Create an Action which saves images to same directory?

i have several folders of  tiff images.  need process them individually, save them jpg in same folder original tif in.

 

i  created action provides several of final steps need, including "save as".  clicked "modal" option "save as" step, can edit name need before saving.

 

my problem action "remembers" directory path in action created (i.e. first folder).  when run action on images i've opened other folders, defaults first folder.  need navigate current folder every time.  pain.

 

how can have action open save dialog same directory open image?

you use file.automate>batch

.

set source folder folder images.

 

set destination folder folder (does not matter in case)

 

check override action "save as" commands box.

 

under play, choose action save step.

 

with enable dialog checked in save step in action,

using batch should open save dialog in source folder.

 

 

 

 

if rather open images first, instead of 1 @ time,  can set

the source opened files.

 

if way, it's idea have images want to

process open. (i.e. images same folder)
