Finder Icon Copy and Paste

Macro Library
,
1

Copying and pasting icons in the Finder is a tedious process. These three macros take care of most of the tedium.

  • Copy Icon of Selected Item to the Clipboard
  • Paste Icon on Clipboard to Icon of Selected Item
  • Replace Icon of Previous Window's Selection with Icon of the Front Window's Selection

They load into a group called Finder Icon Copy and Paste. The group is setup to activate a palette in response to ⌥⌘I. If you are working with a lot of icons in a short period, you might want to bind keystrokes to the macro and turn off the palette.
