Problem with using %folder% for string insertion

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...
