event id

[laurence roussel12011930]

hi we search the event id (int number) into event list for "do action" / "edit content layer" / "update modified content"

[Stephen_A_Marsh]

So all three event codes?

[laurence roussel12011930]

yes only this 3

[Stephen_A_Marsh]

I'm not in front of a computer at the moment... The last two sound like they are related to smart object layers. Is the first on is it triggered by running an action or calling an action from a script?

[laurence roussel12011930]

hi we have photoshop 22 (and soon 23) we want do this script with python

import logging
import multiprocessing
import os
from time import sleep

import tkfilebrowser
import win32com.client

delay=0.1


def filter_file_to_export(file_name):
    result = False
    if file_name[-4:] == '.psd':
        result = True
    return result


def main():
    """ Main program """
    logging.info("début de programme")

    try:
        app = win32com.client.Dispatch('photoshop.Application')
    except :
        logging.error('logiciel non trouvé')

  
    #app.activeDocument.ActiveLayer = app.activeDocument.Layers.Item('<< Doubleclick to change etiquette')
    for layer in app.activeDocument.Layers:
        if layer.name == '<< Doubleclick to change etiquette':
            app.activeDocument.ActiveLayer = layer


    app.DoAction("EditContent", "Ensemble1")

    for layer in app.activeDocument.Layers:
        if layer.name == 'étiquette finie':
            app.activeDocument.ActiveLayer = layer

    app.DoAction("update pdf", "Actions par défaut")





    logging.info("fin de programme")
    return 0



if __name__ == "__main__":
    # logging pour les erreur, info ...
    level = logging.INFO
    fmt = '[%(levelname)s] %(asctime)s - %(message)s'
    logging.basicConfig(format=fmt, level=level)
    main()

my neighbour can do an action with script with photoshop 2020, but not my 22

we have this error

Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "C:\Users\infographie\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python37\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 628, in __getattr__ ret = self._oleobj_.Invoke(retEntry.dispid, 0, invoke_type, 1) pywintypes.com_error: (-2147352567, 'Une exception s’est produite.', (0, 'Adobe Photoshop', 'Argument illégal - argument 1\n- Valeur requise manquante', None, 0, -2147220262), None)

hi, into my codeline with doaction not work

and we can select a layer with name

but we want, modify content to this layer (it will open à new "windows")

in this new windows we will select a (dynamical) smart object and we want update the content (linked with external file)

but we do not find edit content and update content code

and we can register an action and play it, but doaction code not worke with python 

thanks inadvance

@laurence roussel12011930 – I don't know about Python, only Javascript.

"do action" = What exactly do you mean? How does one select this menu item or perform this command?

"edit content layer" = placedLayerEditContents

"update modified content" = placedLayerUpdateModified

[laurence roussel12011930]

hi, do action is play an action register with alt+f9

[Stephen_A_Marsh]

OK, this is probably

'ply ' (don't include the single quotes, this is four total characters, three characters plus a space character)

or perhaps

play

Feedback on these various replies would be appreciated.

[laurence roussel12011930]

ok will try
