Creating Triptych Images

This Photoshop script creates a triptych with arbitrary number of images in horizontal orientation, spaced evenly.

When launched, the script will display a dialog that lets you select the parameters for the subsequent composite image. The source images list contains all currently open images. By default, all open images are selected for inclusion in the triptych. You can reduce the number of images to include by moving the slider towards the left, which causes the source image list to shorten. The other dialog controls are pretty self-explanatory.

Once you hit OK, the script will create a new multi-layered image from all of the selected source images, spaced evenly as indicated in the dialog. Note that the resulting composite image can end up very large as it is neither flattened nor reduced in scale.
