Postby craigcasey » Mon May 30, 2016 2:32 pm

hello I am trying to figure out how to use this great tool to rename files with an alpha sequence

for example

img_3456.jpg
img_3457.jpg
img_3458.jpg
img_3459.jpg

to

10093a.jpg
10093b.jpg
10093c.jpg
10093d.jpg

Name (2) Fixed = 10093
Numbering (10) with Mode = Suffix, Incr. = 1 and set the type to 'a-z'

set the Type to 'a-z'

Oh, wow, when I looked in there, I didn't scroll down far enough to see the alpha entries.
I had thought it only offered numeric bases, heh.

Maybe a rearrange of the listing, with "common" entries first, then the less common.
At least that way the commons will be visible upon clicking the dropdown.

Code: Select all
Base 2 (Binary)
Base 8 (Octal)
Base 10 (Decimal)
Base 16 (Hex)
A-Z
a-z
------------------
Base 3
Base 4
Base 5
...
Base 36


(And octal only needs to be there for historic reasons ;-).)

that works perfect. Is there a way I can set the first number to just a number and then second file to say "a" "b" "c"? for example

10093
10093a
10093b
10093c

Thanks for your help amazing little program
