Re: Data Set for Long Lists

Bojan Živković · Mar 03, 2025

Everything must be on a single line below variable names if you want to replace all layers with new text and images. Thus, everything should be a single data set, not ten data sets.

Bojan Živković · Mar 03, 2025

I see you have one pixel replacement variable; perhaps that's the issue? Try this: select the line with the image replacement, then use the Select File button to navigate to the image you want to use for the replacement.

Bojan Živković · Mar 03, 2025

That's how things work in Photoshop when you use Free Transform with an active selection on a pixel-based layer. If your goal is to transform the selection without affecting the pixels surrounding it, then use the command Select > Transform Selection.

Bojan Živković · Mar 03, 2025

That's how things work; it's not a bug. I will move the post to the discussions section.

Bojan Živković · Mar 03, 2025

It works using Photoshop actions as you have described. Not sure if script can help. I will tag scripters. @c.pfaffenbichler @Stephen Marsh

What version of Photoshop are you running? Go to Help > About Photoshop to find out your version.

You are missing the link icon (scale proportionaly) in the options bar. When it is checked or active, typing a number in either the Width or Height field will cause Photoshop to automatically populate the second field (either Width or Height) with the calculated proportional value.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 28, 2025

Please capture the entire screen with the Layers panel expanded and visible.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 28, 2025

Can you describe what is happening exactly? Do you see any error message?

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 28, 2025

There isn't any limitation based on my testing; you can clip two Curves adjustment layers to single pixel-based layers and restrict adjustments using layer masks. What program error are you seeing?

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 28, 2025

Another potential reason could be the keyboard input language.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 27, 2025

Have you checked Window > Paths panel to ensure that no path is highlighted or selected?

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 25, 2025

When recording an action, it is helpful to know the shortcuts Alt/Opt + . (period) and Alt/Opt + , (comma) to select the topmost and bottommost layers in the Layers panel. Clicking on a layer will hard-code the layer's name into the action step.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 25, 2025

You can try recording a short video or taking a screenshot using a smartphone, which almost everyone has nowadays. Without seeing what you are talking about, it is difficult to guess. I cannot reproduce the issue on my end, nor have I ever encountered a similar problem.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 24, 2025

You can achieve your goal by using Export > Save for Web, where you can adjust dimensions and utilize the Optimize to File Size function. As @Stephen Marsh pointed out earlier, please address the questions mentioned above.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 23, 2025

Depending on what you are looking for, there can be multiple solutions. If you want to move the crop rectangle and ensure it aligns with the edge, try placing a guide at the left edge, the crop rectangle should stick to it when moved freely. Another option mentioned is using selection. There is a setting in the options bar to define selection dimensions in advance before drawing or creating it. Later, use free transform selection to move it to the edge, using the guide as an anchor, or change the anchor to the left edge and then type 0 (zero) for the X position (screenshot below).

Do you have a perfect drawing in Illustrator but are getting dotted lines after exporting? Could you please take a screenshot of the export dialogue? Perhaps you could upload or send that AI file privately so someone can check it on their end.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 23, 2025

Just tested, you are correct. Would you mind recording the set path or inserting the path step followed by the transform path step, with a modal for the transform path allowed to temporarily solve the problem? In the past, I recorded several commercial actions and never used the Crop tool; I always opted for Insert Path, followed by Transform Path if necessary.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 22, 2025

Do you mean the Variables from the Image menu or a variable number of bricks? If you want a way to manually enter the number of bricks and hit the play button, then you need a script. It can be done using actions, but it's a tedious job, and you need to know how many in advance because there are a gazillion possible combinations. For each combination, one must record a separate action.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 22, 2025

Use the Save a Copy option for JPEG.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 22, 2025

There are also other possibilities, such as drawing shapes on the fly using Pencil tool, for instance, with sharp edges.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 21, 2025

I cannot find that shortcut anywhere in the keyboard shortcuts dialog, so it seems that it is one of the shortcuts that cannot be changed.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 21, 2025

It's not possible to record an action to change the gradient type, at least that's what I believe. I'll wait for the scripters to see this thread, but I'm suspicious that it is possible using a script either.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 19, 2025

If I understand your question correctly, the answer involves scripts, as actions have limitations. From what I gather, you want equal-sized borders based on a certain percentage of (here's the question: what? Width or height?) for any image dimension. It might be possible to achieve this using actions, but I'm not aware of that possibility. My recommendation is to wait for scripters to respond to this thread. @c.pfaffenbichler @Stephen Marsh @r-bin

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 19, 2025

Which software are you using? Could you post some screenshots to illustrate the issue?

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 19, 2025

With the move tool active, enable Auto Select > Layer in the Options bar, then click on the part you wish to select in the layers panel.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 18, 2025

Result is influenced by the tool and settings in the right-side panel. Please capture the entire Photoshop window so that someone can provide better guidance.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 17, 2025

As a user, I can confirm the above statement. In fact, I cannot imagine this amazing functionality working any other way. This morning, I successfully removed wrinkles from one part of a tracksuit photo using GenAi fill. It is fully aware of texture and color; otherwise, it wouldn't work.

Bojan Živković · ‎Feb 16, 2025

Are the images you are placing of the same dimensions and resolution? If so, you can record an action for that purpose. Do you want linked Smart Objects or just layers in your document scaled to the document dimensions?
