Am I able to cancel save action ?

Is it possible to cancel save within "Document will save" action?

No, nor any other way.

Save action confusions

(Running CS3 on Snow Leopard)
I've been trying to streamline my photoshop workflow, and one trick
I'm doing is more batch operations--adjust the parameters in camera
RAW, open, highlight and sharpen and retouch individually, then (1) do
a batch save of fullsize jpegs, (2) resize and reframe the ones I want to
use in my desktop screensaver at 1400 x 900 pixels, then (3) a batch
save of this version to the screensaver folder. But....the batch operations, while fairly quick, have
an annoying quirk that I'd love to get around.
The save action that I have, and use at step (1), does this:
save copy of DSC_9999.NEF as jpg, high quality, to folder 'photoshop
temp', title DSC_9999 copy.jpg
The second save (step (3)) needs to be to a different folder, and with a
prefix that I want to change each time I save:
110410 desert trip DSC_9999 copy.jpg to folder 'screensaver ready'
so that it will be easy to sort by date (shot april 10th, 2011), and
project or subject (desert trip).
I have been doing (3) by using my save to jpg action (1), but by
selecting a destination folder (screensaver ready), I open up
(reverse the grayed-out) "override save as" options, so I can enter
"110410 desert trip " + "document name" + "extension".
This is easy and quick enough, but then when I want to do the next
batch, the override info stays there and screws up the save, even if I
clear the destination to "none"--I get an error message, have to cancel
the batch save, then when I ask a 2nd time for the batch operation,
the override info is gone, and the batch save action works as I expect
for (1).
Can anyone here suggest a better way to do this quickly and efficiently? I'd like to either be able to clear the previous
override info so that I don't have to go through the false start to
clear it; or create a save as jpg action that would allow me to enter a
different prefix each time I save (110410 desert trip, or 100415
Sara's Baby).
Do I need screenshots to make this question clear?

If you are talking about a few different save locations and prefixes it might be easier to Script the task(s).

Record actions bug. does not execute the dont save action even though it acknowledges in action list

i am using macbook pro running Lion
so i am trying to save a series of actions that i want applied to a batch of images. i do all the actions correctly (i've done this before in earlier version of photoshop). stop recording my actions, and open the same image to make sure the automation process works properly and i get the same image through automation that i got when building my actions. one
of the actions is cutting and pasting a portion of the image in a different location, yet during the automation it always ends up somewhere else, and not in the same place, which makes no sense. another issue is during the recording of my actions i close out of all the files b4 i stop recording and click dont save. so this should be automated, but when i run the automation it prompts me to click dont save which it shouldnt do. i cant sit at the cpu and click dont save for thousands of images. whts the point of automation if i have to actually do something. stupid program. and i can clearly see in the list of actions tht it recorded me clicking dont save yet it still prompts me every time. i really do hate cs6. i wld install my old photoshop but b/c i have lion it doesnt support it... of course.. *rolls eyes*

@conroy - one of the actions means one task in an action (see screen shot).
@noel - i am able to run my action properly when i "play selection", but when i try to run a batch of images through the "automate" function is when the issues begin to arise. at least most of the issues.
i would insert an image to show what i did, but i cant seem to get that to work (on my pc or mac... weird). i loaded it to my fbook page and u can view it by following the below link
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=750482081505&l=4d1bb044bd
you can view an image of what i did here.
so in detail what i am trying to do is:
record an action of the edits i make to a raw image so i can then run that same action on a batch of thousands of images via "automate." the specific tasks i am trying to complete during my action should be visble in the link i provided. to explain in detail what is occuring that is being recorded as an action:
1)- i press begin record
2)- I am open a raw image
3)- there is a time stamp in the image and i select and copy the time stamp from the corner of the image
4)- i then open a new document and past the time stamp into the new document
5)- i then increase the size of the pasted time stamp by about 3x by changing the resolution
6)- i then go back to original image
7)- i crop the original image to exclude the time stamp and other superflous things on the edges of the image
8)- i then rotate the original image 90 degrees CCW
9)- i then go back to the new document w/ the time stamp and select the time stamp with the marquee tool, so I can copy the time stamp to the original image
10)- i copy and paste the time stamp to the original image, i use the "move tool" and move the time stamp to the top of the original image.
11)- i then flatten the original image (i thought when this was done this is essentially combining layers, so there should be no possibility of the edited time stamp moving around as it has been flattened onto the original image)
12)- i then save the original image (that was flattened w/ the edited time stamp) as a .jpeg As part of the save process i also select the resolution.
***issue***
so i am now having an issue on this section as well. as you can see in the link i provided i have told adobe to do all this, yet now at this section it prompts me to make a decision about the resolution (i.e. press "ok").
13) -after this step i then select "close all" from the file menu which closes the original image that i just saved and prompts me if i want to save the new document i created for the time stamp i edited
14) - i select "dont save"
15) -i press stop record
16) - i then go to the folder where i saved the file i just edited in photoshop and change the name.
17) - i start the action process to see if i can replicate the manual actions i just completed through automation. i have no issues replicating this when i manually start the action, except for my issue w/ the time stamp detailed below.
***issue*****
when i do this the time stamp that i edited and pasted back into the image is not in the same place. i have only gotten it to be in the same place once, and the only thing i did differently was continually re-create the above action in the same manner. each time i recreated the action the time stamp was in a different place and one time it was finally in the place i moved it to.
18) - after checking that the action works, i then attempt to automate a batch of files
19) - i select file -> automate -> batch
20) - in batch i choose the folder with the original raw images that i now want to run the action on and also select the folder where to place the altered images
21) - in the batch menu i do not have any of the boxes checked (i.e. suppress color profile warnings, etc.)
22) - i select "ok" and the automation process starts
this is where i run into issues. originally i would get prompted @ step 14 (above) instead of the automation process just reading the task in the action that says select "dont save". somehow i do not get prompted there anymore. now i get prompted at step 12. it saves its as jpeg, but instead of completing the save process, at the resolution screen it prompts me to select "ok" instead of reading the task in the action that says select "ok"
i have created new actions for the images i collect since CS4 and CS5 and i have never run into any of the issues i have described above. i appreciate any and all help you can provide, as it currently stands i am pretty upset b/c i have wasted an entire day or productivity messing w/ what appears to be a buggy program.

