Help & Support
1

Forgive me as i am barely know how to make a simple script for a button... But maybe someone can help?

I need a script to delete file 1 and 3 and rename file 2 (with an exported rename function, it looks like like Rename PRESET="preset name here") if all 3 files are selected. The order in which the operations are performed is not important.

Can someone help, please?

    var cmd = clickData.func.command;
    var tab = clickData.func.sourcetab;

    if (tab.selected_files.count != 3) return;

    cmd.RemoveFile(tab.selected_files(1));
    cmd.RunCommand('Delete QUIET');

    cmd.ClearFiles();
    cmd.AddFile(tab.selected_files(1));
    cmd.RunCommand('Rename PRESET="preset name here"');
