Hi All

Total scripting noob here.

Is it technically possible to create a script that will select the background layer of all variants?

This is a pain point in my workflow

Thanks!

  Thanks Jim. Looks like I need to dive in to Applescript

  something like this:

  tell application "Capture One 22"
  set selVarCount to count of selected variants
  set selVarList to selected variants
  if selVarCount ≥ 1 then
   repeat with v from 1 to selVarCount
    set workingVariant to get (item v of selVarList)
     tell workingVariant
      set current layer to first layer
     end tell
   end repeat
  end if
  end tell

  Zdeněk, this is officially amazing. Thank you.

  Got busy for a few days, but I've just tried this out and got it mapped to crtl+B. It does exactly what I wanted.

  I'm going to share this to another post on the forum from 4 years ago where someone was asking this exact same thing
