Setting playback options (Photoshop)


    Sometimes a long, complicated action does not play properly, but it is difficult to tell where the problem occurs. The Playback Options command gives you three speeds at which to play actions, so that you can watch each command as it is carried out.

    When working with actions that contain audio annotations, you can specify whether or not the action will pause for audio annotations. This ensures that each audio annotation completes playing before the next step in the action is initiated.

To specify how fast actions should play:

  1. Choose Playback Options from the Actions palette menu.
  2. Specify a speed:
    • Accelerated to play the action at normal speed (the default).
    • Step by Step to complete each command and redraw the image before going on to the next command in the action.
    • Pause For to enter the amount of time Photoshop should pause between carrying out each command in the action.
  3. Select Pause For Audio Annotation to ensure that each audio annotation in an action completes playback before the next step in the action is initiated. Deselect this option if you want an action to continue while an audio annotation is playing.
  4. Click OK.
