Thanks so much for all your help with this, but it's still not working for me.
I had taken your original workflow and made some changes based on how I tend to use screenshots. Here's the version of the workflow that I'm using... http://www.filedropper.com/screenshots.
Essentially, I have three 'types' of screenshots, each with the choice to either do a window or selection capture (I don't ever had a need for full screen or timed). The 'types' of screenshots can be summarized as follows...
- Edit: In this case, the screenshot is opened in an editing application (Skitch in my case) immediately following the capture. I can then save it out from there once the edits are made.
- Save: In this case, the screenshot is saved (as is) directly to my 'Downloads' folder immediately following capture.
- Copy: In this case, the screenshot is saved (as is) directly to my clipboard immediately following capture.
I've got the workflow working great aside from the ability to have the screenshots automatically assigned a name each time instead of having to manually enter it myself. If I make the changes you recommend, it works fine in some of the situations but seems to blow up my functionality in others (e.g. opening in Skitch).
Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for the help!
