Not quit what you are after. However if you are in the folder you can use the rename dialog to do this. This could be saved and then turned in to a button.

If you need to do files in multiple folders, you could turn on Flat View (or use Find Files) to get a list of them all, then use the Rename dialog as in wowbagger's post.

(A script could also do it without needing to turn on Flat View, but is more work to set up.)

it's a extra pain to flat view on and off. Please Leo give me the script to do same things. I just want to select target folders and click the button for done the job.

Is there any Learning source about writing script?

https://www.w3schools.com/js/

I find the w3schools JavaScript tutorial site very useful and refer to it on a regular basis in conjunction with the Scripting Reference in the DOpus Help. Press F1 then Reference then Scripting Reference.

Looking at @Leo's post he mentioned that as of Dopus V12 this is supported out of the box. No script needed. :+1:
