Button to open file in Photoshop or folder in Bridge?

Is there way to create two buttons where on would open the selected .psd file in Photoshop and the other would open that folder in Bridge?

I know that I can double click the .psd file and I did define the .psd file type to open in Photoshop. But I somehow I like the two buttons.

Thank you

BTW: I love the fact that you switched to Discourse!

Go into Customize mode (Settings > Customize Toolbars) then drag Photoshop.exe to a toolbar. A button will be created for it automatically, and it will send selected files to the program (or just launch the program if nothing is selected). You can edit the button to see the command that is generated, and change if it desired.


To make a button which sends the current folder to Bridge, the command would be something like this:

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Bridge CC 2017\Bridge.exe" {sourcepath}

Got it.

I created the Bridge button the same quick and easy way you described for Photoshop and then simply replaced in advanced settings "filepath" with "sourcepath".

Thank you! Also for the very fast reply.
