How do I copy/duplicate a photoshop layer from one document to another document using AppleScript?

Most likely I don't have the syntax correct. My task is to copy a layer in an existing Photoshop CC document (with a button, for example) to a new photoshop document. Just a simple working example should get me going on the right track. Do I use "duplicate" or copy? Thank you.

Thank you so much for your reply Peter
I have no idea what those brackets meant, I've followed your recommendation and my problem is fixed now.
Kind regards
Mariano

  • How do I copy effects (crop, movement, etc) from one clip to another?

    I have adjusted one clip of footage  in my "timeline" to be a certain size, etc and I want to apply those same effects to a bunch of clips in the timeline. How do I do that? One use to just copy the clip and paste properties but I can't find how to do that in FCPX.
    Thanks for any help

    Thot I'd pop back over here after happening upon the Cmd-Opt-C keystroke which is defined in FCPX Help as "copy selected effects".
    This implies that instead of the old way (Copy with Cmd-C, then select attributes with the Paste Attributes (Opt-V) command), one makes the effects choices up front -- using cmd-opt-C, and then pastes them using the Cmd-Opt-V keystroke.
    However, I see no difference between using Cmd-C and using Cmd-Opt-C.  The Cmd-Opt-V keystroke still ends up pasting all attributes/effects.
    Guess I'll go bring this to their attention.

  • How do I move a layer from one photo to another photo

    I am trying to move the sunset from one photo into another photo.

    You can also duplicate layer from one document to another in this way: right/Cmd + click on layer and choose: Duplicate Layer. In Duplicate Layer dialog from Document drop-down list choose name of the document to which you want to send duplicated layer. Duplicated layer will be inserted above currently selected layer (group) in document to which you are sending (duplicating) it. You can use same technique for multiple layers or group.

  • How to copy a physical Alias table from one rpd to another

    Hi
    I am copy pasting the physical tables from one rpd to another. I first copied the physical table and then tried to copy the alias table i get the message ' Unknown Error' when i click ok it says
    'Failed to copy from clip board"

    Identify the "class=MyStyle" string in the MTML code, and use the Multi-File Find and Replace feature to step through each topic and change the specific instances to "class=MyOtherStyle." (I doubt that you'll want to "Replace All".)
    Sorry, there's no silver bullet!
    Good luck,

  • How do I export or transfer my iTunes from one laptop to another?

    I'm switching from one laptop to another (both using WIN 7), and I'm having difficulty.  It might be that my iTunes folder is incorrect or in the wrong place.  I tried copying my iTunes folder from a folder in My Music.  This folder also had a list of folders that seem to be album names.  In alphabetical order, one of these folders is named "iTunes".  That folder has files like "iTunes Library.itl", several temp files, iTunes Library Extras.itdb  and iTunes Library Genius.itdb.  It also has folders called "Album artwork" and "iTunes Media".  I tried copying over this iTunes  folder, but nothing showed up in iTunes.  This would be easy if I were allowed to synch from my iPod to iTunes, but I've heard that's not allowed.  Any help, especially step-by-step assistance, would be greatly appreciated.

    Migrate an iTunes library from one computer to another
    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entireiTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one, with ratings, play counts, playlists etc. preserved. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd normally recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library and unlike copying with Windows Explorer the process can be resumed if it is interrupted and it will continue to the next item if there are any read/access errors.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See Make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • How can I move the ODI Work Repository from one server to another server?

    How can I move the ODI Work Repository from one server to another server?

    Hi,
    If you would like to move your source models, target models and project contents from Work repository 1 to another work repository.
    I.e. Dev. server to Prod Server.
    1. Firstly, replicate the master repository connections i.e. with same naming conventions manually
    2. Go to Dev. Server work repository -> File Tab -> Click on Export work repository (save it in a folder)
    3. After exporting, you can view the xml files in the folders.
    4. Now, Open the Prod. server and make sure you already replicated mas. rep. details.
    5. Now, right click on model and import source model in synonym mode insert_update (select source model from the folder where your xml file located)
    6. Similarily, import again target then Project.
    Now, check. It should work.
    Thank you.

    How do I transfer an Itunes gift card from one account to another ? I do not remember my password or know my security questions.

    You can't do it yourself. If you've just redeemed it and not spent any of it then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can move it the other account : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
