Sorry if the question is answered somewhere else, I’m a complete newbie.
I need to perform a sequence of actions involving 2 different windows, where the content of a window is used, then applied to the other, etc. Recording the action, I saw that – from the point of view of Photoshop – these windows selections consist simply in "select next/previous window" or something similar.

Is there a way to set up the action so that I can edit the window name to select, or even better to have it ask me at runtime on which window I want to work at a given step?

thanks!

Not really. You might be better off bringing the contents of one document into the other, working on the layers then exporting to a new document when done.
