Class SmartObjectProvider

SmartObjectProvider class

Defines the smart object provider that provides getting / setting data sources from global link resources of the PSD file and their contents.

public class SmartObjectProvider

Methods

NameDescription
ConvertToSmartObject(params int[])Converts layers to an embedded smart object.
ConvertToSmartObject(Layer[])Converts layers to an embedded smart object.

Examples

The following code demonstrates the support of updating Linked Smart objects.

[C#]
