How can I rotate all the text layers in a PSD document by Java Script

[Guest]

How can I rotate all the text layers in a PSD document by Java Script, Instead of, rotate the text layers one by one.

This is a pressing problem in the Engineering plan drawing. Thanks anyway!

It relatively easy to process all text layers in a document with a script.  However, rotating text layers well may be hard. Text can be a line or paragraph rotation can be done from any rotation point and can rotate text off canvas.  Text can be very complex to deal with.

In the same way, rotate all the text layers whithin one document will be easy in AutoCAD software. But Adobe Photoshop Is another case. Maybe, Adobe Corp should deliberate what to do tomorrow.......

Hi buddy.

Try this script. Define the angle you want to rate and you should be good.

// Rotate all text layer by a given angle.
// Script by Tomas Sinkunas www.rendertom.com
(function(){
    #target photoshop
    // Define the angle.
    var angle = 180;
    // Collect all text layers in the document
    var textLayers = getTextLayers(app.activeDocument);
    // Loop through all text layers in the document
    for (var t = 0, tl = textLayers.length; t < tl ; t ++) {
        // Rotate the layer
        textLayers.rotate (angle, AnchorPosition.MIDDLECENTER);
    }
    function getTextLayers (doc, layers) {
        layers = layers || [];
        for (var i = 0, il = doc.layers.length; i < il; i ++) {
            if (doc.layers.typename == "LayerSet") {
                getTextLayers(doc.layers, layers)
            } else {
                if (doc.layers.kind == "LayerKind.TEXT") {
                    layers.push(doc.layers)
                }
            }
        }
        return layers
    }
})();
