I am developing an Automator Action, and I have a problem while configuring the Info.plist file, and more specifically, the AMDescription block. ... I can modify the AMDescription block and put something like that :

    <key>AMDescription</key>
    <dict>
        <key>AMDAlert</key>
            <string>Alert example</string> ...
    </dict>

I get those items in the description given in Automator :

Name of action
(* AMDSummary text to explain what your action does goes here. *)
Warning: (* AMDAlert text goes here. (optional) *)

As you can see, all the valued items in my configuration file are replaced by defaults settings for the given keys.

The description strings in the Info.plist aren't necessarily the ones that get displayed, because they can (and in the default project, are) overridden by the strings in the localized InfoPlist.strings file. Go change those, and it should work as you desire.

Thanks for your answer. Effectively, il solved my problem.

If you're developing Automator actions, you'll get better results to Automator-specific questions by writing to <mailto:email@hidden> instead.

I take note of this.

Thank you.
