Date
Type:
Date Rename
Date
renaming allows the addition of a date string to each filename.
The details controlling the Date rename function are presented in
a separate dialog that appears when Date
is selected as the rename type.
The Date rename function has three modes which can be selected below the rename type combo box:
-
Custom Date
- Custom date allows the user to specify a date from the adjacent date picker.
-
File
- Take the file creation date for each file. The value in the DatePicker is ignored.
-
EXIF
- Take the date from the EXIF information (if present) for each file. The value in the DatePicker is ignored.
All modes allow the selection of format from one of six predefined possibilities,
or you can create your own format using the Custom field and '?' button for assistance.
The location of the date can also be set:
- Append will place the date string at the end of the filename. Note: To keep the original extensions enable the Hide Extensions
option.
- Prepend will place the date string at the beginning of the filename.
- Replace All will remove the current filename and use the date string instead.
