Another Realer productivity tip for creative professionals. In this tutorial I show you how to use an Applescript to automate the creation of job folders. I also explain the main components so you can modify the script to suit your own requirements. This helps to standardize your projects and makes you more productive.
Hi 100paces, many thanks!
I tried something similar by copying an existing folder (with the right folder structure) to a new folder (named by the user) and set it to NewProjectFolder:
set ExistingFolder to entire contents of "Macintosh HD:..."
The folder specified in NewProjectFolder is created but the script generates an error "Can't make NewProjectFolder into type folder"
Would you know why?
(This line does create the folder structure on the desktop:
duplicate ExistingFolder to desktop)
