  Keyboard shortcut for Share ‘Save Current Frame…’?

  Posted by Brian Thomas on March 12, 2015 at 11:36 am

  I have a whole lot of stills to create out of a timeline and I just can’t figure out how to get a keyboard shortcut assigned to that particular process.

  Also I’d like the names to increment in some way as they get saved to a particular directory rather than trying to ‘Replace’ what’s already there. Is there some way to do this? Thanks!

  You can select it as the default Share, and then hit the default share key command (command-e) by opening the destinations, and right clicking on the “Save Current Frame” and choose Make Default.

  You have to increment the name yourself in the save dialog.

  Thanks for that Jeremy. Shame there isn’t a way of getting it to increment for me but this has taken me a good way towards my goal.

  Hopefully someone else can remember what it was called but I remember there was an app that could take an XML and create a series of stills from markers on your timeline.
