Working with Script Packs

You can create script packs from either the Script Browser or Script Pack dialog box. Creating script packs from the Script Pack dialog box enables you to use the same script multiple times in a pack.

Once you’ve setup your script pack, and optionally provided a set of options for the pack, you can save the pack to a file to access later or share with a colleague.

Note: Running script packs can be automated with Headless Mode.
