Action on checklist step

Hi there
I am having some trouble with actions on certain checklist steps. For example I have a checklist, where when I complete one step a new one open. When the step open, I want the responsible person to get an email.
I have no trouble getting it to work on the Service Request level, when changing status, but on the checklist it will not work.
Does anyone have some hints, links to documentation about it or something else that could be helpfull?
Kindly Regards
Nicolai

Hi Nicolai,
did you get it work - I am currently having the same Problem when assigning an Action to a checklist step. The Action is not triggered for the respectiv step.
Thanks
Michael

By publishing this workflow, conditions and actions inside Impersonation steps will run using your credentials

In a SharePoint 2010 workflow that accesses a custom list, I am getting the following warning message before I publish the workflow to the SharePoint test server:
"By publishing this workflow, conditions, and actions inside impersonation steps will run with your credentials".
The only step in this SharePoint 2010 workflow is the impersonate step.
Thus would you tell me what I can do to have the workflow run under different credentials?

Hi,
As the warning says, any actions within Impersonation step would be carried out under your credentials if you published the workflow. If you intended to just add a Step in the workflow, then use different icon that says Step (with down arrow). Impersonation
step is used to modify the permissions on the item.
Once you have this, the workflow will be executing under the credentials of whoever starts it. Hope it helps.

Automate Action overriding export step

I have recorded a set of actions that I am automating for a few images. At the end I recorded the export and close steps (I records Save For Web - PNG 24 settings). The issue is that the script overrides each image once it's saved.
How can I run the image editing part of the script, and then insure that each file is being exported seperatly with a different name? Should I have not recorded the export part of the script?

thanks. I just tried that and it's still using the "test.jpg" name I give the recorded sample and then overwrites all automated images.
Do I need to run an image process Action and then run a Save As Action afterwards?
It looks like under File > Batch... that the files will be given a different 'starting Serial #' to differentiate.
Under my Save recorded action I have:
As: JPEG
Quality: 9
Matte: none
In: file name.test.jpg
This makes each image get replaced, how can I correct that?

Let Actions save Script steps after restart

A recent thread in the regular forum reminded me it's always a good time to repeat this request, even though repeated requests over the course of many years has yet to have an effect.

Actions; how do I find what commands don't work in actions?

[Photoshop CS4, MacOS 10.5.8]
I'm frustrated in trying to create an action make a channel into a layer.
Sounds easy, right?
I'm got hung up on several issues though, which raised a bigger question:
• In the approach I'm taking, I want to select the target channel during the action.
When I click on Channel X during recording, the action records the step as
"Select X Channel"
Unfortunately the particular channel is hardwired into this command so that would
mean making three different versions of the action. I have tried looking for a
more general form of the command, like Select Channel that then takes the
particular channel as a parameter, e.g. from a drop-down menu. That at least
would work in an action. But no such. (I tried some other ideas like using
Calculate or Channel Mixer which come close but not close enough.)
There's a more lame design: selecting the channel before recording the action, then
creating and deleting extra "internal" channels in the action -- it does work but it
isn't where I started so I lost a lot of time trying to find something that appears not
to exist.
• The lurking question here is how you find
(a) whether there even exists an actual generic form of a command
(b) whether the command works in a way that makes it possible to use in an action
Web searches don't lend themselves to finding information like "what commands
don't work in actions". I would really appreciate pointers to any in-depth documents
on what commands a user can't get at for recording in actions.

Sorry about the last post, but i knew i had recorded selecting channels by the number instead of the name.
Well i found one of my older actions which must have been recorded in an old version of photoshop that named the channels with numbers.
Anyway, see if this action helps you any. (you have to copy the steps to your action)

Any help on this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Dpka,
Yes, I do. But, still the same.
In fact, I can see two sample functions in "Invoke a Browser Script" Action. (i.e. USERSCRIPT.putUrlInFrame, USERSCRIPT.example_displayParameters).
I edit "USERSCRIPT.example_displayParameters", replace "new USERSCRIPT.parameter( 'p3', 'Enter value for Param 3' )" to "new USERSCRIPT.parameter( 'p3', 'Enter value for Param 3', 'p3 default value' )".
Still, there is no default value for "p3".
So, I wonder whether my file path is wrong. But, how can I know where is the exact path?

