Topic: %40 file names causing fail

Files with names in the form: %40Dscn####.jpg
Siren is pulling in the folder name as part of the file name and rename fails.
I'm trying to get rid of the %40
I've tried
Dscn%N.%e
%f("%40","@")
%f("\%40","@")
all failed


PS Do you have a target date for next release?

Re: %40 file names causing fail

Here too.
Windows, Siren 3.14

Leading % tricks Siren out and shows me "..\parentfoldername%filename.ext" in Current Name field.
Instead of "%filename.ext" only.


%f("%40","@")
22:26:57: Failed to rename "..\03-Test%40Dscn####.jpg" to "..\03-Test@Dscn####.jpg"
22:26:57: 1 error occurred

%f("%40","\\@")
22:28:25: Failed to rename "..\03-Test%40Dscn####.jpg" to "03-Test\@Dscn####.jpg"
22:28:25: 1 error occurred

But the Current Name is updated and shows the wanted Name now?
An F5 shows the truth again.

Re: %40 file names causing fail

Hello,

This is a known bug. It appeared in the 3.14 windows version.
If you use the 3.13 (download link) it should be fine.
To solve the "%XX" issue you can use the "#" modifier which has been created for this purpose.
In your case : %#f => @Dscn####.jpg
You can find details and examples in the help.

Regarding the release of the 3.15 : It is not finished yet and as I don't work much on it right now I can't give any date.

Regards,
