Some file formats will add more options to the save action if they are available.

Phatch also can use external programs such as Blender and Imagemagick if those programs are installed.

Note: If you need multiple copies of the same file (eg.

002_save-action

But remember the action list is processed from top to bottom.

So don’t create and keep your thumbnail before the full size image.

003_filetypes

If an action needs to be temporarily disabled, right-tap on the action item and then disable it.
