A simple rename button for Find and Replace dialogue

To reduce mouse clicks I'm using a command button to rename files that I ahve already selected. What I need is for the dialogue to open with the default Preset setting selected as "Find and Replace" instead of "standard rename". My button opens the advanced dialogue ok, but not the preset? Any help on how to do this?

I have tried many configurations of settings, but clearly don't know what I am doing past the worn "rename": eg
Rename
Rename ADVANCED
Rename ADVANCED FINDREP .
Rename FINDREP/O

..all these open the dialogue correctly, but not with my preset selected..

On a related issue, what is the meaning of all the /O. /K, /M etc switches etc that are in the manual after most commands? I have consulted the manual and searched the help file many times and I cannot find this simple information. Seems to me to require some prior knowledge that I don't "get".

Rename PRESET=findrep ADVANCED

The switches are detailed on the first page of the Raw Commands section of the help file.

Jon this is perfect. Thanks so much. I don't see how I could have worked that out myself (the part about adding PRESET=).

Steve. Thanks also. I now found it. The trick for me was after searching the help file, how to then find the first page of that particular section. There is a tiny blue text at the top of each page in most sections that I never saw before (too small for my tired old eyes). In this case it says "Opus Raw Commands". Clicking takes me to page one of that section. There was the list. Thanks

..still love the DOpus after all these years.... :slight_smile:

The advanced command editor has dropdown buttons which list all commands and their possible arguments, it's pretty easy to use this to find options...

As for help, clicking on items in the Contents list on the left hand side goes to the first page of each section. Or you can expand them and go directly to specific pages.

The command is documented, its various arguments are documented, so... I do :slight_smile:
