Thank you for the key words! I'll do.

#1 Open - File name has . (dot). Causing to clear .extension.

Below code works fine until file name has .dot in it. And it causing to clear file .extension.
But of course I don't need to clear .extension of the file name.
Is there a chance to solve this issue?

(hope I explained well enough with my poor English)

Code: Select all

    foreach($item, <get selecteditemspathnames>, <crlf>, , "No files selected!") {
        $base = gpc($item, "base", 2, 0);
        $newName =  regexreplace($base, ".*\] (.*) \[.*", "$1");
        renameitem($newName, $item);
    }

What?

Your $base definition is nonsense, index and flags only apply to component, not to base

Something like

Code: Select all

$base    = regexreplace(gpc($item, "file"), "^(.+)\.[^.]+$", "$1");

?

[MaxEnrik]

The problem still the same and stays.

[highend]

Cool. Which problem exactly?
Show a real file name with path and how it should look like after your script has finished its work...

[MaxEnrik]

These are original file names.

Code: Select all

[audio_3(967)] Soundtrack final __ promo [a.udo].mp3
[Video_A(0489)] DESIGN Title sequence Part.3 __ Edition Universe [a.mpv].mkv

These are what I expect.

Code: Select all

Soundtrack final __ promo.mp3
DESIGN Title sequence Part.3 __ Edition Universe.mkv

rename() isn't smart enough for this, so just give the file to rename its extension...

Code: Select all

    foreach($item, <get selecteditemspathnames>, <crlf>, , "No files selected!") {
        $base    = regexreplace(gpc($item, "file"), "^(.+)\.[^.]+$", "$1");
        $newName = regexreplace($base, ".*\] (.*) \[.*", "$1");
        renameitem($newName . "." . gpc($item, "ext"), $item);
    }

[MaxEnrik]

It works perfect. Thank you!

[MaxEnrik]

I'd like to know differences of these two regex.

Code: Select all

    $newName = regexreplace($base, "\..*");
    $newName = regexreplace($base, "\.[^.]+?$");

[highend]

The first would remove everything (including) the first dot and everything after it
while the second one would only remove the last dot with "something" behind it (which can't be a dot)

[MaxEnrik]

Thank you for the explanations.

I would like to change Status Bar's text alignment from 'Center' to 'Left', is there a chance to do this?
(Status Bar when Full Screen Mode for preview images.)

[admin]

Not possible.

Why?

[MaxEnrik]

Because its so easy to tracking location and file names.

[admin]

I see what you mean. Next beta:

Code: Select all

    + Floating Preview: The right-click menu of the Floating Preview's Status 
      Bar now has a toggle "Left-Align Status Text". Does what it says.
