Trigger a Photoshop droplet as photos are taken!

Post by DataMystic Support »

Watch your photo folder and then trigger a Photoshop droplet - live as you take each photo!

FileWatcher 3.3 released

What's New:
* Action, Network/Polling and Live Log now support Unicode filenames.
* Fixed bug when multiple filespecs (e.g. *.txt;*.doc) were used with the
Network/Polling option - any existing files would be processed correctly, but
any further files would not be processed at all.
* Removed automatic fixup of "%FILE%" - this is no longer needed or desirable.
* Better cleanup on exit when Actions are still running.
