How to turn off screen redraw while running scripts?

I am sure this would be the number one question on the FAQ for Photoshop scripting, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere.  I know it may be possible because this is something you can do in InDesign.  Any ideas?  Obviously I want to make Photoshop process the files faster.

If it’s just about your machine setting the Playback Options in the Actions Panel to Accelerated might suffice.
Moreover xbytor’s stdlib contains code to include this in a Script.

    How to turn off screen on Macbook Air when connected to Led monitor screen?

    The only way you can turn it off is to close the lid - so you would need an external wired or wireless keyboard and mouse/trackpad attached.

  • How to turn off screen rotation on itouch 5

    I just upgraded to a 32 bit iTouch 5 and was wanting to know how to turn off the screen rotation when I'm playing music. I have the shake to shuffle off (great feature!) but would like to turn off the screen rotation. I just find that to be annoying (to me anyway)...how do I do this on the 5?

    Pull up the Control Center and lock the screen rotation. Tap the arrowed-circled padlock on the right side to toggle

  • How do I turn off screen saver whilst running time machine backup?

    My hard drive failed today when my MacBook Pro took a tumble from the sofa.
    I have replaced it and am trying to restore from a time machine backup.
    I have to use the snow leopard installation disc that came with the machine, once I get into disk utility I can format the new drive and select restore from time machine backup.
    This all runs great until the screen saver kicks in, normally around 1% into the restore. This crashes the restore and gives me the grey screen of death, it's done it four times now.
    Is there anyway to disable the screensaver? Or will I need to install snow leopard first and then software update and then restore from backup once I can turn off the screen saver in system properties.
    I paid a lot of money for the time capsule and having these issues the first time I truly need it is disconcerting.

    Hi Mewnor,
    Is there anyway to disable the screensaver?
    This might help you if your computer is running Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.3). I can not help you if your computer is running Snow Leopard.

  • How to turn off screen without passcode lock.

    I just upgraded my wife's iPad 2 from ios 6 to 7.  It used to be when you closed the ipad cover, it would turn off the screen right away.  I would still like it to turn off the screen right away when the cover is closed (so as not to waste batteries) yet NOT require a passcode when opened again (just a slide of the arrow like it used to be).  But right now, if I turn off the lock/unlock feature, and close the lid, the screen will remain full-on until the the auto-lock timer goes into effect - which will be never if I set it to "never".
    I don't want to argue about the merits of having a passcode, I concede all your points, so there is no reason to tell me how stupid I am for not wanting to use one - but I would like to be able to have the screen go off without requiring a passcode to turn it back on.  Is this now impossible?  At the least, it should turn off the screen immediately when the cover is closed, and wait to put it in passcode lock mode until the auto-lock timer expires.
    Is there any way to do this or is this just a case of Apple imposing this security feature our own good? Thanks.

    Wow.  That was a super-fast answer.  Thanks.  I had seen that optoin and foolishly hadn't tried it because I thought typing my passcode there was just another way to put it into passcode lockdown "immediately".  Well, I said I was stupid. Thanks, it does now work the way it used to and I can still have it require the passcode after a certain timeout period.

  • How to Turn Off Screen, but NOT Auto-Lock phone?

    I have an iPhone 5S.  I have auto-lock set to 5 minutes.  I often want to shut the screen for a short period (less than 5 minutes) to conserve the battery and to put it in my pocket while making sure I don't do something on the phone.  As such, I press the sleep button at the top.  No matter how quickly I turn the phone back on (by pressing the sleep button again) it is now locked.  I find this *very* annoying.  Obviously, the "Sleep button" doesn't just put the phone to sleep, but locks it too *despite* the auto-lock setting.  Is there any way to really just "sleep" the phone withOUT turning on the lock?
    Thank you,
    Stuart

    "Sleep" and "lock" are the same thing where an iPhone is concerned. The only other option is passcode lock.
    Best of luck.

  • How to turn off "screen resolution" warning in iPhoto?

    I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on a Mac mini (Late 2012), 2.3 GHz, 4 GB memory, iPhoto version 9.5.1 (902.17). I get the "screen resolution not optimal for iPhoto" warning repetitively about once every 15 minutes as long as iPhoto is running. I have set the resolution to my preference and I don't mind seeing this warning once when I start iPhoto, but it gets annoying. How can I set iPhoto to stop doing this?

    I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on a Mac mini (Late 2012), 2.3 GHz, 4 GB memory, iPhoto version 9.5.1 (902.17). I get the "screen resolution not optimal for iPhoto" warning repetitively about once every 15 minutes as long as iPhoto is running.
    Is there a reason, why you do not update to the Yosemite compatible version iPhoto 9.6? I never get the warning, you are reporting, if the iPhoto window can fit the screen, with MacOS X 10.10.2 and iPhoto 9.6.1.

  • Turn off screen updating while a DIAdem script is executing.

    Hello,
    Does anyone know what line or lines I would add to a DIAdem script to prevent the screen from updating as the script runs?  I have tried UIAutoRefreshSet and the similar commands I found in the help file, but my screen still flickers and flashes while the code is running.  Can someone please help me?
    I am changing marker styles (removing and adding markers to all curves in a VIEW sheet) using DIAdem 11, if that helps.
    Thanks for the help.

    Hi Internati...
    Well, the other thing I would try is to use the View object property:
    View.AutoRefresh = FALSE
       (your code here)
    View.AutoRefresh = TRUE
    But you might also want to check and make sure that you don't have any VIEW events registered:
    View.Events.OnActiveSheetChanged = ""
    View.Events.OnCursorChanged = ""

  • How to turn off screen saver?

    Why does my ipone go blank after i dial a number?  Is there a screen saver option?

    You mean when you hold it up to your face to talk? It's supposed to do that so you don't press buttons with your cheek... If you are on speakerphone or headphones, the screen will dim, then blank after a short time to save battery.

    I turned off my computer while installing something and now I only get the start-up screen with the apple logo. How do I fix this?

    Reinstall OS X:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.
