"create new layer without dialog"  redefine shortciut

Hello.
A want to redefine default shortcut for command "Create new layer without dialog" but i cannot find this command in shortcut preferences.
In which section of shortcut preferences, in photoshop cs6, nested this command?
Thanks.

I don't believe that is a shortcut that can be redefined per se in the shortcut editor, but you could use a script and assign a keyboard shortcut to the script.
The following script will make a new layer without the dialog.
// =======================================================
var idMk = charIDToTypeID( "Mk  " );
    var desc10 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
        var ref9 = new ActionReference();
        var idLyr = charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " );
        ref9.putClass( idLyr );
    desc10.putReference( idnull, ref9 );
executeAction( idMk, desc10, DialogModes.NO );
You can copy the above script, paste into Adobe ExtendScript Toolkit CS6 and then save the script to the cs6 Presets>Scripts folder in the photoshop cs6 program/application folder.
(you can name it whatever you want as long as the extension is .jsx)
Then when you restart photoshop cs6, it should be listed under File>Scripts and you can use the keyboard shortcut editor to assign a shortcut to the script.
What operating system are you using?

  • New Layer without dialog box on CS5.1 ???

    I'm sure this question must have been asked somewhere before now but I haven't had much finding the answer...
    In past versions I think this was do-able with something like Cmd + Opt + Shift + N but this plain ain't happening with CS 5.1 anyone got any idea how this is mapped these days? One feature that continues to annoy me with Photoshop is that this is "on by default" - a nuisance if you are working with multiple layered pieces....
    Much prefer this to be off by default and accessible through the layer palette instead...

    No, it is not solved which is why I have not marked it so and indeed which is why I asked the question.
    If you or someone who knows the actual shourtcut would be kind enough to share the correct shortcut for what I wan't to do then I will test it and be able to conferm,,, but indeed the handbags are still very much out:
    As mentioned in CS5 on the other thread it was simply sufficient to use the command key to summon up the Color picker Hud... in 5.1 however its Ctrl + Cmd + Opt even with hyperdock off... Why not makee it CMD + QWEERTMNBBVGH5478  + CMD (Right) just to see how patient or dextrous the user really is????
    Inconsistent...
    Cmd + **** + N by default brings up a New Layer with dialog.... but what brings up New Layer without? I have in any case remapped F2 to the former and I think everyone and their Uncle by now know and are used to Cmd (Ctrl) + X. C and V for clipboard operations... so repetition on the F keys is lame... Better used as Power Shortcuts imo to flip, duplicate and create new layers imo - grea,t except for this dialog box every time you summon up a new layer!....

  • How to create new view without interlinking with gantt chart or resource views

    ok clear
    one another question
       In msp how to create new view without interlinking with gantt chart or resource views

    Hi Shiv PMC--
    I splitted your question above in another thread in order not to have  a huge thread with many topics in it.
    That being said, I'm not sure to understand. A view is just a manner to display MS Project data with columns. A view can have a table with column (left part) associated with a Gantt chart. It can also just contain a table with no Gantt chart (like the task
    table) or a table with a timephased grid (resource and task usage).
    Please give us more information, maybe with a concrete example so we can help you.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to stop "Create New CSS Rule" dialog box

    Made the mistake of allowing an Apple tech talk me into an OS X "Install in place". He assured me that all application settings would remain the same as before.
    Now, when holding down the "shift" key and typing a word in all caps (in Design View), the "Create new CSS Rule" dialog box pops up and writes:
    <span style="font-size: 14px; margin-center: 1px; text-align: left; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 6px; padding-bottom: 0px; line-height: 1.3em; margin-top: 3px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><font color="#006666">TEXT</font>
    I am trying to find the setting in preferences to disable this, and since the behavior started after OS X "install in place", something must have changed. I just want to type in design view and not have to deal with Dreamweaver overriding what I'm doing.

    I am attempting to type some text in "design", not "code" view. I want the text to be caps. I hold down the shift key, type the first letter, and immediately the "New CSS Rule" dialog box pops up. I cancel, but the code...
    <span style="font-size: 14px; margin-center: 1px; text-align: left; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 6px; padding-bottom: 0px; line-height: 1.3em; margin-top: 3px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><font color="#006666">TEXT</font>
    ...is created anyway.I just want to type a word into an existing div with no changes or dialog boxes or any input from Dreamweaver. I was able to do that before, and cannot do it now. There must be some setting that I am missing in preferences.

