Photoshop :: Resizing Jpegs With Actions
May 16, 2006Does anyone know if it is possible in Photoshop to resize down a heap of jpegs using actions... The catch is I need to get Photoshop to identify the width of the jpegs first, so it doesn't touch any already under 640. And also the jpeg compression dialog box keeps popping up whenever there is a change in the compression ratio... Any way to supress that?

View 2 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Actions Stopped Working After Downloading More Actions
Aug 31, 2004I downloaded a couple of actions from the web to my actions palette and they worked fine, but then I got greedy and downloaded a few more and that’s when things went south. Now none of the actions work - by not working I mean when I mouse over the Play Selection icon at the bottom of the action palette I get that little circle with a line through it. This happens with the PS default actions as well (I also get the circle on the Stop Playing/Recording and Begin Recording icons).
Somewhere in the following is probably what messed things up.
I downloaded actions to my computer in zip files. Copied them over to the actions folder (or somewhere) and unzipped them. I went back to the actions palette and hit “load actions” and loaded them. On the second set of actions that I downloaded I remember thinking “why am I copying and pasting these files - I bet I should cut and paste them, so I did and that may have been the start of the great crumble of 2004. PhotoShop help says: (under Saving and loading actions) “Actions are automatically saved the the Actions Palette folder in PS7.0 Settings folder. If this file is lost or removed, the actions you created are lost”.
I have searched for the settings folder and couldn’t find it, but the actions still show up on the actions palette - they just don’t run.
I’m a little fuzzy on the details on the above steps. In fact, I probably did something different on each download.
one more thing, I reloaded PhotoShop, but still nothing.
Photoshop :: Resizing Images With Resizing Tool
Dec 12, 2012I need to be able to re-size images that are large than 1MB in order to put them on our MLS site.
My previous computer had 2 arrow icons on the desktop.
One was for re-sizing horizontal pics and the other for re-sizing vertical pics.
I could simply drag/drop the image file onto these re-sizing icons and they would be re-sized.
The smaller file size thumbnail would appear on the desktop.
How can I get these re-sizing tools on my new computer's desktop?
I am using CS6.
Photoshop :: How To View All Actions In Actions Panel
Nov 24, 2013My computer crashed and I removed all apps and reinstalled so now none of my actions appear. However I do have a backup file of all of them and want to reinstall but before when I was using cs6 ( Im assuming same thing as CC as it was all on the subscription plan ) I would click actions then the right arrows and it would bring me a big screen of all the actions ( even the ones that were just preloaded in ps ) and it was a big box with all the actions and some options to record etc...Now that box isn't there and it's just a single column drop down menu.

Nov 17, 2006I like to put my actions somewhere special on my hardrive, not in apps folder.
Now, in past, when I saved actions CS2 would "remember" where this folder was, making real easy to save.
Lately, it keep defaulting to save as in the app folder-- even though I did navigate to my special area on last save as.

Sep 1, 2004I am doing an animated theme for my girlfriend`s new handset. I have imported a small clip using imageready. The problem I now have is that I only want to use a certain (smaller) part of the picture. I can do this using the select option in every single frame, but isn`t there a way to select the part directly in the gif so that the selection is made in every frame??

Aug 19, 2003I designed a form in photoshop for somebody. I chose A4 size for the canvas from the preset sizes, but the problem is that I need to send it to the other person to print (I don't have a printer and they don't have photoshop).
I thought I'd save it as an image and send it to them to print out, but the image is huge (image->image size shows the document size as 21*29.7 cm but the pixel dimensions as 2480*3508 px).
My only choices (in the dropdown box), for changing the image size requires me to use either pixels or percent.
I'm a bit confused as to why A4 size isn't A4 when you convert it to an image. Please could someone give me some pointers as to how I can change my PSD to an image that is A4 size,

Feb 19, 2013I am currently trying to find a faster way to create the images I use for our website at work. We sell phone cases with lots of different printed designs on but all of the actual surrounds of the cases are the same, either in Black or White.
I have created a Black and a White template and kept the front, back and side shots of the phone case on separate layers so they can later be manipulated as needed. I have all of the 'design inserts' saved as separate files which then need to be pasted into the templates (in between certain layers) and saved (one for each case colour).
I am wondering if there is an action or a way in Photoshop that I can set it to import the design into the template, then save the design, then import the next design and save, and so on and so forth? As we have well over a hundred designs and creating the images manually can take a very long time.
I have attached images of a template, a design and how I need it to look after.
Photoshop :: CS3 Actions To CS4?

