: Merge Photoshop groups each into their own single png I am looking for a script/way to automatically render all Ps groups in a project into their own single .png file (so one .png per Ps

@Ravi4787994

Photoshop’s Generator can do this. There’s two steps needed.


Rename your groups to include .png as a suffix.
Turn on File → Generate → Image Assets.


Here’s a file I have set up to generate PNGs based on groups. Note that bitmap masks or vector masks on the groups can be used to control the exported image size and cropping.



Turning on File → Generate → Image Assets creates a folder next to your PSD with all the assets.



Here’s some example documents with Generator set up for exporting, if you’d like to see it in action. Generator can do even more, using additional info in the layer or group name (for image size, exporting multiple formats etc).

Layer compositions are designed to work in the way you want to. Creating multiple versions of a design. For the same purpose Photoshop is equipped with a script for exporting those. Just go to File > scripts > layers comps to files

If you have a file where groups are used instead of layer compositions use a script for changing those to comps elevatexd.com/blog/photoshop-scripts-and-extensions-to-improve-your-workflow

I don't believe Photoshop has an automated way of exporting many different specific layer groupings (like identifying, separating, and exporting different individual "lamp" and "bench" folders as separate PNG's). Try going to the parent-most folder of "lamp", for example, right clicking the layer and selecting "quick export as PNG". This should only export the contents of that folder. Important to note that "quick export to PNG" has trouble detecting layers in extensively deep folder groupings sometimes. If you're having trouble try right clicking the folder and choosing "export as" instead then selecting PNG.
