Layer Group information

Post by foxpaul »

Hi all,
is it possible to access information about a psd documents layer groups, rather than individual layers only?
If i create an image list, each layer is an image magick object, but I cant find any information in the layer about which group it belongs to.

Any ideas?
best,
paul.

Add -debug coder to your command line. In addition, we associate a layer name as an image label. Type
  • identify -verbose image.psd
and look for psd:layer.x, psd:layer.y, etc. for additional layer information.

Hi,
I'm looking to access the PSD group names but the verbose command does not provide any useful info.
Can PSD group names be supported, please!
Thanks,
Mike
