Problem with using %folder% for string insertion

Crispin · Post by **Crispin** » 2006-04-17 07:40:45

Hi there, first of all, thank you for this amazing piece of software!

Using the "String Insertion" action, I'm trying to append the folder name to the beginnings of the names of a whole bunch of files but instead of it appending the folder name it appends the filename instead.

Example of how it should behave:

6032\Trk24.wav --> 6032\6032Trk24.wav

Example of how it's actually behaving:

6032\Trk24.wav --> 6032\Trk24.wavTrk24.wav

Again, I'm using %folder% and not %name%. I also tried using %folder/\/% as indicated in the helptext but to no avail.

Thanks for any suggestions or a bug-fix if this is a bug!

Best Regards,
Crispin

Hi,
It is not "folder / \ /", it was "folder" followed by a italic N. Just after that it is said that N has to be replaced by a number, so %Folder1% in your case...
