All our actions in Photoshop are related to repeated application, so today's lesson is about how to automate operations in Adobe Photoshop.
Создание операций (actions) в Фотошоп

To begin with, let's open the menu Window-ActionsОкно-операции and select the item Create new actionСоздать новое действие.

Now we perform manipulations in the program very carefully, as it will record all operations for us.

In this article, we will process a regular photo by adjusting contrast, color, light, etc.

Go to the menu File-OpenФайл-открыть and open any image. Now we set a stop - the item Insert StopВставить остановку in the Actions panel and check the box Allow ContinueРазрешить продолжение.

Let's start with the main action - adjusting levels - go to the menu Image-Adjustments-LevelsИзображение-редактирование-уровни, then another stop - Insert StopВставить остановку.

We set pauses so that we can make separate level adjustments for each subsequent photo.

Then we perform the following operations in order:

Menu Image-Adjustments-Hue/SaturationИзображение-редактирование-тон/насыщенность, stop, Image-Adjustments-Brightness/ContrastИзображение-редактирование-яркость/контраст. Now we go to the menu File-Save asФайл-сохранить как, check the box next to As a Copyкак копия and save our file to any folder (just remember where you saved the file later).

In principle, that's it, the action is ready. Now we need to test it on another image - run the action as follows:

1. Check the box next to the item Open, Levels, Hue/Saturation, Brightness/ContrastОткрыть, уровни, тон/насыщенность, яркость/контраст in our action (Toggle Dialog on/offДиалоговое окно вкл./выкл.). This will make our action stop and display the corresponding dialog box during the action.

2. Run the Action by clicking on the item Play SelectionВоспроизвести выбранное.

What should happen - let's see:
