This repo contains the source for two extension panels for Photoshop, Generator Configuration and Generator Layer Names. Both of these panels are implemented using the new CEP5 Extension Framework, and require Photoshop CC 2015 to run.
The Generator Configuration panel lets you easily change the configuration options for the Generator Assets plugin that ships with Photoshop.
The Generator Layer Names panel lets you easily change the suffix, scale, size and folder parameters of the selected layers in Photoshop. This is an easy way to update existing Photoshop design files to take advantage of Generator to export assets.
NOTE The CEP extension framework these panels run under is no longer supported on M1 Macs or Window ARM versions of Photoshop. In order to access these plugins, you will need to run the x86 version of Photoshop (e.g., via Rosetta on the Mac).
The release version of the Generator Configuration panel is available directly for free from the Adobe Add-ons site. The Generator Layer Names panel is also now available from the Add-ons site as well.
Full source code is provided for both panels. At the top level, a Python script, installPanels.py provides tools for installing, testing and packaging the panels. Windows users will need to install Python 3. Packaging the panels into signed .zip files requires installing the ZXPSignCmd command-line tool. This is found on the Extension Builder Toolkit download page, near the bottom under the "Download CC Extensions for Signing" links.
The simplest way to start using the panels from the source code is to run:
installPanels.py
installPanels.py -d on
to run the panels in debug mode. Turning on debug mode allows unsigned panels to run. After you re-launch Photoshop, the panels should appear in the Windows > Extensions menu.
These panels were implemented with CEP, which is now deprecated for extending Adobe Creative Cloud applications. This framework no longer operates on M1 or ARM versions of Photoshop. If you're interested in creating extensions for Adobe CC products, please look at the documentation for UXP. This is the recommended extension framework for Photoshop v22 and beyond.
