Hey hey. I've been using the program for simple applications for a while, but this particular use case is a bit more advanced than what I'm used to:
Basically I have a bunch of files named: tile 00001 tile 00002 tile 00003 tile 00004 tile 00005 etc... through tile 09216 I want to rename every 144th file starting from a chosen file in the folder and rename it to something like :"tile top corner 1-1-1" Through "tile top corner 1-1-64" (The images reference a grid of tiles 18x8 and there are 64 images that go together into a single set) I have 9300 images and I DON'T want to do this by hand... what do I do?? |

Hi Bobby, welcome, I'm not sure I understand precisely what you're looking to do, but I'm reasonably sure it's doable once we know your exact needs. Can you take a second stab at a description, this time being very exact as to the sequence of events that needs to take place? Please try to think about this from the perspective of someone who knows nothing about what you are trying to get done. :) Also, 1. Is each tile's total information stored in a separate folder, or are all 9300-some files together, or some other arrangement. 2. Are there a variable number of files that correspond to each tile's total information package? 3. You talk about skipping files, so they are not to be renamed at all? And the files that are to be renamed, are they ONLY the 64 files that pertain to the grid of each tile's picture? (I'm assuming pictures, as in a sales situation, but of course they could be 3D printer definition files, or print-on-ceramic commercial ink-jet printer definition files, or ? something I haven't thought of). Looking forward to helping... :) Best, DF |
