I often use Advanced rename in "Find And Replace" mode with "Ignore extension" unchecked. However, every time I open it, it reverts to "Standard Wildcard Rename" and "Ignore extension" checked.
Is there a way for it to remember its previously used settings? I played with Presets + Favorite a bit but it didn't help. I think it would make sense to remember its previously used status.
You can click the button to recall the previously performed rename settings. Alternatively, change the command to Rename PRESET=last to automatically recall the previous settings.
Thanks, I tried the latter. I assume you mean editing the Rename toolbar button, and changing Function: Rename to Rename PRESET=last.
This does retain the settings, but it also retains the previously used file names in Find/Replace. So, the file selections made prior to pressing the Rename button are essentially ignored. It works, but becomes more difficult to use.
