Image Collector Macro (v10.0.2) Using Voice and Clipboard Screen Capture

I've used a macro like this from time to time to collect images on the screen. It could be handy for other people, so I'm posting it here. Every time you take a screenshot using CTRL-SHIFT-CMD-4, the images will trigger this KM macro, which will pop-up a window waiting for you to SPEAK the file name to be saved. It will then save the image file with that name.

Oh, you also need to create a MacOS Shortcut called GetName which has two actions:

  1. Dictate Text (More option: after short pause)
  2. Stop and Output (Dictated Text)
