution to do this without that.

This action/script needs to work in Photoshop Elements as well as Photoshop, and so your idea won't work, since PSE users don't have access to paths.

If you are having problems with Photoshop Elements you may want to ask over on the Photoshop Elements Forum. 

 

What is the real aim of the Script anyway?
