CHAPTER 3: Scripting Photoshop Working with color objects 51 // Next create a SubPathInfo object, which holds the line array // in its entireSubPath property. var lineSubPathArray = new Array() lineSubPathArray[0] = new SubPathInfo() lineSubPathArray[0].operation = ShapeOperation.SHAPEXOR lineSubPathArray[0].closed = false lineSubPathArray[0].entireSubPath = lineArray //create the path item, using add. This method takes the SubPathInfo object //and returns a PathItem object, which is added to the pathItems collection // for the document. var myPathItem = docRef.pathItems.add("A Line", lineSubPathArray); // stroke it so we can see something myPathItem.strokePath(ToolType.BRUSH) Working with color objects Your scripts can use the same range of colors that are available from the Photoshop user interface. Each color model has its own set of properties. For example, the RGB color (RGBColor/RGBColor) class contains three properties: red, blue and green. To set a color in this class, you indicate values for each of the three properties. In VBScript and JavaScript, the SolidColor class contains a property for each color model. To use this object, you first create an instance of a SolidColor object, then set appropriate color model properties for the object. Once a color model has been assigned to a SolidColor object, the SolidColor object cannot be reassigned to a different color model. The following examples demonstrate how to set a color using the CMYK color class. AS VBS set foreground color to {class:CMYK color, cyan:20.0,¬ magenta:90.0, yellow:50.0, black:50.0} 'create a solidColor array Dim solidColorRef Set solidColorRef = CreateObject("Photoshop.SolidColor") solidColorRef.CMYK.Cyan = 20 solidColorRef.CMYK.Magenta = 90 solidColorRef.CMYK.Yellow = 50 solidColorRef.CMYK.Black = 50 appRef.ForegroundColor = solidColorRef JS //create a solid color array var solidColorRef = new solidColor() solidColorRef.cmyk.cyan = 20 solidColorRef.cmyk.magenta = 90 solidColorRef.cmyk.yellow = 50 solidColorRef.cmyk.black = 50 foregroundColor = solidColorRef
