Run actions with script

Question

Hi,can someone please help me with a simple script;I would like to run a script on multiple opened files (jpegs).I am alredy working with actions, but there are two different actions, depending of the image orientation.So the script should be simple, something like this:- if opened image width>height - run action1- if not, run action2 Actions alredy close images after execution so this script shod go through all opened files. This would save me a lot of time..Thanks!B.

@bojanp66203338 – Photoshop offers a limited set of Conditional Actions and Landscape Orientation is one of the options. In this example image taken from another discussion, the content of the Landscape or Portrait action is for image size, but it could be anything:

You can then use Batch to run the conditional action over all open documents.

A similar recent topic here:

You could create/use a script, however, the insert conditional action command will do the job.

EDIT: Here it is in legacy ExtendScript –

if (app.activeDocument.width > app.activeDocument.height)
	{
	app.doAction("Action1","Set1");
	}
else
	{
	app.doAction("Action2","Set1");
	}
