How to renumber files from other folders?
Right now, if I want to rename multiple folders, I get this:
FOREST -> Forest 001.jpg
Forest 002.jpg
Forest 003.jpg
SEA -> Sea 004.jpg
Sea 005.jpg
Sea 006.jpg
I want these folders to have their images renumbered, so SEA folder images start from 001 again (Sea 001.jpg, Sea 002.jpg, Sea 003.jpg). I can't find this option in the app, so I would appreciate the help.

Hi Drazen,
You need to use the <IncNrDir> tag for this. You didn't say what you are doing now, but I'm assuming you are using <IncNr>, which keeps numbering across all directories. Here's how you can do what you are asking:
First, in "Settings/Renaming" make sure the "Use zero padding in Inc Nr tags" box is checked.
NEW NAME method:
New name: <foldername> <incNrDir:001>
Apply to: Name
That should get you what you need.

Hey Delta Foxtrot.
You are right, I was using <IncNr>, and to be honest, didn't even notice there's <IncNrDir>. Thank you for the quick answer and the solution you immediately provided. This is one of the reasons I recommend Advanced Renamer everywhere I can :)
