In times gone by, my recollection is that the export filename was
$(FILE_FOLDER)/Darktable_export/$(FILE_NAME).
I recently had cause to manually select an export destination, and since
then I have had to manually set the export filename.
Does anyone know if there is a way of automatically setting the export
filename, as above, when needed?
I have perused the manual and settings, but not seen anything that
helps.
my choice is: $(FILE_FOLDER)/DrkTbl/$(FILE_NAME)
and is set in the export module on a line just below "target storage"
when
"file on disk" option is selected.
raw images exist in "$(FILE_FOLDER)
directory "DrkTbl" is created if is does not exist when an image is
"exported"
"$(FILE_NAME)" is the image file name sans extension, in my case ".nef".
Thanks, I know that, perhaps I didn't explain myself clearly.
My question is relates to the fact that if I manually change to a
different export filename, whatever $(FILE_FOLDER) I then work in I have
to manually change the export filename back to
$(FILE_FOLDER)/Darktable_export/$(FILE_NAME). There doesn't seem to be a
default that one can simply select from a menu, it all has to be typed in
char by char, everytime you change your working folder.
Cheers,
