Arrow Return.png Shutter  

The workflow of Shutter is quite simple:

  1. Add events that are to be monitored, and
  2. 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, execution state of a process, or system time.

  • You can add multiple events, and also set the logical relationship between them.

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.
