This option prefixes the target files with the prefix. If the source file is e.g. Photo.jpg and prefix is "New-", then the target file will have the following name: New-Photo.jpg.
This option appends a suffix to the target files. If the source file is e.g. Photo.jpg and suffix is โโ-New, then the target file will have the following name: Photo-New.jpg.
With the option Add date, a date can be appended to the target files. The way in which the date is to be formatted can be set via the format popup button.
In addition to the predefined formatting-options, an own formatting can be created. To do this, the Custom-Option must be selected from the Format popup button. In the text field to the right of the popup button an own format-option can be set. A detailed overview of how the date can be formatted can be found on the Date Formats page.
When you start SizeMyPics, the current date is preset, but you can adjust the date by pressing the up and down buttons to the right of the date display, or by clicking into the date field and typing the desired date field by field. To add the date to the file name, the checkbox to the right of the date display must be selected.
With the option Add numbering, it is possible to give the target files a consecutive number. For this, the checkbox must be activated and, if desired, a start number in the text box to the right of it, unless the numbering should start at 1. In addition, there is a choice-option to set the numbering before or after the file name.
With this option, all target files can be given a new name. If this option is selected, the Add Numbering option will also be automatically activated and can not be disabled if the Rename All Images option is enabled. The field for renaming can also be left empty if only a numbering of the pictures is desired.
Note: Please note that there are certain characters that are not allowed for file names, such as: < > ? \ " : | / *. These characters will be removed when processing images.
SizeMyPics provides a preview of the file renaming function, which is located below the file naming options and always displays the values โโof the file currently selected in the files table and will automatically change as you change the file renaming values.
