37 new name for the file. The dialog will be different depending on the
|
|
|
38 number of files selected to be renamed. A simple dialog will appear
|
|
|
39 when renaming a single file, however when renaming multiple files the
|
|
|
40 dialog will include a list of the file to be renamed and additional
|
|

66 displayed above the text entry. To rename the file type the new name
|

67 and press Enter or activate the Rename button. When a file is

83 numerical naming of files.</P>
|

84 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">The file name list will change to
|
|

85 include a preview column that will show the resulting name of each

|
|
86 file. The text entry will change to three entries; the first
|
|
|
87 represents the text that appears in the new names before the number,
|
|
|
88 the second will be the start number to use when incrementing the file
|
|
|
89 number, and the third represents the text to append to the name after
|
|
|
90 the number. The end text should include the file name extension,
|
|
|
91 therefore batch renaming multiple types of files (those with
|
|
|
92 different extensions) all at once is not recommended.</P>
|
|
|
93 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">The padding number can be used to
|
|
|
94 change the minimum length of characters to use for the number portion
|
|
|
95 of the new name. When the file number results in fewer characters
|
|
|
96 than the padding size, the result will be padded with leading zeros
|
|
|
97 to fill the remaining space. For example if padding size is 3, a file
|
|
|
98 with the number 24 will appear in the file name as “024”.</P>
|
|
|
99 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">The order of the file list can be
|
|
|
100 changed by dragging a name to the desired location within the list.
|
|
|
101 The preview column will update to reflect the new order.</P>
|
|
|
102 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">When the preview of new names is
|
|
|
103 satisfactory, press Enter or activate the Rename button to rename the
|
|
|
104 files to match the name in the preview column. Press Escape or
|
|
|
105 activate the Cancel button to close the dialog and abort the rename
|
|
|
106 operation.</P>
|
|
|
107 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">If the resulting new names match any
|
|
|
108 existing files, a warning dialog will notify you. The rename dialog
|
|
|
109 will remain so that you can select a different set of names.</P>