  • When i create new layer from background the new layer then covers up the background.  It previously did not do this.

    I am a rookie.   This worked on previous pics but I apparently have clicked something I shouldn't have.  Thanks for any help.

    The problem with Actions is that as a new user, you are not going to know what steps are happening when the Action runs.  The action could be deleting the background layer, for instance.  Is the action one that came with Photoshop?  If you sourced it from somewhere else, can you give us a link? 
    There is also some ambiguity in the language you use.  Not your fault. But when you say 'create new layer from background' to me that probably means you are copying the background layer.  If that is not the case, could you give a more detailed description of the steps you are taking?
    Do you know how to upload a screen shot?  If you are using Windows 7 or 8, you can use the Snipping tool to drag across your image and layer panel. Save the image, and upload to this thread using the little camera icon.

  • Create new layer after active layer

    Using scriptlistener I can create a new layer called "newlayer" after the active layer. So far so good.
      var id197 = charIDToTypeID( "Mk  " );
      var desc49 = new ActionDescriptor();
      var id198 = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
      var ref41 = new ActionReference();
      var id199 = charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " );
      ref41.putClass( id199 );
      desc49.putReference( id198, ref41 );
      var id200 = charIDToTypeID( "Usng" );
      var desc50 = new ActionDescriptor();
      var id201 = charIDToTypeID( "Nm  " );
      desc50.putString( id201, "newlayer" );
      var id202 = charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " );
      desc49.putObject( id200, id202, desc50 );
      executeAction( id197, desc49, DialogModes.NO );
    However, without the script listener we have
      var layerRef = app.activeDocument.artLayers.add()
      layerRef.name = newlayername
      layerRef.blendMode = BlendMode.NORMAL
      // Move the new layer after the current layer
      layerRef.moveAfter(app.activeDocument.artLayers[layerIndex])
    The moveAfter command needs an index, which would mean looping though all the layers till to find the active layer (since we can't access that throughthe DOM). This seems a bit long winded to me. Or am I missing a trick here?

    Well I would just use the scriptlistener code but if you don't want to for some reason you should make a reference to the activeLayer before add the new layer. Then use that reference as the moveAfter argument. The moveAfter method needs a layer object not a layer index. You need the index only because you are trying to supply that layer object by index.
    layerRef.moveAfter(someLayerRef);
    Also ( not that it really matters ) when scripting was first added there were several methods for moving a layer, moveAfter() was one of those. Those methods were combined into one method and the old methods are no longer documented in the javascript reference. So below is the documented way to move the layer.
    layerRef.move(someLayerRef, ElementPlacement.PLACEAFTER);

  • "Refine Edge" now automatically creates new layer... why?

    For some reason, every time I use the "Refine Edge" option after making a selection, then hit "OK", Photoshop creates a new layer with a mask on it, instead of simple leaving the selection outline there and letting me decide what to do with it (which was the previous behavior).
    I've no idea if this is new default behavior or if I triggered an option somewhere that I shouldn't have.
    How do I make "Refine Edge" NOT create a new layer or anything like that?

    In the Refine Edge dialog, there is a drop-down menu allowing you to do a number of things, including making a new layer with mask. Choose something else.

  • Actions - creating new layer always gives prompt

    I'm using Ilustrator CS5 and created an action that does the following:
    Selects all and copies an object
    creates a new layer
    pastes in places on the new layer
    changes color of the selected object
    renames the layer to the name of the color that was used
    repeats so I have 21 different layers, all with different colors
    Overall, it works very well. But, every time it makes the new layer, I get a New Layer Dialog box and I have to click 'ok.'  As the action is creating 20 different layers, I'd love not to click ok for every new layer.  Not sure why this dialog is coming up as it doesn't when I record the action. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Christine

    In the Actions Palette, disable the Modal dialog checkbox on the left-hand side of the action step that creates the new layer.

  • Can't create new account without a credit card?

    I recently made a brand new Apple ID for the iCloud and because my old ID was years old and I don't even use the email address it was registered on. Registering it went fine. But now that I want to update some of my apps via the iTunes store, it says I can't verify my new account without credit card information. I don't have a credit card at this time. I do plan on getting one soon, but until then I'd like to be able to update my apps, use iTunes cards, and download free podcasts with my new account. Is it possible to get my new account up and running without credit card info?

