Any way to set all layers to 100% opacity at one time?

[darthsmozers]

I work with projects that contain numerous layers. I'd like to be able to reset all layers back to 100% opacity after working with them. Any shortcuts or actions to do this? (Perhaps incorporating the select-all-layers keyboard shortcut control+alt+A?)

This will iterate though all layersets and layers and set the opacity to 100.

#target photoshop
if(documents.length){
setLayerOpacity(app.activeDocument);
}
function setLayerOpacity(obj){ 
 if(obj.artLayers.length>0){
 for(var z = 0;z<obj.artLayers.length;z++){
   activeDocument.activeLayer=obj.layers[z];
   activeDocument.activeLayer.opacity=100;
		} 
	}
 if(obj.layerSets.length > 0){ 
  for(var l=0;l<obj.layerSets.length;l++){
	activeDocument.activeLayer=obj.layerSets[l];
   activeDocument.activeLayer.opacity=100;
    setLayerOpacity(obj.layerSets[l]);
		}
	}
}

Thanks!

I'm new to trying to automate things .. where do I paste that in exactly?

[Paul MR]

The best thing to do is to paste the code into ExtendScript Toolkit this can be found..

PC: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Utilities
MAC: <hard drive>/Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities
Then save the script in..

PC: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS#\Presets\Scripts
MAC: <hard drive>/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS#/ Presets/Scripts

If Photoshop was open, close and restart Photoshop so that it can pick up the new script.
You can then run the script by File - Scripts and choose the script or create an action that calls the script.

Start you recording and from the action palette flyout choose "Insert Menu Item" now goto File - Scripts and choose the script, stop the recording.

Awesome, I'll give it a try and report back. Thanks for your help today!

Fantastic! This is really working out. Thanks!

I will create a new thread today with the next step I'm interested in solving, so I don't clutter this topic.
