Rename Dialog sequential Numbering downwards

[Leo]

Can be done easily with a script, if you don't mind it being a standalone button, and also each file (instead of the whole batch) having a separate undo entry:

• Reverse number, with count.dcf (2.2 KB)
• How to use buttons and scripts from this forum

Try on some disposable test files first, in case it doesn't do exactly what you need.

Script code for reference (contained in the .dcf file above):

function OnClick(clickData)
{
	var pad = 2;

	var cmd = clickData.func.command;
	cmd.deselect = false; // Prevent automatic deselection
	var selected = clickData.func.sourcetab.selected;

	var count = selected.count;
	var current = count;
	var wild = DOpus.FSUtil.NewWild();

	for (var eSel = new Enumerator(selected); !eSel.atEnd(); eSel.moveNext())
	{
		var item = eSel.item();
		var oldPath = wild.EscapeString(item.realpath);
		
		var newName = item.name_stem_m;
		newName += " P" + ZeroPad(current--, pad);
		newName += "_" + count;
		newName += item.ext_m;

		var cmdLine = 'Rename FROM="' + oldPath + '" PATTERN=* TO="' + newName + '"';
		DOpus.Output(cmdLine);

		cmd.ClearFiles();
		cmd.RunCommand(cmdLine);
	}
}

function ZeroPad(s,c)
{
	s = s + "";
	while(s.length < c)
	{
		s = "0" + s;
	}
	return s;
}
