Thanks again Ussnorway​! Ha ha ha, I feel you about the religion thing. I admit, I am an Intel boy. But then again I also got there from experience. Somehow I am tempted to go for the AMD... I like adventures, and I like speed. But tweaking drivers like in the good old days. Gotta admit I got lazy at micromanaging my system. Rather use my time creatively. Anyways, thanks, I'll sleep on it. ... View more

Thank you Ussnorway​! I already spend the money 3 months ago as I said in my initial post. That said, the distributor here would actually switch my motherboard, cooling and sell me a Thread Ripper 2920X instead of the i7-7820 I can't get. But I am concerned about money and I would actually spend about 250 more doing this. I had an AMD system a few years back and had trouble. But I was running Maya 3D at this time and I am pretty sure AMD improved. Still I don't like the T Junction of AMD at 68 degrees Celsius. Where do you get the information that AMD out performs Intel with Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom? I guess it will be a different story for After Effects and Premiere. But from what I read so far form Pugetsystems and others that AMD is 20 - 30& slower.. Would you have some links I could read up? ... View more

Thank you for your input Mylenium​ I guess you are right. I was hoping that the 500 Mhz higher frequency on one or two cores factually 25% more speed and I'd expect maybe 10 - 15% more in the real world. Those 500 Mhz in itself is faster then the machine I used to do 3D on 20 years ago... I wish the Adobe apps would run better on multiple cores. But I read it's happily crashing along when Turbo Boost 3 is enabled besides not making use of more than 4 cores. or getting slower over time... But yeah, besides loosing 8 PCIe lanes I guess I will go with the i7-7800 and upgrade in the future as $500 in price difference can actually buy a lot of friends many dinners. ... View more

It's time Adobe! Thread is 8 months old and such a very very very basic feature is still not implemented... This can be done easily and doesn't need more space. The deleted files can be added to the total space of an account and removed if the user decides to empty the trash. And if the trash is emptied, ah well, then the files are gone. Just lost some files because of this. This experience is much more cumbersome than implementing the feature... ... View more

I can see that looking at the link you provided. I guess I will throw all scripts into one big one, or keep them separate so I can go back to editing my photos instead of coding, and use AutoHotkey to automate a batch of images. Thanks again for your help and effort. Mucho apprish! ... View more

WOW - You know what you're doing. Thanks for the fix/addition!!! And thanks for the pointer. I'll take a close look! ... View more

You are right! I do have multiple text input fields and those only contain one value each. So I will have separate values. Cool. But I guess my concept is flawed. I wish Photoshop would record the values form the dialog when I run my script into the action as well. Just like it does when I record a Gaussian Blur filter value into an action. But hey, thanks for chiming in! You made me re-think my concept and I realized that it's flawed. I need to find a way to record running my scripts including the values I set. So Auto Hotkey for Windows or Selenium may be my solution. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nevertheless here a proper documentation of my issue with your script. Maybe it helps someone else if we solve this, or call me out and make me realize that I don't understand your script... Then I'd be very sorry to have wasted your time As far as I understand, should write numbers to a text file eliminating the separator e.g. "," (comma). - Entering "30,40,50,60" into the dialog of your initial script saves "30405060" into a text file. - What I needed was that the text file contains: "30 40 50 60" - Currently, with my alterations of replacing with "\n", the script saves: '3040 50 60" into a text file. It seems that the first comma does not get replaced with the new line "\n". - If I do the same thing and replace the comma with "gg" the result is: "3040gg50gg60" Again the first instance of the separator is ignored and not replaced. ...

