Title: renaming
Post by: barry685 on November 29, 2014, 11:54:16 AM
When I shoot a session my studio management program gives the session a number . For example 22000
I need my files renamed 22000-001, 22000-002, 22000-003 etc.
Is this possible with flashpipe?
I don't mind setting this manually for each download. Also I need to be able to specify the length of the serial number, it is usually 3 digits, but sometimes 4 digits.
Thanks

Will something like this work for you?
If So,
See settings snap 13

Almost.

You mean: Instead of 0001, you need 001?
I will see if I can Terry on here. I don't use the configuration much. I import my images from the card as named by the camera.
Terry does the customizing.
He will be able to shed light.

Yes that is what I mean.
Hopefully it is doable (before black Friday promotion end's) :)

Thank You.

No, it's fixed at 4 digits. The only option is whether it's in brackets or not.

There you have it, Barry.

I don't know how many images in a set, but you can rename singly in Qimage or Explorer and knock out that extra zero.