SQL Developer 3.0.03 Code Editor Save Actions missing from menu

I had just gotten a new notebook and installed latest version of Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.03. Seems Auto Save settings are enabled by default. I am prompted each time I switch off from SQL Dev to another app or window to Save the SQL code I am testing. I don't want to necessarily save it each time so I have to save or cancel each time I switch windows. I checked the documentation Help menu and it directed me to the Code Editor section > Save Actions menu to adjust settings. This category does not exist (or is not visible for me) to check settings and make changes. I am Admin on machine and installer of the app so not sure if it is some security setting I am not aware of. Or is this the wrong Help documentation for this version?
This version is much different from older version I was using. Any thougts on this before I remove and re-install an older version?
Thanks,
Joe

many thanks for your reply jim. i see the settings for 'prompt for save file on close'. this is checked by default and that is fine. if i have a sql worksheet open, as soon as i switch to another window (i.e. visual studio app), i get prompted to save the file. that is the strange behavior i've been seeing with this version.
i will try to update to 3.0.04 and see if that resolves. i appreciate your help.

Javascript: Don't interact with the user - Question isn't shown but canceled the action

Hi
In m yJavascript I use a method from a third party plugin. During this method there is an alert, a question. I like to suppress this question.
I use app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT; and then the quesion isn't shown. But the method is canceled with a message like "The user canceled the action!".
Can I do something? Is there a workaround?
Thanks
Hans

Hmmm. I don't know what "never interact" does, internally, but suppose you switched off user interaction and then a script calls "document.close". The three choices in the Save confirmation dialog are "Save:Yes", "Save:No", and "Cancel". Given that, it would be the safest to have it always return "cancel"!
Since this is a 3rd party plugin, you probably can contact its manufacturor and ask for a workaround, or possibly a modification.

Feature Request? Need to be able to see save progress in fullscreen.

Absolutely loving the new background saves in PS6! It's changed a lot of my workflow for the better.
One thing I don't like, and this might be an oversight on my part, but the two save progress indicators are not visible in either fullscreen mode. And I always work in fullscreen mode.
A very common thing for me to do is to save my PSD and then immediately save as a matching tiff (after every time I complete a change). Because I can't see the save progress I see the error message about not being able to save as when the file is saving. And then I end up waiting longer than necessary before trying again.
And while I'm at it for fullscreen notes; I'd really like too see the delay when exposing pallets and tools by mousing to the screen edge removed. I don't know why it's there, but it makes me crazy. The one second clunk as it shows the little bar and then does the animated slide every time feels like a stall in my thinking. Go to the edge *and* clunk comes the bar *and* swoosh comes the panel *and* then get back to work…
I know it's a small thing, but there you go.
Thanks Adobe! A great piece of software otherwise!

This made me think as I was working:
That point where I see that error — it's one of the most common things I do with my day and I've never been able to automate it. I'd love to have an option or method that takes less steps.
The thing I usually need is a matching, flattened tiff with all my working PSD files (the "print" file).
As things currently stand I save my PSD and then do a save as, switch the file type to tiff, hit okay (usually hit rreplace), then hit "discard and save a copy" and hit okay (least number of steps I've ever come up with).
This is something I've done literally thousands of times, every day, day after day. I'd love to have it save automatically, or run an action, or something.
And I've never been able to engineer an action to handle it, the replace and filename issues just make it too unwieldy.
Sorry for getting in on this whole beta process so late, but there you go…
Thanks again!

