All files that I create end with modified date-time. Each screencapture, each document. I started doing so many years ago.
When renaming for instance screencaptures, there is an option to insert date time.
Would it be possible to add a feature to rename a file and modified date is then automatically added?
In the below example I would simply enter text and modified date would automatically be added.
Right now I have to go to first character, remove existing text, leaving date-time in place and then enter new text/name.

Re: Rename files-add modified date-time
so choose an item in 'insert date/time' menu, and add it automatically?

Re: Rename files-add modified date-time
Sorry for the very late reply. Reason is that for renaming I use another tool, as the feature requested isn't available within XnViewMP.
Using the other tool, I often select multiple files (about the same subject) and rename them adding a seq# and modified date-time.
So I would get something like
Picture about shopping-01-01012020 121212.png
Picture about shopping-02-01012020 121214.png
Picture about shopping-03-01012020 121216.png
etc.
then I store them into a folder 'Picture about shopping'
Probably this can be achieved using batch rename template.
1. How to get date-time without the dashes (without the '-') ?
2. Can this template be stored under a Function button ?
Thanks.
