some days ago, i wrote you about how to create and use actions in photoshop.

but there’s more!

one really powerful aspect of actions is the ability to have them play other actions (even from different action sets).

this feature is ideal for actions that contain repetitive command segments that could be segregated into action �??subroutines�?� (thereby making the action easier to edit and maintain).

here’s how:

while recording an action, choose another action and press the play button: the play command is recorded as an action step (play action �??name�?� of Set �??name�?�) in the current action.

usefull, isn’t it?