Problem with a Scott Kelby action. Help!

In Scott Kelby's "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Book for Digital Photographers" he describes a process to automate sharpening in Photoshop, (chapter 5, page 218). It involves creating an "Action" in Photoshop that can automatically sharpen a folder of photos without any intervention on the user's part that can be automatically run from Lightroom. I'm running on a MacBook Pro, OS 10.4.11, Lightroom 2.3, Photoshop CS2.
The problem is that the action hangs when saving a photo. When the action reaches the step to save a photo, a "JPEG Options" box opens up and waits for you to click on the "OK" button. This hardly makes the action automatic. I notice that this only happens to photos that have not been opened in Photoshop previously, (which is always in my case).
Here are the Photoshop steps described by Scott (minus any superfluous stuff):
Step 1: Open a photo.
Step 2: Go to the Window menu and choose Actions. Click on the Create New Action icon at the bottom of the palette. In the New Action dialog box name your action and click on the Record button.
Step 3: Go under the Filter menu, under Sharpen, and choose Unsharp Mask. When the Unsharp Mask dialog appears enter 120% for Amount, 1.0 for Radius, and 3 for Threshold, then click on OK.
Step 4: Now go under the Edit menu and choose Fade Unsharp Mask. This brings up the Fade dialog box. From the Mode pop-up menu choose Luminosity.
Step 5: Now you can press Command-S (PC:Ctrl-S) to save your photo, then Command-W (PC: Ctrl-W) to close your photo. Since it's been saved and closed, go back to the Actions palette and click on the square Stop Recording button at the bottom left of the palette.
The rest of the steps involve creating a Droplet to put into Lightroom but is irrelevant to my problem.
Like I said, when I run this action it hangs when saving a photo. A "JPEG Options" dialog box opens and waits for you to click on "OK" Again this only happens on photos that have not been previously opened in Photoshop.
Any hints as to what is happening and how I can fix it?

You already have a rendered file at this point, so this metadata is completely useless. Lightroom for some reason includes all develop settings in every exported file.
Here is some more info

http://www.lightroomqueen.com/blog/2009/04/17/why-cant-cs2-save-as-jpeg-when-local-adjustm ents-were-used-in-lightroom/
The last one has the metadata-wrangler plugin do basically what I told you to do by hand inside Photoshop.

Hi,
There is nothing wrong with your sequence. The reason the Post Action doesn't jump to Cleanup as you expect is because the Status of first step is "Done" not "Passed".

Interactive Report - Add a 'custom' Action Menu Item

Hi,
I'm wondering if it is possible to add 'custom' Action menu items to an interactive report?
I have a situation where I want to use all the richness that an interactive report gives with it's out of the box functionality, then if a download is selected I need to be able to set a 'lock' on the currently selected records set before the records are downloaded.
I've had a good look around the forum and various other sites and I can't seem to find anything in this area. The nearest I can find is on the OBD tutorials the ability to add a 'Reset' button.
I know how to create custom download functionality, to which I could add the required record locking functionality and in turn link to a button, but what I don't know how to do is pull out the selection variables from the Interactive Report in order to construct my select query.
Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree and there's a better way if so any suggestions would be most welcome.
Many thanks in advance Peter..

In need of CS5 Actions help

Last week I was trying to set my actions up to be in button mode and was trying to categorize them and so forth. I dont remember exactly what all I did, but I ended up really messing up my actions - here are the issues.
*Some actions that I try to play want to bring up dialog boxes(if applicable) for each step in that action - but did not do this before. Or it will stop (even when there is no stop inserted in the action) and wont continue to play.
* Actions that I created no longer work properly. For example, I created a "studio action" to play on all my images that I shoot in my studio. This action contained a step using a plug-in, and then about 3 other steps using other actions that I had purchased to use. When I would have a studio image, I could press play, it would process each step in that action without stopping, and then I could adust any un-flattened layers at the end. After my attempt at Button Mode, when I went back to having the Actions in a regular list, that action would no longer play each step. So I deleted it and tried to recreate that same action, but it wont record some steps/actions in the new action set I am trying to create.
*In trying to create a new action set, some actions/steps wont record, but previously had before trying to switch to button mode.
My computer is a pc and I have the windows 7 operating system. I am using PS CS5 and have updated it with the patch.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this has now slowed down my editing process

