To record a path:
1 Do one of the following:
• Start recording an action.
• Select an action’s name to record a path at the end of the action.
• Select a command to record a path after the command.
2 Select an existing path from the Paths palette.
3 Choose Insert Path from the Actions palette menu.
If you record multiple Insert Path commands in a single action, each path will replace the
previous one in the target file. To add multiple paths, record a Save Path command using
the Paths palette after recording each Insert Path command.
Inserting stops
You can include stops in your action that let you perform a task that cannot be recorded
(for example, using a painting tool). Once you’ve completed the task, click the Play button
in the Actions palette to complete the task. You can insert a stop when recording an action
or after it has been recorded.
You can also display a short message when the action reaches the stop. For example, you
can remind yourself what needs to be done before continuing with the action. A Continue
button can be included in the message box. This lets you check for a certain condition in
the file (for example, a selection) and continue if nothing needs to be done.
To insert a stop:
1 Choose where to insert the stop:
• Select an action’s name to insert a stop at the end of the action.
• Select a command to insert a stop after the command.
2 Choose Insert Stop from the Actions palette menu.
3 Type the message you want to appear.
4 (Photoshop) If you want the option to continue the action without stopping, select
Allow Continue.
5 Click OK.
Setting modal controls
A modal control pauses an action so that you can specify values in a dialog box or use a
modal tool. You can only set modal controls for actions that launch dialog boxes or
activate modal tools. If you do not set a modal control, dialog boxes do not appear when
you play the action, and you cannot change the recorded values.
A modal control is indicated by a dialog box icon to the left of a command, action, or set
in the Actions palette. Actions and sets in which some, but not all, available commands are
modal display a red dialog box icon . In Photoshop, you must be in list mode—not
button mode—to set a modal control.
