Rename Files / Overwrite Filenames Tue Dec 11, 2018 5:16 pm • by Rautnmountain
I would like to overwrite the file name of a file with Hazel´s function "Rename" and provide it with a fixed name and a sequential number. Somehow I don't succeed.



As an example... Hazel is supposed to be created from the filenames Schneemann.svg and Strand.svg,

No00000001Graphic.svg and

No00000002Graphic.svg.



In the setting, I have entered "Name" under Default "Nr" in the tag "Name" and "Grafik" in the 2nd tag "Name". But now the file is named like this...

Snowman00010001Snowman.svg



What exactly is the fault? Or is the type of renaming not possible?

Don't include the name at all if you don't want it in the resulting filename. Seems like you can just do "No(#)Graphic" where (#) is the counter attribute.
