NeilMacG Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hi, I've had a bit of a search and I've found some postings about saving history with a view to re-applying that set of steps automatically. I mention that because that is NOT what I want. I would like to be able to save the descriptions of each action from the history window. The reason is that I have started a distance learning course which may eventually lead to a BA Hons Degree in Photography (http://www.oca-uk.com) One of the key requirements is that I keep a log of what I do to produce the images I present for assessment. Clearly when I am working on an image the History knows what actions I have taken since the editing session began, and because I am a bit of a lazy sort and like to use technology where I can, I'd like to be able to save off the contents of the history log to a text file. I suspect that's not possible, but no harm asking. Neil Quote The Sky is a Beautiful Place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 ScriptLab pugin not only re-applying that set of steps automatically. But you can also see all the settings in each step.

NeilMacG Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 Thanks Ash, I did have a look at ScriptLab, but I got the idea it only worked on Effects. It doesn't seem to be capable of "recording" any actions from the Adjustments, Edit or Image or Layer menus. if I've got that wrong please let me know.

Ash Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 It does work with effects and adjustments. Edit and layers = No. The only thing it doesn't do is draw for you Quote All creations Ash + Paint.NET [ Googlepage | deviantArt | Club PDN | PDN Fan ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilMacG Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 The only thing it doesn't do is draw for you Is that in the next release then? Thanks anyway. Guess I'll have to make notes like I'm supposed to. Neil Quote The Sky is a Beautiful Place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Ryan Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Pyrochild, the author of ScriptLab hinted that it might move beyond the realm of a plugin sometime soon, though I cannot say for sure. But I would love a notetaking guide for the history window with the ability to print it all out. It would be extremely helpful in writing tutorials and the like.

Pyrochild, the author of ScriptLab hinted that it might move beyond the realm of a plugin sometime soon, though I cannot say for sure.I don't recall saying "soon." If I did say that, then I was probably lying.... Sorry! Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!
