Paul Barrett Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 Is there a way to rename files using a custom counter, but incrementing the file number by 2 instead of 1 each step? I need to rename the files to guarantee correct display sequence but I need to insert some title slides afterwards. Regards Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uwe Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Hello Paul, I don't see this option inside Daminion at the moment but with external tools and a "rescan folders" - not an optimal workflow. But you can "play" a little bit with the variables "%#" and "%$". The "%#" is the counter initialized in the preferences. It will be incremented until you change the initial value in the preferences. I don't know the maximum number of digits of this counter. The "%$" works like a "job counter" within a rename action. For each rename action it starts with "0". I don't know at the moment how the "%inum" works - which table and column in the database. Regards, Uwe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
