need help with a custom action

[alexstazi Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close alexstazi]

Hi there,

I'm trying to write an action that takes one big image (lets say 1000x1000 pixels)
and cuts it into small pictures (10x10 pixels) in size. (like a chess board)
If possible, then save all the images with file names that represent their position: x#_y#.jpg (again, like a chess board).

Is there any way of automating this procedure or must i do it manually?

Any help will be appriciated!

Hi, alextazi. Welcome in!

What you want shouldn't be too difficult to do in JavaScript. Probably almost impossible to do as an action, seeing as actions don't have loops and counters to make it easier.

I'm trying to write an action that takes one big image (lets say 1000x1000 pixels) and cuts it into small pictures (10x10 pixels) in size.

That makes for about 10.000 files . Is that what you really want?
