Firstly, I want to acknowledge that this a GREAT utility, with more features than any other of it's kind. Congratulations Jim!
Now on to my question:
I use BRU to often rename folders into an orderly fashion - for example, on drive E:\ I'll have a main folder called Vacations
As subfolders I'll have folders named:
Vacation.1980
Vacation.1981
Vacation.1982
Vacation.1983
Vacation.1984
etc. up through the present year.
As you might imagine, I simply dump pictures from those years into their respective yearly subfolder.
So, while on the left-pane, if I highlight the main folder (E:\Vacations), the right-pane shows all the "yearly folders."
What I can't seem to find out how to do - hence it may not be possible with BRU - what I want to be able to do is auto-rename files in a folder based on the folder name. My intention was/is to use the
foldername to use as the filename, and then use suffixes and numbering to give the new filenames meaningful names.
For example, using BRU, I'd like for all the files, regardless of their current filename, to automatically be renamed based on my specifications.
So, for example, in the Vacation.1983 folder, BRU would auto-rename all the files in that folder to
Vacation.1983.001.jpg
Vacation.1983.002.jpg
Vacation.1983.003.jpg
Vacation.1983.004.jpg
etc.
Does BRU have this capability? If not, I think it would be a great additional feature, as I have occasion to this type of renaming quite often - only now, I have select each subfolder manually and manually use the RegEx(1) replace function go from there.
Thanks for your consideration...
