I think maybe I wasn't clear enough?  I am using the image asset generator in Photoshop and it auto puts the assets into a new folder in the same folder as the document which is great but in this case I would like to have a bunch of photoshop documents generate the assets into the same root folder rather than creating a separate folder for each photoshop document.  ie.   Normal process ...

RedBalloon.psd file creates --> /RedBalloon-assets folder with redballoon.jpg inside

BlueBalloon.psd file creates --> /BlueBalloon-assets folder with blueballoon.jpg inside

 

What I'm wanting to do ...

RedBalloon.psd creates --> redballoon.jpg in same root folder

BlueBalloon.psd creates --> blueballoon.jpg in same root folder

 

What code would I need to use to have the image assets generator do this?

You are able to store Assets in any location whether it be a new or existing folder. That said, I prefer to create an asset folder within a project so that everything is well organized.

You can store an Asset in any folder you have access rights to created files in.  Normally you want to  use an organizer, a library system to manage your Assets some file manger. So your assets will be in folders that were created to house your assets in
