Hi,



I have created a javascript for Switch which does some checks in Photoshop and write some text to logfiles.



It works but I get the following error:



Script returned error: /tmp/SWITCH_applescript__461e7616:236:248: execution error: Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 got an error: General Photoshop error occurred. This functionality may not be available in this version of Photoshop. - Error 45: Object is invalid.Line: 198-> if(($error == null) && ($doc != null)) (8800)


I have tried several things but can't find what is causing this error. Does anyone have an idea?



Thanks,

Raymond.



----



The Switch Photoshop element has the following settings:

- Save as: Use script

- Script file: see below

- Argument 1: [Job.NameProper:Before=_]

- Arugment 2: [Job.Path]

- Arugment 3: [Job.NameProper].[Job.Extension]



Photoshop filenames are like: 11105202_S_LD.psd, 11105203_LD.psd

}

}

Your script doesn't contain line: 198 nor does it contain the line that errored: if(($error == null) && ($doc != null))



so it appears that the problem is inside of the included script layerMaskLib.9.js

I have removed the include, but still get the error referring to a line number not in the script.



Thanks,

Probably not it, but do you have the ExtendScript Toolkit installed on that machine? I know its needed for some scripting from Switch...

CC 2014 is only compatible with Switch 12 update 3. Do you have the latest update running?
