Regular expressions - picture names

[mpurcarea]

Hy,

I want to use Multiple rename tool to rename pictures from say image-1.jpg .. image-17.jpg to image-01.jpg .. image-17.jpg for natural sequencing in TC or image viewer. Does anyone know what regular expression to use (or any other method)? For instance I've tryed to use Search for: (\d{2}) and Replace with: 0$1 for prefixing groups of 2 digits with one 0 but the 3 digit groups are modified too. Any suggestions?

Just include the Characters in front and after the numbers into your regular expression. Thus:
Search for: -(\d{2})\.
Replace with: -0$1\.

You can actually work it out in the current situation without regular expressions. Just select only the files with the one-digit names then fill in the search field "-" and replace with "-0". (without of course the double-quotes)

mpurcarea,

natural sequencing in TC

BTW: Try SortUpper=2 in wincmd.ini.

Someone may come across the case where after filename there are numbers without any separator. Then replace (with RegEx):
(\d{1,})\. into -$1\. to add "-" before digits
And then use
-(\d{1})\. into -0$1\. to rename one digit into two digits
or -(\d{2})\. into -0$1\. to rename two digit number into three

2Hacker - Thnx, YES! adding SortUpper=2 to wincmd.ini, section [Configuration] helps.
