Batch renaming 14 – 313
Each operation is associated with specific parameters. When you select
a new operation of a certain category, the available options on the Type
pop-up change. Depending on the selected operation new parameters
may appear below the pop-ups. Each operation is explained later in this
chapter.
3. You can continue to add as many operations as you like which will be
added to the list in the top right corner of the dialog.
• Operations are executed in the order they appear in the list.
An operation can be disabled by deselecting it in the list. You can also delete selected op-
erations by using the Delete button, and use the up/down arrows to reorder the list.
• Each operation can also be associated with a comment (at the bottom of
the dialog).
The Rename dialog allows you to perform any type of text-based opera-
tion. Although there is virtually no limit to what you can do, many of the op-
erations are easy to understand and use.
The complex options are there for those who need them, but for many us-
ers the pre-defined operations will most probably suffice.
About the Preview section
This allows you to preview the effect of the renaming operations. Simply
type in a name in the “Preview” field, and the change is automatically re-
flected in the Result field. This preview is continuously updated.
• You can also click the Preview button at the bottom of the dialog to open
the Preview Renaming dialog.
Here you can see how all the selected file/clip/marker names will be changed before you
perform the operation. The right column shows the original name, and the right column the
new name.
