I've just stumbled upon this great program, but I just don't understand all these regular expressions and stuff. I've been looking at the forum but still don't understand how to solve my problem.
Is there a way to NOT change, or to protect the last part of a filename, when using the "New Name" feature ? Example: "Light_IC1848_300.0s_Bin1_20230202-220946_-19.9C_0001.fit" I want to change the first part, but the "-19.9C_0001.fit" should always stay the same as the original. The total length of the filename is not always the same. "I_want_to_change_this_part_but_not_the_last_part-19.9C_0001.fit" |

There is a good basic intro to regular expressions in the User Guide: https://www.advancedrenamer.com/user_guide/regul ar_expresions
If we assume that the text that you wish to keep is always in the format "-19.9C_0001" ie a string commencing with "-" then you can use "-" as a separator. Try a Replace method... Replace: .*(-[^-]*$) with: New_Text\1 Use regular expressions |
