Reply To: Crop Entry Space on exsisting PNG files

Not directly in the plugin. It will crop all empty pixels. You would need to create a 3 step PS action to do it. So don’t crop in the plugin itself.

Then have an action that does these steps.

1. Load the transparency to a selection (control+click on the layer icon for windows or command+click for mac to load as a selection).

2. Do A select>modify>expand in the PS menu. Expand by the number of pixels you want. Note: this won’t expand past the canvas borders if the image is already close to the border.

3. Then in the PS menu do an Image>Crop, which will crop to the selection.

Now batch this actions using the Pixnub Hot Folder plugin on the cutout images that were NOT cropped in Image Extract. Use batch option, not watch Folder option. The Hot Folder plugin is much easier and more intuitive to use than the PS batch script and will show you the progress. So no need to ever use the PS batch script for anything 🙂