Aug 19, 2009I have created an action to prepare images for web posting. The action resizes images, sharpens them, adds a frame writes into the frame my contact details and lastly adds the name of the subject (location, or person's name) and then outputs the image to the correct folder. Typically I run the batch on a folder of say 30-40 images at a time.... sometimes upto 100. All run from either bridge or as a droplet via Lightroom. The action works great... except that each batch I run it on the "subject name" I need to insert is different. Is there any way at all to get the action to prompt me for just that bit of information. I've tried checking/ticking the dialog on/off option for the text field in the actions pallet and that works, but... when I'm applying the action to a batch of images it asks for the text EVERY time and doesn't remember what I typed in last time. At the moment, the solution I have is to open one image that I want to run the batch on. Make a copy of the action and enable a stop before the text prompt... run the script to that point. Then run/edit the text line, remove/disable the stop. If necessary create a new droplet. I can then go over to bridge or Lightroom and process the images using the new action. Ideally the what I would like to hapen when I'm running an action like this is when processing the FIRST image in the batch for PS to ask me what text I want and then use that same text on all the other 30 or 40 images.

Jun 22, 2007i have about 100 photo cds with 80 to 100 images on each...i have copied each one to a dedicated external drive for storage and access...i would like to convert each cd (folder) to 16 base at 300dpi
to access an image now for photoshop, i have to process each image through graphic converter...
what is the "action" required to to batch convert these folders (retaining the cd number as well as image number: i.e., PCD245_001, PCD245_002, etc)...? presently, the images are tagged: IMG0001.PCD, IMG0002.PCD, etc.

Jun 7, 2006trying to create an action which moves a particular item to a certain place every time, and then resizes. This place must be absolute, as I need it to be the same on a variety of images. The problem is whenever I try to use the move command, it uses a relative position. Is there anyway I can tell an object to move to the same place every time?

Mar 17, 2004I use Photoshop 7 on a laptop with 900 mghz and 128 ram. Using actions along with batch processing my goal is to open a folder, and, in no particular order, apply the crop tool, levels, curves, and save for web.
Problem is I can't individually apply curves, crop, levels or save for web without batch processing coming to a stop. All files don't require generic applications. When contructing action I've inserted a stop with and without the "allow continue" option and still the batch processing stopped.
Is this manipulation of the action command not combatible with the batch processing command? Do I need to break action into several actions?
Photoshop :: PS CS Actions
Jun 23, 2005I have just discovered 'actions' in CS and started to use them to place a frame around some pics BUT one of the actions 'Recessed Frame' has me beaten & confused.
When I play the action I recieve the following messages:-
The command duplicate is not currently available. (and the others saying that others are not currently available) 'set, delete, set (again)' then the message 'warning no pixels were selected' and again currently not available, 'delete, channel frame edge' and at the end of all this I have a totally black picture area.

Mar 12, 2005Is it possible for someone to give me the short run down on how to do the following with an action? It doesn't have to be batch-applied to a bunch of files. I'd just manually apply it to the files I wanted.
1. Converts from INDEXED to RGB Mode
2. Creates a new HUE/SATURATION adjustment layer with a setting that would turn the file from say, red to blue
3. Save the file in the same format the original was (preserving transparency) and naming the file in the following manner:
original file : top_left_red.gif
new file name : top_left_blue.gif
I could then either modify this action or create a new one that could do the same but apply an orange/green/purple/teal HUE/SAT adjustment and naming convention instead. This would save me a great deal of work and time.

Photoshop :: CS6 - Resizing Text Box
Jun 13, 2013For years I was using an older version of PS. I am new to CS6 Photoshop. I cannot figure out how to resize a text box. When I chose the box with the text tool, the borders of the box do not show up. To see the border I must hold down the option + command keys. I cannot change the size of the box without scaling the type.
Â
Also, when I click the box with the move tool, I cannot see the border of the text box. I cannot even copy the text box.
