3d Action Script Not Working Anymore...?

Hello
I would like to use "embedded" actions in Photoshop

For instance, I define some "basic" actions

- Action 1
- Action 2
- Action 3

And in a more complex action I would like to have

- New action
...........
Run Action 1
.............
Run Action 3
................

I've seen this possibility used in an action I downloaded, but don't see how I can do it with my own actions

Thanks for your help
Have a good day

I used to have an Action/Filter (can't remember which it was) that would turn a photo into what resembled the Matrix style effect. I was playing around as usual, and wanted to try it out on an image.

I haven't used it in a long while, but now I don't have any filters or actions that do it. I appear to have lost it, plus I can't seem to find it again on the web.

I don't suppose anyone here has something that resembles this.

Hi

I have a file with 760 layers plus a background that is a photo. The layers are rasterised smart layers from Illustrator

I have a task by which I have to have the background always visible. I then make the first layer visible as well as the background and then save for web and devices. Once one I turn that layer off and then turn the next layer on and then save for web and devices. 760 times Oh God!!!!

I know I can create an action and even a droplet from the action the issues I have is how do I tell the action to turn the first layer on and then optimize the resultant image and then turn that layer off and then move to the nest layer and so on through the 760 layers

Any ideas would be great

Thanks

Can I select and copy exactly half of an image (50% vertical selection) as part of an action? Each time I run my action it sets the selection to half of the size of the original image I made the action on, which doesn't work for me as all images are shot in different proportions.

Thanks!

Hi Guru's

I am fairly new to PS and currently using PS6. I have recently discovered the luminosity mask and am working on this with my chosen genre Wildlife/Nature/Landscapes. I have created the masks (vrun via an action) as you can see from the attached screen capture and things were running smoothly. I was creating different masks as required now for some reason as you can see from the screen shot in channels my RGB and Red Green and blue channels are fine but my masks are either now black and or white and when trying to load I dont and cant get my masks to show (marching ants) what have I done wrong? have I ticked something I shouldn't have? was working perfectly well and the current action works well on my PS5 copy so I am stumped.

Can you gurus help its driving me nuts.

I saw this photoshop action the other day I was impressed with. I'm on the hunt for a similar Action but I'm completely lost on what search terms to use in my hunt.

I have 4 images that give you an idea what the action does. I will also use the images to help explain my confusion.

IMAGE 1 -- nothing special here -- just showing you the image loaded into PS.



IMAGE 2 -- Image 2 shows you the first step of the action. It basically gives you an outline of the image and changes the background. I would love to have the background color to be all white but all in all this is ok.



IMAGE 3 - In this image I'm showing that you can use any brush to paint in what you want to show on the image. This is where I get lost in my search. I have been looking for an action that can convert the background like you see in image 2 above and than give you the ability to paint what you want to show in the image. I have used terms like "sketch painting" "pencil painting" "painting image" "brush painting" "mask painting" but I can not find any actions that does what you see in these images.



IMAGE 4 - When you are done brushing , you can continue the action and it will change what you brushed in to look like a painting.



Ok..............I'm looking for actions that basically does the above. The two key elements of the action is how it handles the background and also gives me the ability to use a brush tool to paint what I want seen in the final results. Most actions I seen will just convert the whole image to look like a painting.........I want more control of what is seen in the final results by using a brush to paint what I want seen in the final results. What it converts to in the end isn't important but I would love to find something where I could convert the image so it looks like a painting, a pencil sketch, comic sketch, etc.

You can help me with what to search for or even better yet, if you know where I can find such actions, please point the way.

I spent 2 days on GraphicRiveer with very little luck or what I find did not provide me enough info for me to be certain I was getting what I wanted. Other than GraphicRiver, I have been googling but no luck.

Thanks

i've created an action that selects color range many times with fuziness: 15. i'd like to change this value 15 to any other ex.20. right now i have to manually change it many times.

Hi guys,

What a great forum! I'm a photoshopper for several years now, and today i saw an event/announcement design on Facebook and i want to know how they call the effect that used on the person's image.

Thanks guys,

Hi forum,

I have a ton of images that I applied a script to increase its canvas size width if they were too narrow. I've changed my mind though, Now I want to get rid of the white area around the sides of these images created from extending the canvas size.

Anyone know how I can do this with a jsx script?

Thanks in advance

Hi All,

Request for assistance to create an action in Photoshop cs6 to Batch Change image background to white.

I need to batch convert high resolution product images through layer/vector mask +/or channels without using the selection tools.

Have tried to create white background layer and place original image made transparent behind ,but did not work for me.

If you can show the way for this or create and upload link to it,that would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your time.
