Script Can't Run in Adove Photoshop CS3

var sourceFile= new File(path);
var idPlc = charIDToTypeID( "Plc " );
var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
desc3.putPath( idnull, sourceFile);
var idFTcs = charIDToTypeID( "FTcs" );
var idQCSt = charIDToTypeID( "QCSt" );
var idQcsa = charIDToTypeID( "Qcsa" );
desc3.putEnumerated( idFTcs, idQCSt, idQcsa );
executeAction( idPlc, desc3, DialogModes.NO );

If you want to run that script in a newer version on Photoshop, use scriptListener and rerecord the place command.

@r-bin  Please Modify the code for CS3

var sourceFile= new File(path);
var idPlc = charIDToTypeID( "Plc " );
var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
desc3.putPath( idnull, sourceFile);
var idFTcs = charIDToTypeID( "FTcs" );
var idQCSt = charIDToTypeID( "QCSt" );
var idQcsa = charIDToTypeID( "Qcsa" );
desc3.putEnumerated( idFTcs, idQCSt, idQcsa );
executeAction( idPlc, desc3, DialogModes.NO );

Why don't you do it yourself with ScriptListener you can use in CS3?

[MXKS]

Yes < I have created this "Place Command"

[r-bin]

The path variable is not defined.

Do not use such a name ("path") for variable outside the function.

Everything works in CS3.

[MXKS]

I put the path But, Path is not access

What is its orientation in Windows, is it displayed the way it is placed or as portrait already? Anyway you may read original orientation by script before placing an image and recalculate it during placing. Just browse for appropriate thread on this forum.

If all your files are rotated to left and you want them to be portrait after placing, then record by ScriptListener rotation during placing, so it's going to be placed the way you like.

Place has a complex implementation its not straight  forward like Copy paste or duplicate layers or drag a layer between documents where the image pixels are  simply replicated.  It can be quite trick dealing with a smart object's layers bounds.

Places creates a harden object from the files beings placed in.  It has the Images files actual pixels.  These Pixels can not be changed by  Photoshop tools.   These Pixels are not the Smart object layers  pixels and the size of the smart layers bounds may be quite different.  There ate two scaling that may be made during Place,  How the harden pixels are rendered depends on the Placed image file type. RAW is via ACR, Vector files via import and Photoshop supported files types by Photoshop.   Image Rotation may depend on how Photoshop supported the Files meta data rotating  data.  All Smart object layers have am Object transform recorded in the layer's data that is use to render the layers pixels from the hardened object pixels.  Therefore it is quite likely the Smart object layers bounds is not the size of the smart object Image size.  A user can also add warping to the smart object layers object transform which can effect the layers bounds.

Resizing a Smart object layer can be complex.

Ignoring the orientation tag when executing the Place command in CS3 in action (or in a script) in DialogModes.NO mode is most likely a bug. Use a more recent Photoshop like CS6.

[MXKS]

is that possible to proper work of place command in cs3, can you send it proper orientation

[Jeff Arola]

Maybe this old thread will help:

Disable (or detect) automatic orientation rotation

Does't working ?

EXIF = function EXIF(obj) {
if (obj.typename == "Document") {
this.exif = obj.info.exif;
} else {
this.exif = obj;
}
this.caseSensitive = false; // if needed
};
EXIF.prototype.get = function(tag) {
var exif = this.exif;

for (var i = 0; i < exif.length; i++) {
var name = exif[0];
if (name == tag) {
return exif[1];
}
}

if (!this.caseSensitive) {
tag = tag.toLowerCase().replace(/\s/g, '');

for (var i = 0; i < exif.length; i++) {
var name = exif[0];
name = name.toLowerCase().replace(/\s/g, '');
if (name == tag) {
return exif[1];
}
}
}

return '';
};

// Usage

var exif = new EXIF(app.activeDocument);

var orientation = exif.get('Orientation');
