How long does it take you to program a script. The way I see it is you can not program one. It has taken you days to get someone else to kindly write one for you. If you had used layer comps you could have done your work yourself. Not have to count on kindness from others or hired a programmed to program the script you need. You need to learn Photoshop better than you currently do.
Layer Comps to Files is a Script and it come with Photoshop...................... It took less then a minute to create the three layer comps and the script most likely ran as fast as the script programmed for you by SuperM. The script you could not use because you did not program the script and know how it works or what was required. The Layer group you created was not correct and you did not understand the alert message the script displayed. You had to ask for more help.
User here try to help you. We all have different abilities. You can use script other provide you should not expect that someone will be willing to program a script that will work with the next document structure you come up with and automate what you want to do.
Layer Comps is a Photoshop feature like layer, actions, filters, scripts, plug-ins etc. You should learn the Photoshop features that will help you get you work done. If you want to automate something in Photoshop learn to use actions. They are less powerful then scripts. However, you do not need to be a programmer to record and edit actions. The best action you will have are the one you create for you know how the work, you made them to do what you want to do and you know when to use them.
Script can be very powerful. If you look at a Plug-in script like Image Processor Pro you will see it contains 10,000+ lines of code that is not something you develop quickly. Layer Comps to files is over 2,500 line of code and much more flexible then the custom script SuperM programmed for you. Scripting is powerful programming a script is more work than you can handle. Scripting Photoshop is not simple and easy. Some thing can be done with little code but thay are usually very simple and specific. If you want to add anything else to you document structure the script SuperM programmed for you would need to be modified. If you use Photoshop's feature Layer Comps the Adobe script Layer Comps to Files will create the files you want.
