Command that opens advanced rename and pastes the clipboard

[Birba]

I would like to create a command that opens the advanced rename dialog and pastes the file names from the clipboard (multiple lines), so I can check what I pasted

I was thinking of something like this but it pastes only the first line in the clipboard to all the selected files.

Rename ADVANCED PATTERN="*" TO="{clip}" IGNOREEXT

Seems to be a feature request.

I don't know, I thought I was doing something wrong, the command already works, but only with one file. With multiple selections and multiple lines in the clipboard it doesn't do what I expected.

Advanced renaming already has a corresponding button, but it seems to have no parameters.

Do you want the clipboard content to go here?

I don't think that's possible.

The TO parameter always fills in this field, which can only hold one line:

Exact !! Now every time, I have to open the dialog, open the clipboard drop-down menu and select paste. I wanted to reduce the steps..

You could use

Rename ADVANCED PATTERN=* TO=* IGNOREEXT

followed by accelerator keys: ALT-CP.

More automation would probably require something like Autohotkey.

You can also use rename preset.
Save as preset named "Clip":

function OnGetNewName(getNewNameData)
{
	if (DOpus.GetClipFormat() != 'text')
		return
	var clipText = DOpus.GetClip('text');
	var clipTextArray = clipText.split('\r\n');
	var tab = getNewNameData.tab;
	var selected = tab.selected;
	if (clipTextArray.length < selected.count)
	    return
	
	var item = getNewNameData.item;
	for (i = 0; i < selected.count; i++)
	{
	    if (selected[i] + "" == item + "")
		    return clipTextArray[i] + item.ext;
	}
}

Rename ADVANCED PRESET="Clip"

Thank you!!!
Basically it works, the problem arises if there are illegal characters in the clipboard.
With built-in function when I paste it, Dopus corrects them from /\\:*?<>\|"" to ___;#!()_-''
Using the script in some cases generates subfolders

[WKen]

Maybe the text needs to be escaped?

function OnGetNewName(getNewNameData)
{
	if (DOpus.GetClipFormat() != 'text')
		return
	var wld = DOpus.FSUtil.NewWild();
	var clipText = wld.EscapeString(DOpus.GetClip('text'), "r");
	var clipTextArray = clipText.split('\r\n');
	var tab = getNewNameData.tab;
	var selected = tab.selected;
	if (clipTextArray.length < selected.count)
	    return
	
	var item = getNewNameData.item;
	for (i = 0; i < selected.count; i++)
	{
	    if (selected[i] + "" == item + "")
		    return clipTextArray[i] + item.ext;
	}
}

why can't I make script work?

[WKen]

@WKen

	if (clipTextArray.length < selected.count)
	    return

Maybe your clipboard has fewer lines of text than the selected items?

[fkast]

nope

[WKen]

If you just pasted the script, you need to refresh.

[fkast]

no, sorry

Working here with Opus 13.0.45 and I'm out of ideas.
