slider blur

Report · Oct 10, 2017

I have some trouble with this little script

The problem is that if I put blur at 10 and then return to 0

it does not take the blur

where is wrong?


var box = new Window('dialog', "blur");  
box.panel = box.add('panel', undefined, "Gaussian Blur"); 
box.panel.group = box.panel.add('group', undefined ); 
box.panel.group.orientation='row'; 
box.panel.group.text1 = box.panel.group.add('statictext', undefined, "radius:"); 
var slider = box.panel.group.add("slider",undefined, 0, 0, 255);
var value = box.panel.group.add('edittext', undefined, "0"); 
box.panel.group2 = box.panel.add('group', undefined ); 
box.panel.group2.orientation='row'; 
box.panel.group2.okBtn = box.panel.group2.add('button',undefined, "ok", {name:'ok'});
box.panel.group2.closeBtn = box.panel.group2.add('button',undefined, "cancel", {name:'cancel'}); 
slider.onChanging = function () {
value.text = slider.value;
var r = value.text;
blur(r);
app.refresh();
  }
value.onChanging = function () {
slider.value = value.text;
var r = slider.value;
blur(r);
app.refresh();
    }
box.panel.group2.okBtn.onClick = function(){ 
  slider.onChanging(); 
  box.close();
}
box.panel.group2.closeBtn.onClick = function(){
  box.close(); 
} 
box.center();
box.show()
function  blur(r){ 
var idGsnB = charIDToTypeID( "GsnB" );
    var desc14 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var idRds = charIDToTypeID( "Rds " );
    var idPxl = charIDToTypeID( "#Pxl" );
    desc14.putUnitDouble( idRds, idPxl, r );
executeAction( idGsnB, desc14, DialogModes.NO ); 
    }

You do not seem to have included any undo or return to a history state, so what do you expect?

Report · Oct 10, 2017

When creating a dialog that is supposed to work on an image while still being open one needs to keep in mind whether the operations have an accumulative effect and act accordingly; but also keep in mind that if the dialog gets canceled the operations may be expected to get undone.

Thanks for the answers

I tried adding historystate and improved a bit

but it is not good yet?

var box = new Window('dialog', "blur");

box.panel = box.add('panel', undefined, "Gaussian Blur");

box.panel.group = box.panel.add('group', undefined );

box.panel.group.orientation='row';

box.panel.group.text1 = box.panel.group.add('statictext', undefined, "radius:");

var slider = box.panel.group.add("slider",undefined, 0, 0, 255);

var value = box.panel.group.add('edittext', undefined, "0");

box.panel.group2 = box.panel.add('group', undefined );

box.panel.group2.orientation='row';

box.panel.group2.okBtn = box.panel.group2.add('button',undefined, "ok", {name:'ok'});

box.panel.group2.closeBtn = box.panel.group2.add('button',undefined, "cancel", {name:'cancel'});

var doc = app.activeDocument;

var lay = doc.activeLayer;

var currentStatus = doc.activeHistoryState;

slider.onChanging = function () {

doc.activeHistoryState = currentStatus;

value.text = slider.value;

var r = value.text;

blur(r);

app.refresh();

}

value.onChanging = function () {

doc.activeHistoryState = currentStatus;

slider.value = value.text;

var r = slider.value;

blur(r);

app.refresh();

}

box.panel.group2.okBtn.onClick = function(){

slider.onChanging();

box.close();

}

box.panel.group2.closeBtn.onClick = function(){

box.close();

}

box.center();

box.show()

function blur(r){

var idGsnB = charIDToTypeID( "GsnB" );

var desc14 = new ActionDescriptor();

var idRds = charIDToTypeID( "Rds " );

var idPxl = charIDToTypeID( "#Pxl" );

desc14.putUnitDouble( idRds, idPxl, r );

executeAction( idGsnB, desc14, DialogModes.NO );

}

How so?

Do you mean that you have not included a return to the history state at cancelling?

Report · Oct 12, 2017

If you catch the result of

box.show()

as a variable you can use that to determine if »OK« or »Cancel« were clicked and have the Script proceed accordingly.

According to your first code put in line 16th:

function ahS() {
    aD.activeHistoryState = (hS = (aD = activeDocument).historyStates)[hS.length - 2]
}

while between lines 17 & 18 and 35 & 36:

ahS()

It's not good for me

maybe I put your scripts wrong

can you place them in the starting script?

Report · Mar 18, 2018

box.panel.group2.closeBtn = box.panel.group2.add('button',undefined, "cancel", {name:'cancel'});
function ahS() {
     aD.activeHistoryState = (hS = (aD = activeDocument).historyStates)[hS.length - 2]
}
slider.onChanging = function () {

slider.onChanging = function () {
     ahS()
     value.text = slider.value;

box.panel.group2.closeBtn.onClick = function(){
     ahS()
     box.close();

You may also put ahS() inside value.onChanging = function()

I copied this code you just pasted and tried it in CS6 EXTENDED and CC2018 (19.1.2) - in both versions that worked very well.

I use mac with high sierra

maybe this is the problem?

I have some trouble with this little script
The problem is that if I put blur at 10 and then return to 0
it does not take the blur

That has no sense, as with your first script when I changed blur to 10 and then back to 0, then blur level was still at 10 level.

With modified by me script now when you put pointer at 10 and again at 0, then blur effect is reverted, so the blur level is 0.

I guess I know what you want but there's mistake in your question. That should be logically asked: 'it does not take the blur'

It might be because of 'high sierra' - Many people reported some bugs about at: Photoshop Family Customer Community

I tested it, there was lack of one line:

currentStatus = (doc = activeDocument).activeHistoryState;

currentStatus = (doc = activeDocument)
.activeHistoryState; var active = false
slider.onChanging = function () {
     if (active) return
     active = true
     doc.activeHistoryState = currentStatus
     value.text = slider.value
     var r = value.text
     blur(r)
     app.refresh()
     active = false
}

Edit: I didn't see you deleted it meantime, should I delete it too?

There everything does not work right. Maybe later I'll see what I can do.
