psd_tools.api.shape

Shape module.

In PSD/PSB, shapes are all represented as VectorMask in each layer, and optionally there might be Origination object to control live shape properties and Stroke to specify how outline is stylized.

VectorMask

class psd_tools.api.shape.VectorMask(data)[source]

Vector mask data.

Vector mask is a resolution-independent mask that consists of one or more Path objects. In Photoshop, all the path objects are represented as Bezier curves. Check paths property for how to deal with path objects.

property bbox

Bounding box tuple (left, top, right, bottom) in relative coordinates, where top-left corner is (0., 0.) and bottom-right corner is (1., 1.).

Returns:: tuple

property clipboard_record

Clipboard record containing bounding box information.

Depending on the Photoshop version, this field can be None.

property disabled: If the mask is disabled.

property initial_fill_rule

Initial fill rule.

When 0, fill inside of the path. When 1, fill outside of the shape.

Returns:: int

property inverted: Invert the mask.

property not_linked: If the knots are not linked.

property paths

List of Subpath. Subpath is a list-like structure that contains one or more Knot items. Knot contains relative coordinates of control points for a Bezier curve. index indicates which origination item the subpath belongs, and operation indicates how to combine multiple shape paths.

In PSD, path fill rule is even-odd.

Example:

for subpath in layer.vector_mask.paths:
    anchors = [(
        int(knot.anchor[1] * psd.width),
        int(knot.anchor[0] * psd.height),
    ) for knot in subpath]

Returns:: List of Subpath.

Stroke

class psd_tools.api.shape.Stroke(data)[source]

Stroke contains decorative information for strokes.

This is a thin wrapper around Descriptor structure. Check _data attribute to get the raw data.

property blend_mode: Blend mode.

property content: Fill effect.

property enabled: If the stroke is enabled.

property fill_enabled: If the stroke fill is enabled.

property line_alignment: Alignment, one of inner, outer, center.

property line_cap_type: Cap type, one of butt, round, square.

property line_dash_offset

Line dash offset in float.

Returns:: float

property line_dash_set

Line dash set in list of UnitFloat.

Returns:: list

property line_join_type: Join type, one of miter, round, bevel.

property line_width: Stroke width in float.

property miter_limit: Miter limit in float.

property opacity: Opacity value.

property stroke_adjust: Stroke adjust

Origination

Origination keeps live shape properties for some of the primitive shapes. Origination objects are accessible via origination property of layers. Following primitive shapes are defined: Invalidated, Line, Rectangle, Ellipse, and RoundedRectangle.

Invalidated

class psd_tools.api.shape.Invalidated(data)[source]

Invalidated live shape.

This equals to a primitive shape that does not provide Live shape properties. Use VectorMask to access shape information instead of this origination object.
