Action confusion

[pixel8tor]

Hi all,

Hopefully someone can explain this behavior and how to deal with it. If I create an Action with a Hue/Saturation step and set it to show the dialog, and the user makes adjustments when running the Action, it seems the adjustments are saved back to the Hue/Saturation step?! So the next time the Action is played the Hue/Saturation step comes up with the users previous adjustments. Is that the way Photoline's Actions are supposed to work? I don't expect the users adjustments to be recorded back to the Action. That just seems wrong. I want the Action to play back exactly the way it was created, not with modified dialogs! If that *is* the way Photoline handles Action dialogs, how do I reset the dialog so it displays the settings that were set when the Action was originally created? Or even reset it to NO adjustments. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, because this behavior makes no sense to me. Can anyone tell me how to deal with this craziness?

Thanks

P.S. I also notice that if I create a single step Action with a Hue/Saturation step and run it with no open file Photoline immediately crashes! Oops!
Windows 10 Pro - Photoline 25.5

To be honest i newer used pop-up dialog option in actions, but yes it feels like a problem.
It double-click on action step in the actions list, it allow to set and remember custom settings of adjustment layer. This is normal behave.
But when changes are remembered during action playback, this is not normal.

I guess you need to save preset with desired settings and apply it every time pop-up window shows up. Or if you need default settings on start, just click Reset every time.
