I have a filesystem with images, that after the renaming, end up like so:
cat.jpg cat.jpg dog.jpg dog.jpg dog with toy.jpg dog with toy.jpg I know name collision rules exist, but they would number ALL of the files with collision with a single numbering system. What I'm looking for is for the filesystem to number each "pattern" with it's own numbering, like so: cat 1.jpg cat 2.jpg dog 1.jpg dog 2.jpg dog with toy 1.jpg dog with toy 2.jpg Is that possible? |

You should try for yourself before asking for help! The name collision rule does exactly what you are asking - apart from zero-padding the added numbers to 3-digits.
You can remove the leading zeros in a second pass using the Renumber method. The User Guide is no longer quite correct - ALL instances of a colliding name are decorated. The User Guide still states that the first instance will be left unchanged. |

I've tried with both Regex and script, but I'm not proficient on the last one. Maybe I've explained myself wrong: all instances of name collision are numbered, under ONE numbering sequence: so the collisions on my previous post would end up like this: cat.jpg cat 1.jpg dog.jpg dog 2.jpg dog with toy.jpg dog with toy 3.jpg ...instead of making a number sequence for each name pattern (e.g naming all the collisions of "dog.jpg" with it's own number sequence: dog.jpg, dog 2.jpg, dog 3.jpg, etc). I've tried, but specifiying a repeating name it's hell in regex, and I don't know how to make the script check for tha either. |

When I try this the result is: cat 001.jpg cat 002.jpg dog 001.jpg dog 002.jpg dog with toy 001.jpg dog with toy 002.jpg Are you using an old version of Advanced Renamer? Current version is 3.85 |
