Adobe Bridge Scripts
Avice
I have several scripts that work in Photoshop, but in some situations they get files from the bridge (via BridgeTalk ()). Everything works fine, but I would like to make it possible to call my script not only from Photoshop, but also from the Bridge menu (taking into account that the script has #target photoshop and located in the folder with Photoshop presets).
I'm not sure of an easy way to do that. I used to have a PS script that I could run from PS or Bridge. I've never had a lot of luck with Bridge talk, so my script didn't have it. What i did so was edit the main startup script for PS: photoshop.jsx. now i think they have the year in the name. This worked well, but i had to re-edit it every time a new major update to PS came out. What i did was basically copy part of that script that initiated another PS script like image processor, and just plugged in my info for my script.
not necessary to modify photoshop.js - just place the script that initializes the launch in \ Common Files \ Adobe \ Startup Scripts CC \ Adobe Photoshop \
There are no problems with manual copying, however, I wanted to automatically add the script to the menu - there are problems with access rights (the folder is writable only for administrators)
I made a test script and quite successfully created a menu item that calls the main script with the parameters I need. In this part I have no questions. The main problem at the moment is how to register this script so that it automatically fits into the bridge menu (and is always there). I found only ready-made examples when the script is already registered and placed by Startup Scripts, but I did not find how to make this placement
I just originally planned that the main script itself would generate jsx to add to the bridge menu and write it to the startup scripts folder, however, it encountered restrictions on access rights. It turns out that it is difficult to refuse to manually copy the script launch module by the user. I took this situation into account and in case of access error to the folder, I will offer the user to transfer jsx independently.
I have hundreds of images in a folder in bridge. I have tagged them alternatively by colour. The first bunch as Yellow, the second as Blue the third as Yellow again and so forth. I want to copy each bunch in separate folders and rename the folder to the name of the first file in the folder. Is there a script that can automate this process?
so basically you can run this script on any adobe cc product as far as I'm concerned but you don't even need it at all. just install ExendScript Toolkit from here, paste below code in estk and just click on that green play icon and it should work too if you don't have PS AI etc. but if you have photoshop then you can just save below code as "Anyname.jsx" and later from "File-Scripts-Browse" you can run the script too.
So main prerequisite are as following : Make sure you have only "png" files in your folder! and I assume your PNG sequence starts from 1200_00 (1st file must be 0 numbered else script won't work as you want! because it's just basic and needs much improvements)
Okay once you run the script you'll have to select the folder in which you have those images; and then once folder is selected then it will be asked to enter prefix (1200_) in your case; and then you can simply enter the file numbers like (5 and new folder will created with 5 images etc.) watch gif for more details :D
Welcome to our comprehensive guide on exporting Adobe Bridge metadata to CSV format. In the digital asset management process, organizing and accessing metadata is paramount for efficiency and workflow optimization. By exporting metadata to a CSV file, users unlock the potential for enhanced data manipulation and integration within spreadsheet applications like Excel, facilitating batch processing, analysis, and reporting. On this page, we'll explore the intricacies of what Adobe Bridge metadata encompasses, provide a step-by-step tutorial on exporting this valuable data into a CSV file, delve into practical use cases for leveraging exported metadata, introduce an alternative approach to CSV exports for Adobe Bridge metadata with Sourcetable, and address common questions related to this process. Our aim is to equip you with the knowledge to streamline your digital asset management tasks effectively.
Adobe Bridge metadata refers to the standardized information about a file that is managed through the Adobe Bridge software tool. This set of data includes critical details such as the author name, resolution, color space, copyright, and keywords which are crucial for organizing, searching, and tracking media files effectively. Built on the XMP standard, Adobe Bridge metadata is an integral component of the service that Adobe Bridge provides to users.
The metadata handled by Adobe Bridge is employed in two main ways: through the Metadata panel and the File Info dialog box. The Metadata panel is designed for viewing and editing metadata, while the File Info dialog box allows users to add metadata directly to their files. Adobe Bridge's capability to read and write changes made in Camera Raw and Lightroom, as well as its automatic detection of new metadata, exemplifies its efficiency in managing metadata across different Adobe applications.
To export metadata from Adobe Bridge to a CSV file, you can utilize the Folder List Export script created by Lumigraphics. This script is freely available as part of the Utility Script Pack. After installing the script, it allows you to export metadata from a list of files residing in a folder or subfolder, a selection of files, or files along with their file paths. The script can be set up either through Bridge Preferences or at runtime, depending on your requirements.
In the Utility Script Pack, a user-friendly version of the Folder List Export script is provided, which enables you to choose and configure the categories of metadata to be included in the export. This customization feature ensures that you can tailor the exported data to meet your specific needs, whether you're looking to output to a CSV, Excel, or text file format.
Although Adobe Bridge does not natively support the export of selected files' metadata to a CSV file, the Folder List Export script bridges this gap. You can select multiple files within Adobe Bridge and use the script to generate a tab-delimited text file that includes the desired metadata. This text file can then be imported into spreadsheet software and saved as a CSV file.
Experience the seamless integration of Adobe Bridge metadata directly into your spreadsheets with Sourcetable, eliminating the need for cumbersome CSV exports. Sourcetable's advanced synchronization capabilities allow you to effortlessly import live data from a myriad of applications and databases, including Adobe Bridge, directly into a dynamic and user-friendly spreadsheet environment.

Adobe recommends using the modern and extensible data capture Core Componentsfor creating new Adaptive Formsor adding Adaptive Forms to AEM Sites pages. These components represent a significant advancement in Adaptive Forms creation, ensuring impressive user experiences. This article describes older approach to author Adaptive Forms using foundation components.
Adaptive forms provide optimized and simplified form filling experience for end users with dynamic scripting capabilities. It lets you write expressions to add various behaviors such as dynamic show/hide fields and panels. It also lets you add calculated fields, make fields read-only, add validation logic, and many more. The dynamic behavior is based on the user input or prefilled data.
JavaScript is the expression language of adaptive forms. All the expressions are valid JavaScript expressions and use adaptive forms scripting model APIs. These expressions return values of certain types. For the complete list of adaptive forms classes, events, objects, and public APIs, see JavaScript Library API reference for adaptive forms.
Repeating panels are instances of a panel that are added or removed dynamically, using scripting API or pre-populated data. For detailed information about using repeating panel, see creating forms with repeatable sections.
Adaptive forms provide a few special functions to simplify computation for repeatable panels such as sum, count, min, max, filter, and many more. For the complete list of functions, see JavaScript Library API reference for adaptive forms
In adaptive forms, you can write expressions to add behaviors such as dynamic show/hide fields and panels. You can also write expressions to add calculated fields, make fields read-only, validation logic, and many more. Adaptive forms support following expressions:
