Dropzone: automation routine via drag-n-drop'a
Makradar Technologies / / December 19, 2019
If most of the time working at the computer, you should consider working to automate most routine operations. Every second saved in the end turns into a free life clock, is not it ?.
One of the most useful utilities for Mac OS X - it DropZone. The program simplifies and speeds up the execution of operations. Job applications entirely based on drag-n-drop (drag and drop). Here are a few examples of time-saving due to DropZone:
- you want to install any application. Just drag the DMG-file to DropZone icon in the menu bar or in one of the circles on the side of the screen (the metaphor of "circles" is completely borrowed from the Path application). Dropzone otroet disk image (DMG), find the application file, copy it to the Application folder, extract the image from the Finder.
- Do you want to quickly share files with friends or colleagues. In DropZone have circles for Dropbox, Flickr, ImageShack. Again, simply drag the file into the right circle, the program does the rest for you. As a result, you get a link to the clipboard, which you can share with your friends.
- fast archiving of files. Drag the file to the Dropzone icon in the menu bar, the program compresses it, and a zip-archive puts on desktop (compare with the normal procedure: Highlight the file context menu, select "Shrink objects "; with dropzone - just drag and drop files).
Dropzone functionality is expanded using the plug-ins. Among them, there are modules that allow you to quickly transfer files to iPhone, to use Amazon S3 as a private "cloud" print text, cut links. Write your own plug-in can be anyone who knows the Ruby language.
On ordinary days, Dropzone It costs $ 13.99. Today, action and action programs can be purchased for $ 2. In my opinion, the app is worth every penny spent.
