Red Eye Tool usage from script

Alexey · Post by **Alexey** » Fri Sep 07, 2012 4:40 pm

Greetings everyone,

I'm new with scripting. By now I managed to resolve all my problems using a combination of scripting and actions in Photoshop CS6, except one.

So my question is, is it possible to run red eye removal tool from script?

I tried to capture it through the script listener, but it captures just the selection of the tool. I also tried to convert the action with xtool into the script, but every time that I try to convert the action containing the red eye removal tool Photoshop hangs and I need to terminate it.

Thanx and cheerio

I don't think it would be possible. That tool uses a mouse drag to select the eye and that can't be scripted.

I thought that it could be done because it is doing all the job and just by one click in the red eye region without dragging.

Yes you can just click. But if scriptlistener or an action will not record that click I don't see a way you can script it.
