Problem summary
Sending a large number of Layer Comps (roughly 170+, but dependant on system temp directory path, and PSD file name) can be unsuccessful on Windows due to the plugin request being too large to be sent via websocket.
This can also happen on macOS, but the Layer Comps limit is much higher due to the file paths included in the request being shorter.
Customer reported version
Flix 6.3.4
Customer reported platform
Windows 10
Steps to reproduce
1) Create a PSD with a fairly long name (23+ characters), and containing 170 layer comps.
2) Use Each Layer Comp to send 170 panels to Flix.
Expected behaviour
170 panels appear in Flix. The plugin should send the request for small batches of layer comps at a time, perhaps 5 by 5 like imports are usually handled in Flix, so the limit is never reached.
Actual behaviour
Photoshop processes all of the Layer Comps to create temporary PSDs to send to Flix, but the panels are never generated.
Workaround
Import the Layer Comps to Flix in smaller batches (20-40 at a time).
