Hi All,
firstly sorry for my English, and thank you (The reader) for reading my question.
So basically i am trying to find/combine scripts for weeks now but with my limited knowledge of scripting, i so far could not find a solution.
I have a found script below which brings me so far the closest to what I try to accomplish.
So i want to accomplish the following:
I have a Template.psb
inside that template i have 4 smart objects:
Smart object Layer 1: Pillowcase_L
Smart object Layer 2: Pillowcase_R
Smart object Layer 3: Front_DHB
Smart object Layer 4: Reverse_DHB
I need a script that will replace the 4 smart objects based on folder's content and save that file as a .psd file with the name of the Smart object layer 3: Front_DHB to the folder called output.
So here is a example:
I have the folder: Template
inside that folder i have the following files:
Folder 1: Pillowcase_L
Folder 2: Pillowcase_R
Folder 3: Front_DHB
Folder 4: Reverse_DHB
Folder 5: Output
Template.psd
Inside Folder 1: Pillowcase_L you have the following files:
1.jpg or .tiff or .psd
2.jpg or .tiff or .psd
3.jpg or .tiff or .psd
4.jpg or .tiff or .psd
..........
Inside Folder 1: Pillowcase_R you have the following files:
1.jpg or .tiff or .psd
2.jpg or .tiff or .psd
3.jpg or .tiff or .psd
4.jpg or .tiff or .psd
..........
Inside Folder 1: Front_DHB you have the following files:
name_1.jpg or .tiff or .psd
name_2.jpg or .tiff or .psd
name_3.jpg or .tiff or .psd
name_4.jpg or .tiff or .psd
..........
Inside Folder 1: Reverse_DHB you have the following files:
1.jpg or .tiff or .psd
2.jpg or .tiff or .psd
3.jpg or .tiff or .psd
4.jpg or .tiff or .psd
..........
Folder 5: Output
Empty for now
When i run the script the following should happen:
Smart object Layer 1: Pillowcase_L will be replaced with 1.jpg or .tiff or .psd from folder: Pillowcase_L.
Smart object Layer 2: Pillowcase_R will be replaced with 1.jpg or .tiff or .psd from folder: Pillowcase_R.
Smart object Layer 3: Front_DHB will be replaced with name_1.jpg or .tiff or .psd from folder: Front_DHB.
Smart object Layer 4: Reverse_DHB will be replaced with 1.jpg or .tiff or .psd from folder: Reverse_DHB.
The file will then be saved with it's layers intact in the folder: Output with the name: name_1.psd
This will continue till all the images are processed It is important that the files lets say "1.jpg and name_1.jpg" are processed as one 1 file.
So let's say i miss the file 1.jpg in folder Pillowcase_L it then will not process like this:
Smart object Layer 1: Pillowcase_L will be replaced with 2.jpg or .tiff or .psd from folder: Pillowcase_L.
Smart object Layer 2: Pillowcase_R will be replaced with 1.jpg or .tiff or .psd from folder: Pillowcase_R.
Smart object Layer 3: Front_DHB will be replaced with name_1.jpg or .tiff or .psd from folder: Front_DHB.
Smart object Layer 4: Reverse_DHB will be replaced with 1.jpg or .tiff or .psd from folder: Reverse_DHB.
Save
It then should say could not start the script missing the following images:
folder: Pillowcase_L:
1.jpg or tiff or PSD
4.jpg or tiff or PSD
30.jpg or tiff or PSD
folder: Pillowcase_R:
None
folder: Front_DHB:
"...."_4.jpg or tiff or PSD
"...."_35.jpg or tiff or PSD
folder: Reverse_DHB:
None
Please add the missing files to the folder's and try again.
I understand this is quite a request but if some one can help me with this it will save us a tremendous work as we have more then 5000+ to do and i am afraid we will not make the deadline T-T
Again thank you who ever you are.
Please see the script i have found so far:
// Replace SmartObject’s Content and Save as PSD
// 2017, use it at your own risk
#target photoshop
if (app.documents.length > 0) {
var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
var theName = myDocument.name.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1];
var thePath = myDocument.path;
var theLayer = myDocument.activeLayer;
// PSD Options;
psdOpts = new PhotoshopSaveOptions();
psdOpts.embedColorProfile = true;
psdOpts.alphaChannels = true;
psdOpts.layers = true;
psdOpts.spotColors = true;
// Check if layer is SmartObject;
if (theLayer.kind != "LayerKind.SMARTOBJECT") {
alert("selected layer is not a smart object")
} else {
// Select Files;
if ($.os.search(/windows/i) != -1) {
var theFiles = File.openDialog("please select files", "*.psd;*.tif;*.jpg", true)
} else {
var theFiles = File.openDialog("please select files", getFiles, true)
};
if (theFiles) {
for (var m = 0; m < theFiles.length; m++) {
// Replace SmartObject
theLayer = replaceContents(theFiles, theLayer);
var theNewName = theFiles.name.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1];
// Save JPG
myDocument.saveAs((new File(thePath + "/" + theNewName + theName + ".psd")), psdOpts, true);
}
}
}
};
// Get PSDs, TIFs and JPGs from files
function getFiles(theFile) {
if (theFile.name.match(/\.(psd|tif|jpg)$/i) != null || theFile.constructor.name == "Folder") {
return true
};
};
// Replace SmartObject Contents
function replaceContents(newFile, theSO) {
app.activeDocument.activeLayer = theSO;
// =======================================================
var idplacedLayerReplaceContents = stringIDToTypeID("placedLayerReplaceContents");
var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
var idnull = charIDToTypeID("null");
desc3.putPath(idnull, new File(newFile));
var idPgNm = charIDToTypeID("PgNm");
desc3.putInteger(idPgNm, 1);
executeAction(idplacedLayerReplaceContents, desc3, DialogModes.NO);
return app.activeDocument.activeLayer
};
