Can Renamer Do This?

[Mike Truly]

Let's say I have some selected images with different names such as:

cat.jpg
cat3.jpg
dog.jpg
doggies.jpg
tree.jpg
trees_15.jpg

and I want to add a prefix (in 1 step) to the names such as:

A_cat.jpg
A_cat3.jpg
A_dog.jpg
A_doggies.jpg
A_tree.jpg
A_trees_15.jpg

Is this possible with the renamer function (in 1 step)? Is there a means in the names template that will use the existing name such as a wildcard?

Thanks!

You can use A_<Filename>

Pierre,

Excellent. Thank you! I could not find any helpfile info that told me the wildcard formats... perhaps I was looking in the wrong place.

Thanks again.

You can find out about placeholders using the "Insert >>" button. In the appearing menu most (all?) placeholders available are listed and are inserted with their correct placeholder name and syntax (e.g. <filename>)if selected.

Helmut,

Thanks for this info! I was looking (almost) everywhere!

Thanks again.
