Filename into fixed pattern + parameters from that filename

Postby zbigg » Sat Jun 30, 2018 7:11 pm

Hello,
I am new to the app and this forum so hello everybody )) !
I have not learned JS yet yet BR seem best option to speed up some dummy actions.
After some preliminary RAW processing I get simple-named photoshop files, eg: 10A, 11B, 4D etc where number is a NUMBER and a letter is a LETTER -> <NUMBER><LETTER>.psd
What I would like to try is to set some fixed prefix + fixedpart+NUMBER+fixedpart+NUMBER+LETTER.
Some non important interpunction characters in between.
eg XXXXXX-YYYY-NUMBER_YYYY-NUMBER_ZZ-NUMBER_LETTER

so actually need to extract a number and a letter from the filename and use them separately as parameters within the new filename.

Any suggestion how to approach BR syntax highly appreciated ))


cheers,
zbigg

Seriously nobody?
How to use parts of existing filename and compose a new filename plus some fixed additions?

Hi , is the initial file name always:

[1-9][1-9][A-Z]

that is two single digits numbers followed by a single letter?

Also

fixedprefix + fixedpart1 + NUMBER + fixedpart1 + NUMBER + LETTER

are fixedprefix , fixedpart1 , fixedpart2 always the same?

thanks
