Batch Processing

HOW TO USE IT !First, load an image - this will be the template object - and apply a style of your choice. This style will be applied

to all the images you will select to batch-process.  !Switch to the Batch Processing view: go to Pro on the Donut Widget and then click Batch.

!Now you are in the Batch Processing Workspace:

!Choose whether to batch process a whole folder or only a few files. If you want to batch process a few files,

check ‘Selected Files’ on the left hand. Choose the images by double-clicking them. In this tutorial we chose

‘Folders’. !!Note: It’s useful to make two folders before you start batch-processing. One ‘Source folder’ with the original

images what you want to post process, and one empty ‘Target folder’, where PhotoDonut will put your result

images after processing. !!!!!!MADE BY PHOTODONUT! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Define the Source path of your images and the Target folder’s path, and assign an Output suffix if you wish, but

you can also leave it blank. !Note: This suffix can be any word or number you want, such as draft, final, -1, etc. This suffix will be added to

all the batch-processed image names with an underscore. !Define the Template Object and the Output file format, then click Start.  !

Note: If you are working with only one Object, it will be selected as the Template Object by default. Using

multiple objects can be useful when you have a background, foreground or texture to add to all the processed

images. !PhotoDonut will start processing all the images contained in the folder. A double progress bar will show the

processing of the current file (above) and the progress of the whole batch (below). The Processing Log shows

the processed file's path and the created file's path.

!Note: when using multiple objects, the selected Template Object will be replaced by the processed files, but

the other objects (like a canvas texture) will remain the same in all processing steps. !When the processing is finished, you will see the whole list of files edited. You can now switch back to the

Compositing viewport. 

!Go to your Target folder to see all the result images. In the image above see the two folders: ‘Source Folder’ -

the images before processing, and below the ‘Target folder’ with the result images Even if your folder contains

images of different shapes and sizes, PhotoDonut will obviously keep your images size and shape.  !!!
