Hi
Something very weird...
I just found now that if Photoshop is closed, then the do script
function is listed. Is that normal?
In fact my wish is to do a loop in Filemaker that does at each cycle :
- launch a file that opens in Photoshop
- ask Photoshop to run an action (that creates 4 sub-files from the
file opened)
My problem is that the operation in Photoshop takes about 5-10 sec,
and I would like Photoshop to stay the upfront application until it
finishes to execute the action, and then only returns to FMP that
will launch the next file and so and so...
How do I tell PS6 to stay front and not return to FMP while it is busy?
*******
I am now on Mac OS 9.2.2 & Photoshop 6.0.1.
I have an old script -- that I made for PS5.5, that is simply doing this:
tell application "Photoshop 5.5"
activate
do script "CreateThumbnail600H"
end tell
It works fine (it is called from File maker 5).
However, when I open the script with ScriptEditor or Smile, it contains
this:
tell application "Photoshop 6.0.1"
+event miscdosc; "CreateJPG600H+Thumb150"
end tell
but it works.
What is even more weird is that when I open Photoshop 6 dictionary, I
don't see at all the function "do script".
Can someone explain me what is happening and how to fix the problem?
Please email me directly. Thanks in advance.
