Title: Focus magic plugin for Photoshop - Batch actions?
Post by: kers on February 26, 2020, 09:18:34 am: I recently started working with Focus Magic within Photoshop.

Does somebody know there is away to use the plugin automaticaly in Batch actions?

It would make my life a lot easier...

Can you not just record an Action using Focus Magic and then use Photoshop > Automate > Batch > Play > *some custom action*?
No it always stop with the focus magic display to choose the strength...
so no coffeebreak

(Command-F ( repeat the last filter) works but after several times photoshop crashes. )

I understand there is a stand alone program for windows... does that allow batch actions?

I use the Windows version.

The freestanding application does not seem to offer any built in batch options.

The program works well but is should be updated with batch action support and multi processor support...
Would make it so much more user friendly.

I am on High Sierra. it works , but if i recall it ( command+F on a mac) as the latest used filter it may crash photoshop.
