incremental saveing

[wwwwoody]

this is right code - incremental saveing for photoshop CS2/CS3

#target photoshop

app.bringToFront();


function autosave() {
if (app.documents.length == 0 || !app.activeDocument) {

alert("Není otevřen žádný dokument.");
return;

} else {

var doc = app.activeDocument;

try {
doc.fullName;
} catch(e) {
alert("Dokument není ještě uložen. Použij File / Save as... k uložení dokumentu.");
return;
}
// --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
var filename = app.activeDocument.fullName.toString();
var number = filename.split("_");
var extension = filename.split(".");
var newfilename = "";

for (i=0; i<(number.length - 1); i++) {
newfilename += number[i];
}

if (parseInt(number[number.length - 1]) < 9) {
newfilename += "_0" + (parseInt(number[number.length - 1]) + 1) + "." + extension[extension.length - 1];
} else {
newfilename += "_" + (parseInt(number[number.length - 1]) + 1) + "." + extension[extension.length - 1];
}
// --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

var newfile = new File(newfilename);
doc.saveAs(newfile);

}
}


autosave();

can that code work for CS too?

[wwwwoody]

no, it isnt work on ps CS. this script is for CS2/CS3 only, but i try type a script for ps7 and CS too.

[berniebernie]

just remove app.bringToFront() and it should work with CS

btw use the 'code' or 'php' tags on the forum for the ease of the eyes:


function autosave() {
if (app.documents.length == 0 || !app.activeDocument) {

alert("Není otevřen žádný dokument.");
return;

} else {

var doc = app.activeDocument;

try {
doc.fullName;
} catch(e) {
alert("Dokument není ještě uložen. Použij File / Save as... k uložení dokumentu.");
return;
}
// --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
var filename = app.activeDocument.fullName.toString();
var number = filename.split("_");
var extension = filename.split(".");
var newfilename = "";

for (i=0; i<(number.length - 1); i++) {
newfilename += number[i];
}

if (parseInt(number[number.length - 1]) < 9) {
newfilename += "_0" + (parseInt(number[number.length - 1]) + 1) + "." + extension[extension.length - 1];
} else {
newfilename += "_" + (parseInt(number[number.length - 1]) + 1) + "." + extension[extension.length - 1];
}
// --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

var newfile = new File(newfilename);
doc.saveAs(newfile);

}
}


autosave();

i tested this script in CS (i remove app.bringToFront()), but doesnt work correctly

[berniebernie]

works perfectly on my machine

if your doc doesn't have _# or _## (underscore + digits) it just saves as _NaN though (not a number...) but i believe it behaves the same way in Cs2+

i know, i debug this problem. i think up timer for this script and i create interface for pack of tools for ps. and i localize these tools to some languages :-) i want to create silent mode for this tool too etc.

i want to create incremental autobackup for ps :-)

thx for interest :-)

I love scripting as well, make sure you visit www.ps-scripts.com/bb/ for great script authors and if you really want to push your scripts forward (and why not make plug-ins to integrate it better to PS), try to get your hands on a Photoshop Source Development Kit (SDK) which you can register for (free) over at the Adobe website

this is last version of incremental saveing script for ps cs2/cs3. in pas script cant create timer for autobackup, but i work on set of interesting tools for ps. who have interest for autobackup plugin and who have some ideas, pls write me :)

I'd be interested !

I've been working with VBscript to do it but it's not really the best way (the script is launched externally) but it does work the way I need it to.
