File->Export Layers->

Prompts for a folder to save PNG files. Pretty straightforward.

Tested in 2.6.1 on linux and 2.6.6 on XP.

if you want to save layers

if you want to save layers with alpha channel you only need to comment tmp.flatten(). The code looks like:

for layer in dupe.layers:
layer.visible = 1
name = layer.name + ".png"
fullpath = os.path.join(path, name);
tmp = dupe.duplicate()
#tmp.flatten()
pdb.file_png_save(tmp, tmp.layers[0], fullpath, name, 0, 9, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)
dupe.remove_layer(layer)

Thanks for the script

nice

I should add that as an option perhaps - to flatten or not.

in windows may be a problem

in windows may be a problem mostly how to chose/wrote the path

As use / instead then \ ..or viceversa

and blank spaces in the path names, quite commune in Windows( As example C/Documents and Settings/ ) would be
supported ?

no problem

Nah - I just tested in XP and it's OK. Both windows and linux have a funkiness though: you have to show the location bar in the file chooser. When you are in the directory to export to, enter a period (.) in the location bar and *then* click open or press enter.

But \ or / does not matter, nor do spaces in the path.

fixed the quirk

the script now prompts for a dir, so you don't have to put the "." in there... I used PF_FILE initially, but PF_DIRNAME is correct.
