Auto-date FMT bugs

Postby cdmn1 » Wed Mar 16, 2022 2:08 pm

When selecting Fmt "YMD HM" it renames as 2203241244.jpg, should be 220324 1244.jpg

Also when selecting custom it simply doesnt work no matter what format I use, files are renamed as the text string in the custom box instead of using the date itself.
I wanted to use a custom YYYYMMDD HHSS, but even if I replicate one of the existing formats in the drop down it doesnt recognize it and renames the files with the text string you typed

Expected result 20220324 1244.jpg
Actual result YYYYMMDD HHSS.jpg

running 3.4.3.0

The custom format-code to look more like... %Y%m%d %H%S

Tried the string on 3.4.4.0 and works great!

The fmt "YMD HM" is still missing the space unfortunately

Looks good here, 3.4.4.0.


8:Auto Date
Code: Select all
Mode: Prefix
Custom: %Y%m%d    %H%S

Code: Select all
  abc123
--->   20210923   1120  abc123
  abc123   - Copy (10) - Copy.txt
--->   20210923   1120  abc123   - Copy (10) - Copy.txt


(Now, there is a space between the inserted date & the original filename - which I might not have expected?)
