Extensive tutorial set using after effects
Wow some really good guide for the new CS3 check out the smart selection
Here something that I did ages back as a substitute for not getting python to communicate. I went ahead I did it in JavaScript.
I had been wondering how I might do a sin wave path in Photoshop – obviously I had to write some code so after a bit of experimentation this what I came up with in the end, Warning not the prettiest code in the world but it but it works.
I've use similar processes in the past of various different projects, the inking is very interesting.
Had another quick look at trying to get python to control photoshop earlier on today but the beast was having none of it. I’ve used the gencache method which seemed as if it was the route forward but no success and I cant see a way of getting it to work.
Documentation on the web is rather scarce or non existent would be a better means of describing it.
Had been playing around with trying to get ruby to interact with Photoshop with limited success. My problem at the moment is trying to get my images to save, I’ll try updating every thing to the latest version to see it that solves the issue. In the mean while I’ve started looking at JavaScript for dynamic image manipulation, the advantage of using scripting over that of the already inbuilt actions options is that conditional statements can be added this adds a vast range of control.
I must use python for more COM programming but I don't think I’m going to have the time in the coming months as I’m starting a new project in Dublin that’s going to take up quiet a lot of my time. Have a few interesting ideas using Photoshop so you’ll probably see some more scripts popping up in the coming weeks as I start investigation the possibilities of getting both applications to interaction with each other.
