Aperture's available Automator actions
Aperture was released by Apple today, and seems to offer professional photographers a lot of useful features. But what good are the coolest features in the world if you've got to spend hours at your computer just to get your work done? Enter Automator.
Automator.us has a nice overview of some of the Automator actions that are currently available for Aperture. A few highlights include:
- Choose Projects – This action will pass references of the chosen Aperture projects to the next action in the workflow. Select the checkbox to the left of the projects you wish to use.
- Assign Keywords to Images – This action will assign the provided keywords to the Aperture images passed from the previous action. Use the buttons at the bottom left of the keyword list to add and delete keywords from the list. Double-click a list item in the Keywords column to edit the keyword value.
- Store Disk Item References – This action will store references to the disk items passed from the previous action.
There are more, of course. Check out the article for the complete list and some example workflows.