How to save actions from exchange going directly into CS3

I posted this in the NAPP forum, but I haven't gotten a solution yet. I hope someone here can help.
I downloaded quite a few actions from Adobe exchange. When I did, I got the choice to either put them in a folder or open them in CS3. Many I just clicked to open in CS3. It was more time efficient. However, there are many of them, and I was looking specifically for a cartoon effect (which I don't use very often--special project) However, while I was looking, I found many other interesting actions. Anyway, I would like to clean up the actions area and bring up only the ones I use all the time. Generally I hit clear actions or reset actions and then I bring back in the ones I want. I'm afraid to do this because these actions are not listed in the actions folder. What will happen to them? Will they go away? There are quite a few of them, and I don't want to have to redownload them. Since they are not listed in the actions folder, how can I get them listed and make sure that I can access them again?
I have tried creating a set to move them into. That didn't work. I tried highlighting all of them to put in a set. That didn't work. If they are selected, the flyout menu save actions in grayed out. How do I get them into the action folder?
Any help would be appreciated.
There are a lot of great brushes and things in the exchange, too. That I will tackle next after I figure out what I'm doing with the actions. (With help from the forum, of course)
Thanks

Good point: One can only save one Action Set at a time.
Photoshop really doesn't care where you save .atn files. In other words the folder in which one saves Action Sets (via Save Actions... or via download from the Internet) does not have to be
\Presets\Actions
The benefit of saving .atn files in \Presets\Actions is the file names of .atn files in this folder show up at the bottom of the Actions Palette menu, facilitating easy loading into the Actions Pallete. For .atn files saved elsewhere, the Load Actions... command will do the trick.
>re: I know I physically saved them into folders, but I should be able to see them somewhere, shouldn't I?
Yes.
Try this (assuming you are using Windows XP; if Vista it will be something of this nature):
* Start > Search > For files or folders
* Type .atn in the box labeled "All or part of the file name"
* Click 'Search'
When the search is complete, you should see the .atn files you saved plus any others on your computer.
Hang in there. You'll be an action monster before you know it. :)

Will I be able to use purchased Actions & Templates w/ Creative Cloud programs?

I am considering joining the Creative Cloud as an Individual Single App plan $19.99. What I am looking for the most is the actual Photoshop program. I already have Photoshop Elements 10 and Lightroom 4. I have actions and template that I need Photoshop in order to utilize. Will I be able to use the actions and templates with the Photoshop on Creative Cloud????
From what I understand this plan Individual Single App plan $19.99 monthly allows me 1 full downloadable application and I will be able to get Photoshop this way. Am I understanding this correctly? What happens when if I decide to cancel my subscription?

You will have to ask the creators of the actions for version compatibility. Nobody can give you a blanket answer on that. Traditionally, many actions break across versions since the internal commands they trigger change, menus get rearranged and whatever. Not sure what your otehr question is supposed to mean - when you stop paying, the tools will stop working, it's as simple as that.

How to interrupt/cancel save process

Hello,
Here is the situation : A user is working on an InDesign document with the plugin I develop. He clicks on the save button. At this moment, I would like to "catch" the save action to display a OK/Cancel dialog box. A click on OK will effectively save, while a Cancel click cancels the save action.
I have seen the signal system, but it only allows to be informed when a save is being to be processed. I did not see anything about canceling the save process. Is it possible ?
Thanks a lot.

Btw, I hope I did not cause too much irritation with my choice of the word "install" in the previous posts. It was just meant to describe the step of reading and storing those class IDs in order to adopt a document.
Don't worry about it. You helped me enough. I understood the "install" word when I saw other similar threads
For people needing it, here is the corrected solution :
In your FactoryList, put REGISTER_PMINTERFACE(MyDocFileHandler,                kMyDocFileHandlerImpl)
In your ID.h, put
DECLARE_PMID(kInterfaceIDSpace,          IID_MYDOCFILEHANDLER,               ...)   // IID_MYDOCFILEHANDLER is the kDefaultIID of your doc file handler
DECLARE_PMID(kImplementationIDSpace,    kMyDocFileHandlerImpl,               ....)
In your Ext.fr, put :
Class
        kDocHandlerBoss,
        kInvalidClass,
            IID_IDOCFILEHANDLER, kMyDocFileHandlerImpl,
AddIn
        kDocBoss,
        kInvalidClass,
            IID_IORIGINDOCFILEHANDLER, kDocFileHandlerImpl,
This is the shadowing technique.
Then implement your DocFileHandler. To call the shadowed doc file handler, try this :
InterfacePtr<IDocFileHandler> originFileHandler (<UIDRef of the document>, IID_IORIGINDOCFILEHANDLER);
originFileHandler->AMethod();

Not able to cancel the indexing job in BO Explorer.

