Description Thomas Bach 2021-04-18 16:46:04 UTC
I try to rename all my pictures like camera modell datetime.

Because i have many pictures from different people, the datetiem settimgs are offen incorrect or there are many pictures with the same datetime offset. I Try to change the exifdates of theses pictures with a offset of one second. After my last question, thats works good in the datetime changer with the intrevall option. But i must allways leave the renaming process, find the right picures, change the exif datetime and go return to the renaming process.

It will be great, if i could select theses pictures sirectly in the renaming process, change the exif infos and can work with the next pictures in the renaming.

I think you will have to find a different strategy for renaming. We can't possibly merge the Time Adjust Tool with the Renaming Tool. Have you ever tried renaming with the unique operator {unique}? Then filter the images accordingly, edit them with the Time Adjust Tool and rename them again.

Sorry, what did you mean with the unique operator?

Comment 3 Thomas Bach 2021-04-18 17:46:18 UTC
Is the advanced renaming tool different from the renaming toll (F2) ?
Comment 4 Thomas Bach 2021-04-18 17:47:07 UTC
Not sure, which workflow you mean
Comment 5 Thomas Bach 2021-04-19 11:56:14 UTC
Meanwhile, i found the uniqe operator. But there is another problem. How can i filter about that operator?

If i use them a number with prefix _ is added to the name like Canon 28_01_01 10_00_00_1. Ok, i could filter with text _1. But there are many files also with the _1 in the regular name.

The filter tab in the right sidebar understands wildcards since digiKam-7.2.0. So, for example, it is possible: *_?.jpg

Ok. I will try it. But if ha have more than 9 pictures with the same datetime, i got two digits at the end.

Will it be possible to add an option to the uniqe attribut to add any text like double?
