Problem with continuous batching?

Post by Tinglypeanut »

Hi,

New to ASP3 and photo editing in general. I just installed the program and I continuously get the "Select a destination" pop-up window. I select a folder and after a few seconds the pop up appears again. If I hit cancel, a window stating that the batch was not processed appears. When I do select a folder, the photo goes to gallery batch. Any help on how to stop the continuous asking to send a photo to gallery batch?

Thanks,
Tinglypeanut

You can set the destination folder in the Batch Settings, "Output Name and Location", if it will always be the same. Otherwise, you have to select a folder every time you use a batch.

Alternatively, what I do is use colour coding to sort a day's shots by intended destination folder, then use filtering by colour to select them when I have finished the triage, Ctrl-A to select all photos with a specific destination colour, then send to batch, which means I only specify the destination folder once per destination.
