[Solved] Defined "Actions & Format" Actions reachable by the Automator

Post by bademeister »

Hi,

I created some "Actions & Format" actions within and only reachable in the browser view. My questions are:

1. It is possible to use my defined actions with the Automator too? In Automator I find some GC tools, but not in total with the same functionalities (e.g. the crop function is not the same). And if possible I don't want to create the actions twice.

2. How can I rename an existing action in GC? I found only the way to change the name on file level, in my Library folder.

Best regards

Hi,

the Automator action can't access the saved batches due the Apple sandboxing restrictions.

So, I suggest to use the GraphicConverter Finder Extensions.

Just publish a saved batch with the GraphicConverter prefs and add the top-level folder for access.
