Question

Save As Does Not Change Filename on Tab

I have tried over and over again to set up an action to Merge Visible and Save As. The merge visible works. The save as works, except it does not change the name of the file on the tab. Therefore, the next save command does not show the latest filename. Using Photoshop version 22.4.1 on Windows 10 PC.

Did you try Flattening so there is just a background layer  that has no transparecy at all? If the merges layers can have transparency  Save As in 22.4 will not be able to save a jpeg.

JJMack. Thanks for the response. I was not clear. I was trying to save a standard Photoshop PSD file, not a JPEG. The operation has always worked before, and in fact is seemed to be working correctly a day or two ago. There is something flaky going on with the coding (an unitialized variable for those who know programming).

You described the action I recorded  and the test I made except I use  ac canon CR2 RAW file.  When I opened it in Photoshop through ACR 13.2 as an Object or Background layer the document mane was the image name with a numeric suffix without a .CR2..  I will download a Nikon RAW file and test with that for you.   I do not believe I will see what you see or your machines.. I do not use the bridge but will for you.


I was wrong from the Bridge I see your issue.  The same test from Photoshop there is no issue. I also do not get the .NEF in the tab. You should report the Bug to Adobe on the site for reporting Photoshop bugs https://feedback.photoshop.com/
