Would someone show me how to write script please or point me in the right direction?
What Im trying to do is when I go from ps camera RAW to ps I would like to copy the layer(pc: control-J)

Thanks

Ok I shoot in Raw then when I have everything just right in PhotoShops Raw editor
I choose "open in PhotoShop"
I would like to have the Scripts Manager set up to send a "comtrol+J" so it would dup the photo or layer automatically

Right now I have it set so everytime I open a .jpg it does this for me

Does that make sens ?
Sometimes its hard to put to words..sorry

Thanks for the help

Fred,

Have you looked here? I found the tutorials to be pretty helpful. I'd try to write a script up for you, but I don't have access to a machine with Photoshop on it right now.

Pick up the latest photoshop magazine. They've got a whole article on the script events manager.

I read this article in the latest issue PS User:-).
What you want to do is fairly simple.
Create an action.
Enable scripts in event manager.
Specify that action on Open Document event.
Click Add.
Click Done.
That's it.
I just tested it, it works with CR2 files as well as with everything else.

Happy New Year!

Thanks Everyone for the help

I have tried the very same thing you described and it don't work for me
It does work when I open a .jpg file but not a .CR2 file
This should be very easy...I must be missing something

My action that I created is nothing more then the keystrokes (control+J)

Also I did read the article in psuser mag

Thanks
Fred