Thanks Henry. Actually Indexing server was down, So it was not getting cancelled. I restarted the Explorer services and it worked fine afterwards.
However, Could you please also let me know if there's any way in Explorer to show description of the Dimension/Measure Objects while exploring data in any information view.
I have defined the object's descriptions in my underlying universe and they are also while confirguring the information space. But I am not able to see the while exploring data.
Could you please advise on this. Thanks!!

Cancel Save Workflow option missing in R17 env

Has anyone noticed the cancel save option in WF is missing in my R17 env.
Can anyone confirm if they have it in any of their R17 env ?
Edited by: Robin7511 on Jun 15, 2010 3:32 PM

Hi Everyone,
We were a little surprised by this as well. We had built quite a few CO validations with it and at this time will probably rollback the validations until certification is complete.
The following is an excerpt taken directly from the June 2010 patch release notes:
Oracle CRM On Demand
Release 17
Patch Release Notes
1142.0.02
"Cancel Save option in Workflow exposed on record types other than Opportunity (CR 12-1XVXFX5)
The Cancel Save feature was released in 1083.0.00 for the Opportunity record type only. It was
inadvertently exposed on other record types and is not certified by Oracle CRM On Demand. If you
have already used this feature you will receive the following privilege so you can either roll back the
use of this feature (recommended) or continue usage at your own risk:
Privilege Category: Customization: Business Rules
Privilege Name: Workflow Cancel Save
Privilege Description: Prevent save operation on 'Before Modified Record Saved' workflow events.
This privilege is dependent on the Manage Data Rules - Manage Workflow Rules privilege. The
privilege allows the use of this feature on the following record types:
1. Account
2. Activity
3. Contact
4. Custom Object 1
5. Custom Object 2
6. Custom Object 4
7. Household
8. Lead
9. Revenue
10. Service Request
This feature is not supported on any other record types.
If you have used the Cancel Save feature, and have not received this privilege or the privilege is inactive, the Cancel
Save section for the above record types:
- is not visible in the workflow creation page
- is read-only in the workflow edit and detail pages
Customers who have not yet used this feature may use it on the Opportunity record type only which is not
restricted by the above privilege and is certified for all customers.
Certification of this feature for the record types listed above is currently underway and will be available in a
forthcoming release."

Not able to cancel the Excise invoice for STO process

Hi All,
In STO process, we need to cancel the excise invoice due to some business requirement. When we tried to do the same in J1IH, it is not allowing us to do the same with the error "No item information transferred into Accounting". Tried the same through J1IS with the internal Doc No. Here the error is document is complete.
Please guide how to cancel the same.

Hi,
STO has been created either through MM route or through SD-MM route.
In MM route, the process is as below,
You create PO, followed by MB1B (Transfer posting) , then followed by J1IS (Excise Invoice).
In SD-MM route the process is as below,
You create PO, followed by VL10B , then VF01, then followed by J1IIN (Excise Invoice from Factory).
Normally, when you create Excise Invoice through J1IIN, it is automatically released to Accounting.
In your case, I feel it has not yet been released to accounting and I hope, Excise Invoice has been created through J1IS.
In MM route, you need to release the Excise doc to Accounting.
In that case, you need to go for J1IV and release the same to accounting.
Find out the Internal document number from the Excise Invoice and with the reference of this Internal document number release it to Accounting through t.code J1IV.
Now, once it is released to accounting, you should be able to cancel it through J1IH or J1IS.
Please let me know if any further problem you are facing.
Regards
Pradyumna

PS CS4 save action that prevents file clobbering?

Hello:
Does anyone know of an action step or event script that will alert you to the existence of a file when using non-dialog save commands in actions?
Scenario:
Suppose I have a "Save" action that points to a specific folder, I then save an image titled XXX into a folder called IMAGES. Then either intentionally or accidentally I get a new (i.e. completely different) image called XXX that I edit and resave to IMAGES via the action. Right now, CS3 and CS4 actions with suppressed save dialogs do not alert you to the existence of a file in the target location. It just saves over it.
I am using function keys to trigger script steps since I have different routines based on image content so batching a directory is not preferred.
The ideal solution would be an "if file exists in path" step.

You will need to write a script to check if the file already exists.
Install the script listener plug-in. Record you save step and check the listener log file on your desktop.
You can then do a if ( File("fullpathtofile").exists ) { alert ('dont do that'); } else { ... do regular save here ... }
Another option would be to use a unique file name generator so you don't ever clobber a file.

Am I able to cancel save action ?
