  Combining texture parts to 1 image

  Posted by Brecht Debackere on February 14, 2008 at 9:23 pm

  Hello!

  Is there a clever way to combine a series of pictures into 1 image without doing it manually? I have some sets of 512 pictures which are named tx_0_0…tx_0_15… up untill tx_31_15.
  The first nr. represents the collumn the second the row where the tile is supposed to go.

  Regards,
  Brecht

  What happens if you use contact sheet with zero spacing between columns and rows and no label? File/Automate/ContactSheetII (in CS3)

  Thank you, I wasn’t aware of the contactsheet functionallity.

  Is there a way to retain the alpha layer when using the contactsheet automation…?

  To answer my own question: yes.
  The files I have only have an alpha channel, the contactsheet automation flattened everything leaving me with just a white image.
  Now :
  I’ve created an action which copies the alpha channel to the rgb channels, after the batch is done, I run contactsheet. On the final big image, I copy the rgb channels, create a new alpha, and copy the rgb into it.
