The workflow of Shutter is quite simple:
- Add events that are to be monitored, and
- Add actions that are to be executed when the specified events occur.
The details are as follows:
Step 1: Events
Events are usually based on periodic checking of a system state, time or execution state of a process.
- You can add multiple events as you want.
- The scenario in which they will trigger actions is defined by the selected Logic.
Step 2: Actions
Actions are executed one by one, from top-to-bottom.
- You can add as many actions as you want but beware that some actions are terminal, meaning that they will cause Shutter to stop processing the rest of actions or terminate application altogethe, For example: the Shutdown action.
