Re: Calculating width height in script

You do not need a new script.  All you need to do is create a PSD template adhering to my four rules. They are very simple.

 

The Four Rules:

  1. Size the photo collage templates for the print size you want - width, height and print DPI resolution.
  2. Photo collage templates must have a Photoshop background layer. The contents of this layer can be anything.
  3. Photo collage templates must have alpha channels named "Image 1", "Image 2", ... "Image n".
  4. Photo collage templates layers above the background layers must provide transparent areas to let the images that will be placed below them show through.

 

One does not simply pop out a complicated script. Look at my scripts  with a text editor there is a lot of design and programming involved.  I have no idea of what size and resolution you want your collage to have.  I also have no idea of what your images aspect ratios are.  With that knowledge it should only take a few minutes to create a template fewer the ten for sure.

 

I created a template for you latest example using its size 30" x 12" at 200DPI and the 6 different aspect ratio images. There is still some tilt in image 3 and 5.  You can download the template http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/6images.psd

 

I only used a Background layer.  I did not add and upper overlay layer however the alpha channel I created for image 6 will let some of the background show through image 6.  Here is a screen capture with the Template in Photoshop and under it a populated version. Also just copy my scripts into Photoshop folder Presets\scripts and use them from Photoshop  menu File>Scripts>My Script Selected. The extendedscript toolkit has problems with some things.
