Install guide for Windows

[adamculpepper]

The instructions are written in Mac format, but the script itself does indeed work on Windows (7 is what I used to test it on), so how about some Windows love? I was able to get the script work, but some of the instructions lead to a dead end on Windows.

• For me, there wasn't a /scripts folder in C:\Users\\[USER]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Presets
• Using File > Scripts > Browse was the way I was able to get the script to run
• The script never showed up in my menu - I had to do the previous step each time, therefore, I wasn't able to make a keyboard shortcut.

Great script, thanks for sharing!

Hi @adamculpepper,

it is a fair point to add a version of Install section for Windows users.

But I have no Windows computer around. Can you help me? Can you improve current instructions for all the Win-users? Put it here and I will add it to Readme.

I'm running Windows 7 64-bit, and this is where I placed the script:

For Photoshop CC 64-bit: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC (64 Bit)\Presets\Scripts

For Photoshop CC 2014 64-bit: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Presets\Scripts

For Photoshop CC 32-bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC\Presets\Scripts

Unlike myself, many users may not have multiple versions of Photoshop on their machines.

@sereby, thanks a lot! It is very helpful.

Help me please with other differences.

How did you set up keyboard shortcut?

[iamphill]

@romashamin Key shortcuts are setup through the same menu option (At least in CS6).

I set it as alt+ctrl+p

CS6 install location is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Presets\Scripts

@iamphill thanks!

@romashamin To setup the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop CC and CC 2014, I followed your original instructions, and it worked perfectly.

[romashamin]

@sereby ok, thanks. I didn’t understand this:

I wasn't able to make a keyboard shortcut

in original @adamculpepper comment.

[adamculpepper]

@romashamin I wasn't able to create a keyboard shortcut because the script didn't stick in the menu for me. I had to search for it each time using Browse and it would only execute once. It was acting like a one-off script. Let me know if you'd like me to make you a screencast of what I'm talking about.

@romashamin I submitted a Pull Request per this issue. In reference to my problem with not being able to create a Keyboard Shortcut; it was because I was adding the script to the wrong version of Photoshop. Like @sereby, I also have many versions as well (but didn't realize it).

[romashamin]

@adamculpepper thank you, check out Install section.

Let me know if you'd like me to make you a screencast of what I'm talking about.

No, I got it :)

Looks great @romashamin, thanks! :)
