Hello,
I’m trying to replace a smart object’s content with another file via batchPlay.
My batchPlay command is:
[
{
_obj: "placedLayerReplaceContents",
_target: [
{
_ref: "layer",
_id: sourceLayerId }]
null: {
_path: params.ImageToken
},
_isCommand: true
}
]
Where params.ImageToken is a valid file token, and sourceLayerId is the ID of the layer that I wish to replace.
When I run this, I receive the following error message:
[{“_obj”:“error”,“message”:“my-extension: The command “Replace Contents” is not currently available.”,“result”:-25920}]
I’ve confirmed that the sourceLayerId is correct, and the token is valid.
If I remove _target and ensure that the target layer is selected within Photoshop when the action is run, it works, but that is not a workable solution in my case, and I need the extension to be able to dynamically target the correct layer without user intervention.
What am I doing wrong here?
