# The installer will ask you if you want to install the Adobe Camera Raw Plugin (that is yes in most cases)

"Would you like to install Adobe Camera Raw at the end?
(y/n): y"

# The installer will also ask you weather you want to install vdk3d proton,
# this utility allows you to use your GPU with wine.

"Would you like to install vdk3d proton?
(y/n): n"

# However, it can be a bit buggy. Therefore it's up to you weather to install it or not.
# You can always install it afterwards by selecting option "4":

COMMON GDOWN ERROR

Sometimes, this error can show up:

Access denied with the following error:

 	Cannot retrieve the public link of the file. You may need to change
	the permission to 'Anyone with the link', or have had many accesses.

You may still be able to access the file from the browser:

	 https://drive.google.com/uc?id=...

Uninstalling gdown by pip uninstall gdown, and then reinstalling with pip install gdown fixes this issue.
If that doesn't fix the problem, there are some other potential ways to fix the issue: [1] [2] [3]
Opening this link in the browser and downloading the file manually .../photoshop-22-linux/installation_files is also viable as a workaround.

Configure Photoshop:

1- Launch Photoshop and go to: Edit -> preferences -> tools, and uncheck "Show Tooltips" (You will not be able to use any plugins otherwise).

2- ONLY IF YOU INSTALLED VKD3D PROTON: Go to: Edit -> preferences -> Camera raw... -> performance and set "Use graphic processor" to "Off"

To change the wine theme to light Windows 10:

# Navigate to the Photoshop clone folder and start the main menu e.g.

cd ~/Documents/photoshop-22-linux
./main-menu.sh

# And select option 5

"[Choose options 1-6 or 7 to exit]: 5"

# Now navigate to the "Desktop integration" tab and change the theme to "Light"

How to run Photoshop:

After you run the installer, open your application menu, and search for "Photoshop CC", and click on it. As simple as that!

NOTE: If you do not find the desktop entry, or if it doesn't work, then run thelauncher.sh file. This command should launch Photoshop for you, or it will at least tell you what the error is. (This command is also printed at the end of the installation)

To-Do:

Add a sum verification for large downloaded files (ps_components.tar.xz CameraRaw_12_2_1.exe)
Check wether Photoshop is installed before installing (does the "Ps-prefix" folder exist?)
~~Colour code the output~~ Colour code the output of all scripts using a printMessage function
[ x ] Move all functions to a function script
~~Check that components are installed in the installer~~ Improve dependencies checking
Sort out the "open with Photoshop" issue
Add ability to create multiple prefixes