    I think you can create an Apple ID without credit card

  • Creating new batch without introducing new recipient

    Dear Experts,
    We are working on Documaker v11.4.  We have a requirement to create a new batch without creating a new recipient.  We used the following logic in "BatchingByRecip" control group of configuration file (fsiuser.ini)
    < BatchingByRecip >
        Batch_Recip_Def        = =DAL("NEWBATCHDAL");"NEWBATCH";RCP1;
        Batch_Recip_Def        = True;"RCP1";RCP1;
    The logic worked fine in local environment, but the client environment involves "MergeWIP" rule in respective afgjob where the batching happens.  In the environment, the same logic is not working.  Could you please let us know, if the logic is linked with any other rule in "afgjob.jdt"?
    Please find the afgjob of the environment where the logic is not working as follows:
    <Base Rules>
    ;RULStandardJobProc;1;Always the first job level rule;
    ;MergeWIP;;BATCHPRINT;
    ;JobInit1;1;;
    /* Every form set in this base uses these rules. */
    <Base Form Set Rules>
    ;WIPTransactions;;BATCHPRINT,/BATCHPRINTED;
    ;GVM2GVM;2;Trigger2Wip;
    ;ResetDocSetNames;;
    ;BatchingByRecipINI;2;;
    ;UpdatePOLFile;2;;
    /* Every image in this base uses these rules. */
    <Base Image Rules>
    ;RULStandardImageProc;3;Always the first image level rule;
    /* Every field in this base uses these rules. */
    <Base Field Rules>
    ;WIPFieldProc;;

    The MergeWIP / WIPTransaction is nothing more than where the transaction comes from. In this case, it defines that the transactions come from WIP with the the specified transaction status.  You don't appear to be doing additional triggering, therefore the recipients would have already existed in the WIP transaction.
    You did not mention any messages that might be output from the system as that might help point to the cause.
    Perhaps the problem lies in the INI file where you did not copy over all the other relevant batch definitions?
    Or perhaps your batching script is referencing some GVMs or other content that you previously determined via extract file or using XML xPath and since you are loading from WIP you don't have either of those?

  • Create new layer when copying/pasting

    I'm sure we're all aware of this in Photoshop, but I've just come across a tutorial for Illustrator that assumes this also happens in this program.
    Not in mine, it doesn't!  I've had a trawl through Preferences (CS4) with no luck.  Do you have to create a new layer then paste into it?

    >>Obviously Illustrator doesn't automatically create a new layer when pasting as you get in Photshop.
    Yes, that's because a Layer in Illustrator can contain many independent objects which can be individually moved, resized and otherwise manipulated. Basically an Object in Illustrator is roughly equivalent to a Layer in Photoshop and a Layer in Illustrator is roughly equivalent to a Group (shown as a folder icon) in Photoshop. That is slightly over-simplifying but a pretty good way to understand the differences.

  • Beginners tip: create new schema without SQL command

    Hey, i know this sounds so beginner's, but can i create a new Schema in which I can create tabels and tables.. without using SQL commands, I mean from the GUI of Oracle 9i?

    When I try to create any table under the new Schema (User) i keep on getting the
    message: No Privellage on USERS namespace...this is why us old lags on so down on GUIs. Because they generate the SQL for you you will acquire no understanding of how the database really works. Honestly you would be better off reading the concepts guide and writing some raw SQL for yourself.

  • How can I stop my Calendar creating new events without me asking?

    I'm working off my MacBook Pro, and use the Calendar regularly. Recently, however, it has started to misbehave. It will pop up in the foreground, and start creating multiple new event entries. There doesn't seem to be any correlation between what I'm doing on the machine at the time, to when it pops up. Any suggestions on how to make this stop are much appreciated!

    Do you have any network Calendar accounts, such as iCloud? Are the new entries duplicates of existing ones?

  • Creating new page without linking to nav bar

    I am creating a website that will have lots of pages. How can I create a page that doesn't link to my nav bar? IE.. I have home, about myself, resources etc.. each time I make a new page and name it, it automatically lists the webpage name in my nav bar. I only want say 5 topics in my nav bar but will have well over 50 pages in my site.. How do I do this? Thanks.

    Hi,
    and welcome to the Discussion Forums.
    How can I have pages which do not display in the navigation menu?
    1. Open iWeb then select a page you don't want to display in the top navigation bar
    2. Open the Inspector and go to the 'Page' tab
    3. Uncheck the "Include page in navigation menu" box
    4.Now this page will not appear in the navigation menu but the navigation menu will still appear on that page as the "Display navigation menu" is checked (unless you uncheck that one too)
    Regards,
