Background place automatization with action

New Here ,
Mar 18, 2023 Mar 18, 2023

Hi, everyone!
I want to make an "action" to insert a background into PNG images
However, I have a problem that if I make the "action" and then start it, it doesn't drag the background to the right place, the background is always on top
How can I type in the "action" to actually put the background at the bottom as the background?

@GeriHDHUN â€“ presuming that the layer is unlocked and not a Background layer...

 

Relative Layer Keycuts:

 

Move current target layer to front (top) layer = Command + Shift + ]
Move current target layer up = Command + ]
Move current target layer down = Command + [
Move current target layer to back (bottom) layer = Command + Shift + [

 

Select/target front (top) layer = Option + .
Select/target next layer up = Option + ]
Select/target next layer down = Option + [
Select/target back (bottom) layer = Opt

Windows users would swap the Command key for Ctrl and the Option key for Alt

Same problem,

I create post about it

https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-beta-discussions/action-don-t-generate-background-correctly...

 

Is any way to set action to generate background at the bottom?

Stephen_A_Marsh

Simply use (Command + [) after generate image is bad solution becouse the image results is worse than generating under the cut object immediately

You would need to have Make Layer in your action, to change the background into a regular layer, then create a new empty layer on the bottom, THEN add your content.
