rename file on base of foldername

[rice1973]

Hi Oleg,

I need to rename a fil in a folder with a prefix of the foldername.
Example;

foldername :
18765-266.10.300

files in the folder;
img_0001.jpg
img_0002.jpg
img_0003.jpg
img_0004.jpg
img_0005.jpg

New name of files must be;
18765-266.10.300-001.jpg
18765-266.10.300-002.jpg
18765-266.10.300-003.jpg
18765-266.10.300-004.jpg
18765-266.10.300-005.jpg

I cannot get the name extracted form the foldername and past it as prefix .

Can you help?

Regards,

Maurice

For info;

There is only one map in the folder (every time it has another name)

I tried to work with;

{ExtractFilePath(C:\Folder\File.ext)} Cannot get it working.

Look at my example below
Pay attention onto step #6
use the expression
{ExtractFileName({ExtractFilePath({filename})})}
In other words you need extract file part from full path of the file

Hi Oleg,

Sorry my explenation was not enough i see. I will explain a bit better .

The folder/file structure is like this;

C:\3dmap\18658-266.10.288\images2d\img_0001.jpg

The file has to be renamed to;

C:\3dmap\18658-266.10.288\images2d\18658-266.10.288-0001.jpg

The foldername now containing 18658-266.10.288 is different each time.

[Oleg]

in tis case try this expression:
{ExtractFileName({ExtractFilePath({ExtractFilePath({FileName})})})}

Variable FileName should contain the full path of the file.

See the example (step #5):

Hi,

I run the task, in the attachment the display message. But there is no filename changed...?

And is it possible to "read" the variable filename form the path? so the number "18658-266.10.288" because that is evertime different.

[Oleg]

1-st line the source filename
2-nd file name only
3-d - the necessary folder name
4-th - new file name

Look at the task in the task editor.
You can set to vatiable FileName any new full path of the file and the task will parse it.

[rice1973]

I understand that.

But it does not rename the file in the folder.

It works. I tested it on the folder:
D:\Temp\images\18765-266.10.300\images2d\

this folder contain files:
img_0001.jpg
img_0002.jpg
img_0003.jpg
img_0004.jpg
img_0005.jpg

After running the task:
18765-266.10.300-0001.jpg
18765-266.10.300-0002.jpg
18765-266.10.300-0003.jpg
18765-266.10.300-0004.jpg
18765-266.10.300-0005.jpg

Hi,

I almost had the solution.

Works fine.

But now i need the number 18658-266.10.288 ( in line 5 "File Loop") as a variable, so it has to be read from the foldername. Because everytime it runs it is a different number.

I cannot get that working
