10.6: Remove time/date stamp from screen shot filenames
The default behaviour looks pretty useful to me... So, being a user left behind in 10.5/PPC-land, I'd like to see if reversing the process above would work for 10.5.
10.6: Remove time/date stamp from screen shot filenames
... I'd like to see if reversing the process above would work for 10.5. I was thinking the same thing. A Google search for "folder action move screenshot" is yielding some interesting approaches. Presumably folks who would like get the results of the hint but not worry about the potential code signing risks could apply a folder action to do what the hint does.
10.6: Remove time/date stamp from screen shot filenames
I agree, default behavior is much better because the screenshots are now sorted in order. With the old 1-2-3-4-5 system, if you removed Screenshot 3 while keeping 1, 2, 4 and 5 on the desktop, the next screenshot would be named Screenshot 3 again. Good luck figuring out the name of the screenshot you just took if you have 20 or so screenshots on the desktop with some of them trashed... With the new naming system, you can just click on some file that's alphabetically after "Screenshot..." and shift-tab to the last screenshot.

24-hour time formatting anyone?Customizing the Short Times format under System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats influences the time format used in "Screen shot …" filenames (among other things).
10.6: Remove time/date stamp from screen shot filenames
Clearly an old post, but I just came across this and it was useful to me. I found though that I had to modify the medium time, not the short time. Maybe it's new that OS X pulls from that. Click on Customize next to times, and then click on the down arrow in the "pill" for the first number and choose 00-23. Screen shot names will get created with 24 hour times now. |
