I have looked through the settings, I have looked through the INI file and I couldn't find anything remotely close so here we go It would be very nice if the following tweaks could be added:
1. Disallow spaces in a file name upon a rename.
Stemming from (1) we have 2 consequential tweaks:
a) Auto-replace spaces with a specified character (dot, dash, underscore etc)
b) Auto-trim any possible space before the dot separating a file name and extension
I hope it's not too much to ask

Re: Tweaks for renaming with dots and spaces
IMHO, I think it may be...given that we have the "Rename Special > Spaces to _" and other options to perform this function.ivan wrote:I hope it's not too much to ask
And I do believe that your request could be satisfied by a UDC and/or script.
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!

Re: Tweaks for renaming with dots and spaces
The tweaks are intended to fine tune the options that are available and far easier for mej_c_hallgren wrote:IMHO, I think it may be...given that we have the "Rename Special > Spaces to _" and other options to perform this function.

Re: Tweaks for renaming with dots and spaces
you can already replace spaces with '_'
right-click / rename special / 'Spaces to _'
under user / manage commands you can also setup your own rename rules.
or, regular expression would work. eg: ( ) > -
will change all the spaces to a dash

Re: Tweaks for renaming with dots and spaces
Hello, I am not familiar with the program and cannot seem to figure out your instructions. I need exactly what you are showing. I want a right click on file/files and then rename special but use dashes.
Can you explain how to do this?
Thank you

That's not possible, you can't modify that XY context menu
