Changing Document Name of unsaved File

[Jörg Schmalenberger]

Hi,

is it possible to change the name of an opened but not saved document?

If I open a photo from ACR as an object, PS will append "as object" to the document name.

I'd like to delete that part of the document name, BEFORE it will be saved.

Or is there another way to do that?

app.activeDocument.name is read only...

Thanks!

Try this:

-X

var original = app.activeDocument;
var newDoc = original.duplicate(original.name.replace(' as object', ''));
original.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

If all you want to do is edit the name of the saved file then you could just do a saveAs and edit the name.
