Underscore instad of blank spaces
« on: June 18, 2021, 07:30:16 AM »
Is there a way to rename a file (for example just before uploading it via ftp) putting underscores instead of blank spaces?

For example: TEST PHOTO 001.jpg to TEST_PHOTO_001.jpg

Thank you all

Yes, use the following as your rename string:

{filenamebase:0:tr: /_}

See: https://docs.camerabits.com/support/solutions/articles/48001077381-variable-substring-extraction

Note: this is a relatively new feature and requires PM6 (or Plus) build 5820 (current build).  It appeared in an earlier build but I can't recall which one.

HTH,
