Hi,
I’m trying to create an action that adds a watermark in the top left corner of an image. The problem is that CS3 records the "Place" (File->Place) coordinates relative to the center, rather than the top left. This, of course, breaks my action down for any image with a different size than the one for which the action was recorded.
Same goes for Free Transform: even though the actual placement is done based on the top left corner of the image (hence +5px, +5px places my image correctly), it is actually recorded as something like -1 inches, -0.9 inches).
Any advice on how to get around this would be very much appreciated.
