Can we add the name of the folder (Album) as well as the parent folder ?
Can we also add an underscore between date and time (or a mean to edit the date/tome format) ?
Thks in advance

Both if possible but Album is the main one.
Sometime the parent folder can be used as a general subject (location of a travel for example) while the folder (Album) as the topic monument, fun place, city,...)

Oups, back to the list of To do.
Either I missed the thing when I tested or there was a regression in between?
In the list of items available to renaming the File category there is Parent Folder, which is right and works fine. However the Current folder (== Album) is missing.

You are right Pierre, I missed it. And having a look at the thumbnail labels I found the same "issue", didn't catch the Album item and was close to tell
Wouldn't it be better to name it "Folder (Album)" or "Album (folder)" ?
