Layer Comps to Files + Delete hidden layers

Limey · Post by **Limey** » Wed Feb 13, 2013 9:30 pm

Hi All,
I build a lot of composites simply by turning on and off layers and as I go through the variations I make my layer comps. when done it's a simple Layer Comps To Files and everything is done. Well, I was able to get rid of the annoying prefix that usually gets added to the new file name, so that's one hurdle out of the way.

The thing I am trying to do now is to prevent all of the hidden layers going across into the new files. In other words before it saves the file it would Delete All Hidden Layers. The files it ends up saving are basically duplicates of the main template and that's a huge file. I am having to run all of the saved files through an action that deletes the hidden layers after the fact.

Below is the modified script I am using that allows the prefix to be turned off (check box) when saving layer comps to files.

Many thanks,

Limey a.k.a Paul

I think this should work...

Add this function
Code: Select allfunction deleteHiddenLayers(){
var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " ), charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" ), stringIDToTypeID( "hidden" ) );
desc.putReference( charIDToTypeID( "null" ), ref );
executeAction( charIDToTypeID( "Dlt " ), desc, DialogModes.NO );
}

Then insert a line between 188 and 189 to call the new function.

Mike, I love the fact that you didn't give me the completed script this time. I had to really think things through and figure out where to put the function (and ended up deciding it didn't really matter) but then I needed to figure out where to put the call for it. At first I just put "deleteHiddenLayers" and forgot the () so needles to say it didn't work. Then Extendscript toolkit suggested it with () so I thought what the heck! It worked

It's great! It's so fast too. Ok, so now that that's done. I remembered what I forgot to add. Ok, I know, I'm greedy ain't I?

All those darn layer comps are going over with the saved files. There's often over 100 at a time. Not sure if it would be easier to search the web (PS-Scripts) for a script to select all layer comps and delete them after saving (run it as an action) or whether it can be built into the new and improved Layer Comps TO Files script.

Any thoughts on this?

Paul

P.S You Rock!

Mike Hale · Post by **Mike Hale** » Thu Feb 14, 2013 2:33 am

Sorry, I didn't think you would have any trouble adding the function. Glad you got it working.

Add this line just before the remove hidden line you just added. Make sure it's after the doc dupe layer or you will remove them from your main document.
Code: Select allwhile(activeDocument.layerComps.length>0){activeDocument.layerComps[0].remove()};

Limey · Post by **Limey** » Thu Feb 14, 2013 7:49 am

Fantastic! Thanks Mike. I told you I am still in the learning mode but every achievement just spurs me on to learn more. I understand the principal of functions better having done this.
Please don't be sorry because It just encouraged me to figure out what to do on my own. It's very basic and simple stuff to most that post on here I'm sure but I'm still taking baby steps. I'm hoping to be running around before too long or at least walking about without holding on.
Next step is working out the code for myself and that's a steeper learning curve that where to place a function call.

This modification to Adobe's standard Comps to Files will help a lot in streamlining my work flow.

As always Mike, Thanks!

Paul

Mike Hale · Post by **Mike Hale** » Thu Feb 14, 2013 1:39 pm

To help with your next step here is how I determined how to modify the script.

Because the function I wanted to add was in the function myVariable() and didn't use any external variables I put it at the bottom. Then I did a quick scan looking for 'save' or 'export' without really following what the script was doing. When I found the lineCode: Select allsaveFile(duppedDocument, fileNameBody, exportInfo);I read up until I found the dupe line. Because the code between those two lines just create the filename used to save I knew I could put the call anywhere between those two lines to change the output without effecting the rest of the script.

Limey · Post by **Limey** » Thu Feb 14, 2013 4:08 pm

That's exactly what I did! I looked for the save and read up to the dupe. So if a function uses external variables, the placement of that function is more critical?
I ran scriptlistener on the Delete hidden files and compared what was in the log to your code to see what parts you used. Trying to reverse engineer it so to speak to see how you got what you needed and what parts were not required. Next I am going to see if I can do some very basic tasks in Photoshop, listen and convert to code. That I hope will clear things up for me.

Question: For some reason everything works fine at one moment and then other times it's giving me this error and the script won't run. Got any idea what might cause it? It has something to do with the dialog box. This was happening before the delete layer comps was added. Actually, now I can't open it at all.

Error 519: Server interface error ''
- Server interface error 'No component returned from CreateWidget'
Line: 250
-> dlgMain.add("statictext", undefined, strLabelDestination);

Here is the full code of the script as I am running it now. Does it work for you?

UPDATE: Now it's working perfectly! So for some reason there is an intermittent issue that causes the dialog box not to open and the script to fail. I wonder if it's a system thing rather than the script? Installed the script on my colleague's computer and it runs flawlessly. Perhaps it will settle down for me now I am not playing with it any more.

Thanks,

Paul

Maybe this will help with function placement...
Code: Select allfunction myFunction(){// placement doesn't matter
//do something
// optional return
}Code: Select allvar myArray = [];// needs to be before the function call
myFuntion();// needs to be after myArray is declared and set
function myFunction(){// placement doesn't matter
//do something
myArray.push(something);
// remaining code if needed
}Code: Select allvar myFunction = function(){// needs to be before the function call
// and the call needs to be after the variable declaration if used
}
var myArray = [];
myFunction();// still needs to be after the variable is set
That is way some recommend that you define all your variables at the top of the script and define your functions before you call them no matter how they are declared.

The Action Manager function I posted is just a cleaned up version of the scriptlistner log wrapped in a function. It really doesn't need to be cleaned up to work, I just like it that way. X has a script in his xtools that will do most of the work for you. It gets the last entry in the log and wraps it in a window so you you have to do to use it is copy/paste. Giving the created function a meaningful name and cleaning up is optional.

That error is from the Photoshop/ScriptUI interaction and it's not related to what the script itself is doing(other than it has a dialog). Happens to me sometimes. Shutting down Photoshop and ESTK(if running) sometimes help. Restarting the system always does for me but if it doesn't it most likely a corrupted installation.

Thanks Mike! That's a big help. Thanks for the clear explanation of function placement.
I have a few scripts that have trouble running on occasion and I find restarting Photoshop clears it up. For some reason this one was being extra difficult.

I will look for X's script that you spoke of and see what I can do with it. I think learning how things work, understanding the principles and keeping the code clean like you do ultimately will help me to make better scripts later.

Much gratitude,

Paul
