I am new to adobe script and actions.
First I just want to know if what I'm trying to do it even possible.
Imagine a simple rectangle in photoshop.
I have a table of angles and coordinates (could be an an excel file). let's say 10 rows. column A = angles and columns B and C are x and y coordinates, respectively.
I want to somehow have photoshop read this list, and make 10 layers that have the rectangle at the position and angle specified by each row of the table.
then, I want a timeline with 10 frames, each one having only the appropriate, sequential layer visible.
Is that possible?
If so, I don't want anyone to write the code (unless you're really into it). But I would like some pointers or some way to get started. I've never written script in adobe, but do have some programming experience in other oldschool languages.
Seems Scriptable to me – but I don’t know about the Excel file. Could you use a txt file instead?
Maybe you should post over on
