Hi, Yes, I know about the "create unique filename" setting. I want to export the images with the same name always, overwriting the old export if it has been done earlier. In that kind of scenario the $(VERSION) number would be nice to be added to the target storage path because I don't want multiple exports of the same image with a running number in the filename.
I tried this kind of funny approach but the variables do not seem to support nesting: Storage path: * $(FILE_NAME)$($(VERSION/#0/)-_$(VERSION)) Exported image filenames (version 1 is a virtual copy): * Image$(1-_1).jpg * Image$(-_0).jpg As you can see the result was not what was intended. What I was trying there was that if the $(VERSION) is "0", then it is replaced with empty string. And then if that result is empty, then use the default instead that is "_$(VERSION)". -Jarkko On Wed, Sep 5, 2018 at 8:27 PM Patrick Shanahan <[email protected]> wrote: > * Jarkko Toivonen <[email protected]> [09-05-18 13:19]: > > Hello all, > > > > I would like to add the version number to the exported image file name > with > > prefix "_" but only if the version is bigger than 0.
