Could not complete your request because of a program error

Generic Photoshop error, usually from host state mismatch (active tool mode, missing target, unsupported descriptor in current state). Fix:
  • Exit text-edit/transform/modal dialogs.
  • Retry operation.
  • Check panel transaction log for failing op index.

​
The command “Delete” is not currently available or The command “Make” is not currently available

Action Manager command attempted in invalid state or without valid target. Fix:
  • Verify target layer/document exists.
  • Ensure active document is valid and unlocked for mutation.
  • Prefer canonical high-level ops before raw batchPlay descriptors.

​
One or more selections cannot be exported because they are empty

Export path expects an active non-empty selection. Fix:
  • Use document export (exportDocument) instead of selection export path when selection is optional.
  • Set/verify selection before layer export flows.

​
Save dialog blocks and timeouts

A hidden Save As dialog can stall automation. Fix:
  • Prefer saveDocumentAs with explicit output.
  • Avoid saveDocument on unsaved docs unless dialog flow is intentional.
If Photoshop is in modal state, bridge retries internally and then fails with a clear message. Fix:
  • Exit modal workflows and retry.
  • Keep operation transactions smaller when debugging.
