picture resolution into a filename

Hi guys,

Finally got tired of resizing my pictures manually through XnView GUI and decided to do it with nConvert :idea: . Then possibly will add it as a button for Total Commander toolbar. But that's later, now, a question, is it possible to add picture resolution to the resulting filename? E.g. to resize picture_big.jpg to picture_small_1024x653.jpg?

Preferably with nconvert, but other options considered, except for manual renaming : )

Cheers,
Bobus :mrgreen:

XnView's batch rename function can add resolution to filename by using file template. This way you would have current resolution.
Ex.
<filename>_<Width>_<Height>_####

XnConvert can also add resolution (taken from original) to output filename .

marsh, thank you for a reply. Could you please explain how to use XnConvert to add resulting file resolution/pix dimensions to its filename? I did searched XnConvert help, but nothing close came up by 'resolution' or 'dimensions' keywords.

Using resulting resolution I was unable to discover.

marsh, okay, what about the original's pixel dimensions? May be it is possible to run nConvert twice to rename the file after resizing?
xnview, would it be possible to kindly add such a feature? As I understand it, DPI is for completely different purpose.
