I have several file naming scripts depending on context. I use all of these every day, constantly. Currently I need to always go to Options → Select file naming script to first activate it and then I can use. I also often change Rename/Move/Save options before using Save button. This involves browsing menus and submenus and is not efficient for workflow I described.
I suggest the following to improve this:
- Toolbar combo box for quicker selection
- Separate toolbar checkboxes for Rename, Move and Save (also from the Options)
It would probably be good idea to have separate toolbar for this - “Save options” that would look something like this:
[script combo V] [x]Rename files [ ]Move files [x]Save tags [Save]
Better, checkboxes could also be buttons that activate one of the 3 actions individually:
[script combo V] [x][Rename files] [ ][Move files] [x][Save tags] [Save]
In this toolbar I could click button [Move files] to just do that without rename and save. [Save] button does all checked options as single action.