"When I try to record a new action set and use an action from this group, "
You don't record a new action set you create one and when you do you name it and its empty ther is nothing in it to play. Once created you can record or copy or move actions into it.
"and use an action from this group"
Use what action what is the group your writting about?
"it will not record it in the new set."
I don't under stand you record a new action by highlighting an action set then click on the new acyion icon. You name the new action and click on record or yourecord into an existing action by highlighting the step in an action you want to record steps after and clicking on the record button.
" I have deleted the action set that I had previously created (and used to work just fine) "
that is what I ask you to post not delete.
"so I am trying to create a new action set. namely the midtone lifter and magical contrast are ones I am trying to use in the new action that I am creating."
" Does that make sense? "
Yes and No. Some of what you wrote shows your lack of knowledge. When you move things adround and delete(unload loaded actoion set) things can become broken. Your not going to fix you problems without learning a bit.
Yes you can not attach files here you must upload them to a service like you send it and include a link to it in you append using the link icon.

Scripting Illustrator actions, incorporating calls to Excel

Hello all, I need some help...
I am building a series of logos — based on word strings — using Illustrator CS4 with a combination of Actions, but also retrieving the word string from an Excel file.
Normally for one or two iterations of the process, I would not hassle with a script, but this is a mind-numbing repetitive task, and I have to make 6,000 logos!! Seems the ideal use for a script.
We have tried to work with ExtendScript Toolkit (ESTK) but we can't get our heads around how to make it do certain things, and I can't find anyone who really knows how to use ESTK correctly.
I have a MAC, so the script has to be written in Java Script or Apple Script.
Here's what I need to do:
Execute Action: Open a Master Illustrator doc. This doc is already configured with art board, pre-defined type box (Area Type Optioned), Charater Styles, Drop Shadow parameters set. <pause Action>
Run Script: Retrieve the word string from a cell in Excel worksheet (or CSV??). Some are single words, first letter capped. Some are two to four words Camel Cased. Example: "DinnerPartiestm". There are two additional charaters "tm" at the end of the word string that will be acted upon (remember these two characters for item 7 below)
Run Script: Place this WordString into the predefined type box in the Illustrator Master doc. That is, in Illustrator, "select" the type box so the cursor is at first position and place the word string — copy from Excel & paste into Illustrator? <pause Script>
Execute Action: Apply character style 1— font with point size, letter spacing, stroke and colour (It just happens to be red). Example: DinnerPartiestm <pause Action>
Run Script: Select all caps in word string. Example: DinnerPartiestm <pause Script>
Execute Action: Apply character style 2 — Caps Only (selected) — New point size, baseline offset. Example: DinnerPartiestm <pause Action>
Run Script: Select last two letters of word string. Example: DinnerPartiestm <pause Script>
Execute Action: Apply character style 3 — last two letters only (selected) — New point size, change colour, baseline offset. Example: DinnerPartiestm <pause Action>
Run Script: Select text box. <pause Script>
Execute Action: Apply Stylize > Drop Shadow — On contents of text box, preset DS parameters in either Appearence panel or Effect menu.
Execute Action: File > Save As .ai document. <at Save As dialog, pause action>
Run Script: Retrieve file name from Excel and place in Save As dialog (copy & paste?). In next column in Excel doc, same row, is a SEO-friendly file name. Example: word string is "DinnerParties"; file name (next column) is "logo-dinner-parties"
Run Script: Select folder to save the .ai doc into. Example: Folder is "Logos AI". <pause Script>
Execute Action: Complete Save As. Example: in Folder "Logos AI" now we have the file "logo-dinner-parties.ai"
Execute Action [assumes that the Saved As document — logo-dinner-parties.ai — is now the active one in Illustrator]: Save for Web & Devices. Preset to PNG24/Transparent. Correct file name will NOT be in Save field. <at Save dialog, pause action>
Run Script: Repeat retrieval process to get same file name from Excel.
Run Script: Select new folder to save the .png doc into. Example: Folder is "Logos PNG". <pause Script>
Execute Action: Complete Save for Web. Example: in Folder "Logos PNG" now we have the file "logo-dinner-parties.png"
Execute Action: Close
Repeat steps 1 though 19 until all word strings processed: Script has to know to go to next word string (next row) in Excel doc.
This is a tricky one, but there's got to be a way to automate the process... otherwise I'll go crazy doing this manually!!
IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE WHO CAN HELP?
Thanking you in advance for any assistance.
All the best.

IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE WHO CAN HELP?
Depends on what you mean by "help." Are you asking someone to do the whole thing for you (would require more detail), or do you intend to do it yourself, but are stuck on something? (You say you "tried to work with ESTK" and "can't find anyone who really knows how to use ESTK correctly"; but you don't say specifically what you're struggling with in ESTK.)
...doc is already configured with art board, pre-defined type box (Area Type Optioned), Charater Styles, Drop Shadow parameters set.
Much of what can be done with any approach depends largely upon what Appearances and/or Effects are involved, and where. You imply that you want all of the "logo" to be contained in a single textFrame object. But Drop Shadow Effect cannot be applied at the character level, so it can't be included in a Character Style.
So if you don't want all the text to have the same drop shadow, you will be involving multiple textFrame objects. That will lead to the complication of having to position the two textFrames relative to each other, depending on their dimensions after the varying text is inserted.
Retrieve the word string from a cell in Excel worksheet (or CSV??)
With scripting, it would be inefficient and unnecssary to go back-and-forth to the spreadsheet to extract values one at a time. Typically, you would create an array containing the full set of values, and then iterate through the elements of the array.
Some are single words, first letter capped. Some are two to four words Camel Cased. Example: "DinnerPartiestm".
So you're going to need a sub-routine of some kind (in Javascript, a function) to find capital letters.
There are two additional charaters "tm" at the end of the word string that will be acted upon...
If this is the same in each instance, and if you are going to script this, there is no need to include it in the data. Insert the "tm" programmatically.
That is, in Illustrator, "select" the type box so the cursor is at first position and place the word string — copy from Excel & paste into Illustrator?
Using script, you don't have to select the textFrame, copy, or paste in order to insert content. You would declare a variable, assign its value (from the above-mentioned array), add the variable's value as text to textFrame's content.
Apply character style 1— font with point size, letter spacing, stroke and colour (It just happens to be red). Example: DinnerPartiestm
Here you will run into a difficulty inherent in Illustrator's poor implementation of stroked text. You can apply a Stroke at the Character level and include that Appearance in a Character Style. But Illustrator always positions such strokes in front of the fill--something you almost never want, because it "chokes" the fills, wrecking the shape of the characters. The workaround is to Add New Stroke and position that below the Characters listing in the Appearance Palette. But script provides no access to added strokes or fills and Added Strokes cannot be applied at the character level.
Select all caps in word string. Example: DinnerPartiestm
Illustrator cannot select discontiguous text strings. Again, script does not have to select objects in order to change their properties.
Apply character style 2 — Caps Only (selected) — New point size, baseline offset. Example: DinnerPartiestm
Apply character style 3 — last two letters only (selected) — New point size, change colour, baseline offset. Example: DinnerPartiestm
The applyTo method of the CharacterStyle object. Or, just set the size and baselineShift properties of the characterAttributes property of the textRange directly.
Apply Stylize > Drop Shadow — On contents of text box
Drop Shadow Effect cannot be applied to the contents (character level) of a textFrame--only to the textFrame object itself.
My very limited understanding of ESTK is that it is a scripting tool for use in Illustrator.
It's a script text editor included with the Creative Suite. You can use it to build scripts for any of the CS products (or entirely other purposes, for that matter). Or, you can choose to not use it at all. A Javascript is just a text file. Tools like ESTK add conveniences, references, etc., geared toward scripting.
So, I'm only acting on the word string....
But I am also not a coder...
Which is why I would look into simpler already-built methods before jumping into a tedious solution scripted for Illustrator. For example: Many, if not most, AI users are familiar with InDesign. InDesign provides a proper dataMerge feature that can handle ordinary tab-delimited text. It's handling of strokes on text is correct, unlike Illustrator. If you set it up accordingly, it can create all the separate pages for you.
You would:
1. Draw the fixed graphic in Illustrator.
2. Place the Illustrator graphic on InD's master page.
3. Set and style the text objects. Insert DataMerge tags.
4. Import the data and run the Merge function.
InD builds individual pages for each row of the data. You're done. Export to PDF. InD and Acrobat also have their own scripting models. Either one can handle the specific naming convention, if really needed.
Again, it depends on what exactly is "special" about the text object(s) you are manipulating with variable content. For example, if you're using an AI-specific Warp effect, you'd be back to Illustrator.
Anyway, you want a paying gig?
I do some freelance work as time permits and interest strikes, but I'm not cheap, and that's not why I frequent these forums.
Scripting your solution entirely in AI may very well be possible, but whoever does it will need to see the specific objects, styles, etc., involved to avoid unnecessary guessing and time-consuming round-tripping. Why don't you post an image and/or an AI file?

