Sequence Variable - Auto Reset?
« on: November 05, 2007, 08:02:35 PM »
Greetings,

One thing I do is plenty of headshots for sports teams and find myself renaming the files using lastname_sequence#.  Unless I'm missing something, a step I find tedious is to constantly have to manually reset the sequence counter...only a couple of extra clicks, I know, but when dealing with hundreds of heads it does get annoying.  Any way to have an option to have the counter automatically reset when choosing a new renaming thread?

Cheers,

Mike

If you hold down the "Modifier" key (Option on Mac OS X, Shift on Windows) then the "Set {seqn}..." button will change to Reset {seqn}.  So it's just a single click then.

HTH,
