How do u save one
Make sure you choose the type of automation you want to use from the Document Type sheet when you create a new automation. Then it's just a case of using the Save command from the File menu. The different types will result in different final files. The workflow for example will only run inside automator itself, whereas the application type will create a standalone automation.
Do you have any idea what should I use if don't have knowledge on html coding but want to personalized my signature just like the one you have.
You could learn the basics, which should be enough to do what you need. I would recommend somewhere like W3 Schools ( www.w3schools.com ) or you could use an HTML generator like html-online.com. Alternatively you could hire someone like myself to write it for you.
New problem when trying to run the script it says that theImageCounts is undefined
If it's reporting that a variable is undefined you may need to check your variable declaration and make sure it's defined within the scope of where you wish to use it (i.e position in the script is important). It's also worth checking that you are spelling the variable name correctly. It is case sensitive.
At incluse extention application doesn't work.. :(
nvm I used ' ' instead of "
Thank you very much for sharing. This was very easy to follow, great job on the tutorial. I got it to work, yet, it does not accept dropped images. When I place them over the applet it just drops them onto the desktop area with no process. The App does not go "sort of transparent" (like in your video) when files are placed over it. If you have any ideas, please do let me know. (I am wondering if it is related to the scripting additions.) Thank you!
Did you choose application from the File Format dropdown in the save sheet? It sounds like it's just a script and not an application, so it doesn't know about receiving files that are dropped onto it.
@@airiam4436 Yes, it is a "standalone" *.app" file on my desktop.
Where did you get the specific icon/image you used on the example? Thank you!
I created it using Affinity Designer using Apple's guidelines for doing so.
@@airiam4436 Oh, ok, thanks for letting me know. I was about to Google for a similar image.
@@LuisTorres-qz5kr Feel free to email me at info@airiam.co.uk and I can send you a copy.
@@airiam4436 Thanks! I'll take you up on offer.
Apple Script is dead in the future. Don't waste your time. Cupertino likes killing their own great software. They lost their taste.
This is a great introduction. Didn't know about including functionality from the OS.
Well done! Very good presentation.
Glad you liked it!