Issues with Illustrator CS5 Actions

Hello All,
I'm trying to create an illustrator action that isn't functioning properly on playback. I'm using Illustrator CS5 on a Macbook. In setting up for print production of CD's and DVD's, on what's called an OMAP; I have to copy, paste and then place the image at a specific point on the artboard. Then I repeat 143 times. I'd like to create an action that pastes and moves each of the 144 disc images to the precise x and y coordinates given. I've tried creating this action through the steps outlined below, but the result of the playback is never consistent and the images end up off the artboard. Any tips or answers are welcome.
1. Copy disc image from an existing illustrator file.
2. In the action panel of my OMAP template document I create a new action, give it a name and click Record.
3. I hit command>V to paste.
4. In the transform panel I put in the x and y coordinates
(Then repeat)
Update: I was able to create the action in Illustrator CS4 and playback works perfect. However, my client uses Illustrator CS 5 on a PC (as I use most of the time); and, the action will not play back properly in CS 5. I've updated both mine and their software to the latest version of CS 5 (illustrator 15.0.2 i believe) and this action still will not function right. I've tried re-creating the action in CS 5 with no success on playback. For a demonstration of this, please watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zo_avyQLAFw&feature=youtu.be. Any advice/solution would be appreciated.

I think I may have it solved... or perhaps just a workaround. I duplicate the x axis coordinate in the action's playback. Then rearrange the playback to: paste> x axis coordinate> y axis coordinate> x axis coordinate. This seems to be working for some odd reason. Unfortunately, this doesn't work if the x axis is simply put after the y axis: paste> y axis coordinate> x axis coordinate. The x has to be given before y, then x again: paste> x axis coordinate> y axis coordinate> x axis coordinate = desired result. This is really strange. If anyone has a better solution, please reply. I'll update the actions for my client and see if this works in it's entirety, on windows and mac, and then update this post.

Reading the output values after each step executes in LabVIEW User Interface

Hello all,
Development environment: TestStand 2010 SP1 and LabVIEW 2010 SP1
Problem: is there a way to execute the subsequent steps programatically and get the output values from each of them?
I have already extended a little bit a Full OI interface for TestStand to load up any sequence, choose some of the steps and run them step by step (something like option to Run Selected steps). What I am trying to do is to add some actions between each step and do that in User Interface (I can't modify the sequence!), so I am starting the NewExecution with some previously configured InteractiveArgsParam and set an option breakAtFirstStep to True. Afterwards I am just doing something like Step Over when debugging the sequence and this works good, but I didn't fine a way yet to read the output values from the steps...
Then, if I wait until the execution finishes I can read my Results by processing the ResultObject, but this works only after finalizing of the test sequence. Since I wanted to stop after each step, read the values, do some actions and continue to the next step I tried to register an event callback for Trace of Execution View Manager. I can see that after each executed step this event is triggered, but when I try to read a ResultObject returned in Event Data it is not filled with values (ResultList seems to be empty?). Is it a proper behaviour or maybe I am doing the readout in wrong way? (It is the same VI as for reading ResultObjects after sequence finishes and there it works fine for arrays, containers and other data types).
Like I mentioned I can't modify the Test sequences, I can't add a UImessages.
What are my options? Should the trace event returns all output values from each steps or is it just used for status checking? Or maybe there is completely different approach to that matter?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Best Regards.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for your replay, I have tried to build it in my LabView Block Diagramm, es seems like this image.
But the variable GetNumSubProperties ist always 0. Why?
PS: I need only the variable "Step.Result.PassFail" from the last step, do you know, how can I get it? I think, it is maybe easier than read all the "Result".
