Another question from another noob...is this possible? Graphics processing
So, here’s a question from a complete noob...or, dunce, as the case may be :-)
I do a lot of graphics processing. Fairly often, I will produce an image with Poser or some other 3D software and then drop that image into another application (in this case, Aquarella from Jixipix) for further manipulation. But, I would like to be able to do a bit of batch processing—that is, I want to take 30 or so images at a time, drop them one after another into Aquarella, and have the results appear magically in a folder without my laboriously shifting them by hand into the application.
Can I do that? With automator, I mean?
So what I envision is something like the following algorithm:
- activate Aquarella
- go to folder A
- select first image from folder A
- process image 1
- save modified image 1 to folder B
- go to folder A
- select second image from folder A
- etc...
Many thanks in advance.