Hi there, Glad that I found this script c.pfaffenbichler Thank you! My work is a collection of scripts to copy an image/photograph and create a document for printing with a frame around the image and a watermark. Now I am trying to run my scripts in a batch and therefore save the dialog settings so the next time the script gets called the values are loaded automatically. Whilst it ain't entirely clear to me how to achieve this, I think this script gives me a good starting point. Problem is that I got stuck at the beginning. I changed the script to add new lines after every value it reads from the input dialog by adding "\n" on the replace loop. But it seems to only add the new line on the second number I enter in the input dialog. Here's the output of entering 30,40,50,60: 3040 50 60 I must be doing something wrong I guess. And I apologize right here and now, I am not a programmer per se. I can cobble together bits from other people and the reference manual and I am am capable of adding the missing pieces so the script does what I want. Update: I was able to find where the problem is. The regular expression works fine: Scriptular - Javascript Regular Expression Editor But in this part something happens: // filter for checking if entry is numeric, thanks to xbytor;      numberKeystrokeFilter = function() {           this.text = this.text.replace(",", "");           this.text = this.text.replace(".", "");           this.text = this.text.replace("-", "");           if (this.text.match(/[^\-\.\d]/)) {                this.text = this.text.replace(/[^\-\.\d]/g, "gg") // Set new line here "\n"                alert("Found NewLine");                };           if (this.text == 0) {this.text = 1}           }; With the alert("Found NewLine"); I can see that the result is: 3040gg50gg60 or using the \n it is: 304050\n60\n (where the \n shows as empty character in Photoshop) Any advice would be greatly appreciated. ...

Hi Mayuri, Sorry, I missed your reply as it was way up on this thread... This checkbox is checked all along. That's my whole  point. i.e. it does show about 80-90% of the images as already imported (grayed out). It's that 10-20% that show as new that are confusing. If I uncheck that option all the images show up as new. I am sorry I didn't mention that specifically. Alex EDIT: Added screenshot that shows Lightroom Classic CC mport screen and the Windows folder with the already imported images. I am starting to suspect that Lightroom get's confused by the images that are shot using the iPhone "Live" mode which makes a 2 second .mov file alongside the JPG. Lightroom then treats the .mov files as sidecars to the JPG (see my reply all the way down in this thread). Were you at all able to reproduce this at all at your end or is it working just fine? If so, please try with images in the mix that were shot using the live mode on the iPhone and we might have a winner. ... View more

I'm about to pull my hair out.  There's further problems with this. - After importing right click the folder where you just imported images from the iPhone to and choose "Synchronize Folder..." Images get reported missing while they're clearly on the disc. When I choose to synchronize the folder the JPGs get removed from the catalog and the MOV files remain. This is beyond me... Why o why?? EDIT: After syncing a few times because I assembled a panorama outside of Lightroom and edited this in Photoshop it seems that all images are back in the catalog. Not that I would have noticed it importing the missing files again tho'. Plus it groups JPG and MOV files under one node, but displaying two nodes in Lightroom. Weird, or? ... View more

Which is a stone age solution... ... View more

Thanks for your reply Rick! As said above, I did not edit any of the images in between imports. I also don't see the naming difference you mention. It shows e.g. IMG_3507.jpg as new. When I search that image in Windows Explorer I can find it in the folder that's presumably in LR. Plus there's the quirk that after importing, when I sync the folder by choosing "Synchronize Folder..." in LR, just to make sure everything is in order, I get a report about missing images. But again, when I test-serach a few images LR shows as missing, I can find them through Windows Explorer. The main problem with syncing iPhone, and what makes me feel very uneasy, is that there's many images. And on the phone, I tempt to shoot a few after each other at the same location to make sure I got the shot I wanted. And then having to go through the phone, the folders in the OS and compare both to what I got in LR becomes very messy and frustrating. I am actively investigating if I could use Lightroom CC to sync phone images to the desktop and skip the manual import. But so far that was also pretty frustrating tbh. Especially with the naming of the products. One thing the people that decided to rename Lightroom as we knew it to Classic and making Lightroom CC a new product with the same name, is that it creates a huge mess if you start Googling Lightroom CC problems. The results barely point to the new Lightroom CC, most of the times to the one that's now called Classic and then there's Lightroom Mobile problems coming into the mix... In the future, if you plan to release a new product, give it a new name!! That charade is hurting us and in the end your products... ... View more

No I didn't that's the strange part about it. I simply connect the phone, import images, disconnect the phone then connect it again and there's new images that I just imported. ... View more

Ok... This seems messed up. Time after time Lightroom Classic shows images that I just imported as new. Even though I just imported them and have not touched them in any way on the phone or on the computer... Plus when I synchronize the folder it shows images that are missing but when I click on "Show in Explorer" the images are clearly there. I am really confused about this and I suspect something is going terribly wrong here or I am doing something the software does not anticipate. Seems to me a like this is not ready for prime time. It works perfectly well when importing images from an sd-card. Why is it so hard to do that from the phone? I also read about people having issues importing from a connected camera. Can it be that the data is communicated differently when connecting a device/camera? ... View more
