XnView Software

Hello,
Files are renamed beforehand using a date and time sort. Please have a look to the attached a file below.
The problem is still there.
When the rename/copy process works, it seems that the files are processed randomly. I say this because the window showing the process shows this.
Yours sincerely.

so how do you achieve the expected result?

• input
  - sort input list by name/modeified-date

• output
  - apply enumerator to sorted input list AND
  - reset enumerator on new folder

test files from prev post: xn.7z

Hello,

For the moment I can't obtain the expected result . Enumerators of files are still in the wrong order.
The root cause is perhaps because I can't find the option "reset enumerator on new folder" mentioned in the previous post.
Please, where is this option?

Regards.

Hello,
It really don't undestand. I'm sorry about that .
In you print screen I just can see a dot in the "Input folder" option. This is what you call "reset enumerator on new folder"?
If yes, for me, this option is not ok. The way the "Import & Sort" works is not ok for me.
It doesn't matter. I will work in another way.
It's too hard to explain in English.
Regards.

I think its better to rework "# enumerator per [Input/Output folder]"
into single "Continuous numbering" (or "Consecutive numbering") checkbox (unchecked by default), eg:

if "New filename" is checked and has # enumerator,
depending on "Continuous numbering" checkbox:
☐ - use global numbering
☑ - use local numbering (per output folder)


ps: maybe I'm missing something, but so far I see absolutely no reason to use enumerator per source folder

Sorry you need to use 'output folder" option.

But i reopened the issue...

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 1.8.1. Please check and confirm the bug fix here.

'enumerator per output folder' works as expected

Hello,
I confirm, the new version 1.8.1 works well . When I use the "Import and Sort" function files are sorted an renamed correctly.
I have to use "Output folder" option in the "# enumerator per folder" section.
Good job!!!
Regards.
