Hello,

is there a way to set the filename structure for rendered animation image sequences?
Right now it's name_framenumber_pass.extension

I would prefer the frame numbers to be the last thing before the .ext because otherwise Fusion doesn't recognise the sequence.

In standalone I have the option to change order, but could not find it in the Modo plugin.

Is it hidden too well, only accessible via command line, or not possible at all?

Cheers,
Marc

Hi Marc

Sorry, it is not currently possible to change the filename format in the plugin.

Thank you for the swift reply, Paul.
(Expect more questions down the line.)

For those interested, it is possible to move the frame number to the end of the filename using a tool called Advanced Renamer.

Bulk rename utility is also worth looking at, it's really powerful. You can do all kinds of crazy renaming.
