Please try this:
...
// replace smart object’s content and save psd;
// 2011, use it at your own risk;
#target photoshop
if (app.documents.length > 0) {
var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
var theName= myDocument.name.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1];
var thePath = myDocument.path;
var theLayer = myDocument.activeLayer;
// psd options;
psdOpts = new PhotoshopSaveOptions();
psdOpts.embedColorProfile = true;
psdOpts.alphaChannels = true;
psdOpts.layers = true;
psdOpts.spotColors = true;
// check if layer is smart object;

Tried 'BatchOneImageCollage" before and this is what popped up:
Hello, when i try to apply the script i got error, how to fix this, thanks
Hi all,
I have working script which replaces smart objects with the new image, and it is working as expected.
function someFunction(){
//some code
changeSOContent();
}
function changeSOContent(){
var myDocument = currentDocument;
// some code
var imageGroup = myDocument.layerSets.getByName('images-group');
var imageSmartObj = imageGroup.artLayers.getByName('image-so');
var imageFiles = Folder(imgDirPath).getFiles(/\.(jpg|psd|png)$/i);
for (var i = 0; i < imageFiles.length; i++) {
imageSmartObj = replaceContents(imageFiles, imageSmartObj);
myDocument.saveAs((new File(destinationFolder + "/" + theName + ".jpg")), jpgopts, true);
}
}
function replaceContents(newFile, theSO) {
app.activeDocument.activeLayer = theSO;
var idplacedLayerReplaceContents = stringIDToTypeID("placedLayerReplaceContents");
var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
var idnull = charIDToTypeID("null");
desc3.putPath(idnull, new File(newFile));
var idPgNm = charIDToTypeID("PgNm");
desc3.putInteger(idPgNm, 1);
executeAction(idplacedLayerReplaceContents, desc3, DialogModes.NO);
return app.activeDocument.activeLayer;
}
But I want to add progress bar while script is doing the job. So I try like this
function someFunction(){
app.doForcedProgress("Progress bar start.", "changeSOContent()");
}
function changeSOContent(){
var myDocument = currentDocument;
//some code
var imageGroup = myDocument.layerSets.getByName('images-group');
var imageSmartObj = imageGroup.artLayers.getByName('image-so');
for (var i = 0; i < imageFiles.length; i++) {
var canContinue = app.doProgressSubTask(i, imageFiles.length, "updateProgress()");
if (!canContinue) return;
function updateProgress(){
app.changeProgressText("Current image: " + i + "");
}
imageSmartObj = replaceContents(imageFiles, imageSmartObj);
myDocument.saveAs((new File(destinationFolder + "/" + theName + ".jpg")), jpgopts, true);
}
}
function replaceContents(newFile, theSO) {
app.activeDocument.activeLayer = theSO;
var idplacedLayerReplaceContents = stringIDToTypeID("placedLayerReplaceContents");
var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
var idnull = charIDToTypeID("null");
desc3.putPath(idnull, new File(newFile));
var idPgNm = charIDToTypeID("PgNm");
desc3.putInteger(idPgNm, 1);
executeAction(idplacedLayerReplaceContents, desc3, DialogModes.NO);
return app.activeDocument.activeLayer;
}
But I've got error that said
General Photoshop error Occured. This functionality may not be available in this version of Photoshop.
for the executeAction(idplacedLayerReplaceContents, desc3, DialogModes.NO);
This is happening only when I add function through doProgrees();
I've try to figure it out for days, but with no success, because there is no enough search results for doProgress().
Photoshop version is CC 2017
I've also tried solution with WIndow palette with win.update(); but I've got flickering and is not working as expected.
Can anybody help me about this?
Thanks
