Droplet to clear channels/paths

[Adrianr]

Hi guys,

I'm looking to create a droplet that clears excess channels and paths left in a PSD or Tiff file. Doesn't need to remove masks, just duplicate colour channels used to make masks originally, or paths. Where on earth do I start trying to achieve this?

Cheers.

First of all you'll need a script to remove both channels and paths.

Something like this:

#target photoshop
app.bringToFront();
var theImage = app.activeDocument;

theImage.pathItems.removeAll();
theImage.channels.removeAll();

(save as RemoveChannelsPaths.jsx)

Now create a new action, run the script while recording and stop the action.
Chose "File"-"Automate"-"Create Droplet" and chose your settings.
That should work :-).

Works perfectly, thank you sir!
