droplets prompt for save always

Hi there,

i've got about 1000 images that i need to change the resolution of and i've created a droplet to reduce the size and when i was creating it i even save the image and closed it.

Now the problem is that when i try to do a batch process of all 1000 images using this droplet it prompts me to save the jpg, asking me what quality etc.. why is it still doing that? I was expecting it to just run through and process all images and just to save it.

how do i get rid of this save pop up prompt? which stops the automation.

thanks for any comments.

Did you set it to "override action open commands"?

try this

Record a File > Save as... (.jpg) command as follows: Open any test image
RECORD (to modify your existing action)
File > Save as... (.jpg)
specify any folder
Do not change the file name
Specify whatever .jpg compression setting you like

Follow this by recording File > Close

STOP recording

In the Batch dialog...
Play [set], [action]

Source: Folder Choose (\whatever)
.....x Include all subfolders
.....x Suppress color profile warnings

Destination: Save and close
.....x Override action 'save as' commands ##
