Hi grinch,

All you need to do is check the 'Toggle Dialog On/Off' box next to the 'Fill' command 5th from the bottom of the list of actions (see pic below). When you run the action it will stop at that step and you can choose whichever colour you want - when you have entered the fill colour it will continue with the rest of the commands.

For regular use make a duplicate copy of the action file and rename it to whatever you like. Then select the Fill command 5th from bottom, record a new Fill command with the new background colour and then delete the old Fill command. You will then have an action file for your chosen background colour.

Good luck, let me know if you have any problems

thanks for this

cheers for this

For Photoshop 6, Replace the last "Set Forground Color" with a new one using RGB 40/40/40. Then replace the following "Fill Using <unknown>" with a "Fill Using foreground color". Everything else looked good to me.

Thanks I'm ready to upload my first labels but getting the preview to look like discs is giving me grief. This should help.

Good Lookin...! :)

Many thanks for this. It should make life a little less confusing.

Thank's, this will come in handy.
