Placeholder for collection name in a file export dialog.

I would like to be able to export pictures in subdirectories with names based on the name of the collection they are in. I cant find any file name place holders relating to collection names. Is this possible?

You may want to try it first - it's Lr3-only, and publish-only (does not support exporting via regular export dialog box) - if publish-only is OK, consider his Folder Publisher or Collection Publisher instead.
Is publish-only OK? Are you interested in exported folder hierarchy which matches collection hierarchy? or are you interested in filenames with collection name in it, or both?
Anyway, some other options which may suit, depending (written by me, and offered for free):
* TreeSyncPublisher
* Exportant

File Export Renaming Problem

I want to export collections of files from Lightoom.
I want to rename the newely exported files, but I want to use the same file number suffix as the original file.
I also want to embed the oringal file name in the metadata of the newly exported file.
The problem is that, when I go into the File->Export dialog i.e. the "Filename Template Editor" the orginal "file number suffix" is not showing up in what would be the newly created filename. The orginal file number suffix does not appear to be part of the metadata.
The current filename on disk does however have the file number suffix as part of the name.
However it does not seem possible to extract part of the current file name (i.e. the number suffix) on export.
If I rename the files using a number sequence then adding or removing a file will change the sequence on subsequent exports of the collection.
(Not something I want to do, since it would then be difficult to keep track of the images used originate the exported file, if I updated the collection.)
Renaming all my original files is not a viable option since there are too many of them and different exported files may be in more than one collection.
*Any suggestions as to how to get the file naming I want for the exported files, i.e. "placename-oringal file number suffix"?
(Given the file number suffix is missing from the metadata)
*Also I would like to include the existing file name in the metadata of any new file name.
Any suggestions on how to automate this?

No this will not work. My naming method is quite useful for me, but not useful for potential buyers.
When I export collections I want to simplify the names.

Yes I know, usually it is sufficient, but in this case it does not do what I want.

Not sure I completely agree here. My naming method works quite well for organising images and for processing and so on.
Now since I have collections spanning multiple directories and so that I want to export the files with a simplified filename.
I expected to be able to do this using the file name editing template.
The BreezeBrowser renamer is much more flexible than the Lightroom filename template editor, so I may end up using that.
However it will be messy and add a few extra steps. i.e. export to a new directory using the existing filename. Then use Breezebrowser to rename the files by extracting the "file number suffix" from the original filename and making sure there is sufficient information in the new filename to create a one-to-one mapping. Then upload the new files to the website.
I stil don't see how to get the original file name into the metadate of the new filename though?l
Really I should be able to do all this in Lightroom.

Gnome 3.16 file chooser dialog

I have some questions about the file chooser dialog in Gnome 3.16
I see at the gnome site that it states there is now a search button in the file chooser dialog. I see that.
https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-not … re.html.en
However, it used to be possible that when this dialog was open, you could type in the file/directory list to quickly take you to a folder or file. This does not seem to work any more... It still works in Thunderbird for example when attaching a file (different dialog box, I know)
For example, if you had three folders in the open or save dialog of gedit or eog
alpha
bravo
charlie
If you typed "c", it would select the charlie folder.
Was it intentional that this possibility be removed? Does anyone else see what I see?
Thanks

Good evening. When I try to rename a master file or export a master file, it only allows 9 spaces for my new name, even though Aperature 3 allows many more spaces than that for version names. This creates a lot of problems and headaches for me.

Good evening. When I try to rename a master file or export a master file, Aperature 3 only recognizes the first 9 spaces for raw .NEF files, even though it easily uses twice that many spaces for version names. I have a system in place that works really well for me, wherein by changing the file name I can recognize what's important to me just by glancing at the file name, no matter what system it is in, I do not have to open or mouse over anything to know what the file is. My files also arrange themselves in order no matter what file system they are in. Can someone please tell me if there is a setting, or something I am doing wrong, that prevents me from using a longer Master file name. I can't be the only person who would like to have his Master File names correspond to the name that appears in the Aperature library, and would like to use at least 16 spaces (numbers, letters, etc.)

Hi Frank,
As you suggested, I am attaching several screen shots. In the first one you can see how I set up my preset. I used "Custom Name" and "Counter" with a dot between the two drag ins, followed by "D90". I also have a dot to seperate the 8 digits in the Custom Name and make it easier to read.
I then click "OK" which takes us to the second screen shot. Here you can see that in the Example File Name everything looks perfect, and you can see I have clicked on "Apply to Master Files".
In the third screen shot you can see that the version in my library did in fact change correctly. With the "mouse over" pop up screen you can see, however, that the Master File name was changed to "1933.1017.NEF". It failed to carry the "12D90" and if I go to where my masters are stored that is exactly what the name was changed to.
In the fourth screen shot I attempt to export the master. You can see how my "Version Name" is set up.
And finally on the 5th screen shot you see in the File Name Example the name "1933.1017.NEF" once again, which when I export the master is exactly how the name will appear. Since I will export more than one file at a time , a (1) and a (2) etc., will appear at the end of the names because all the files are being given the same "1933.1017.NEF" name.
I hope this reply does a better job of clarifying my problem. I am anxious to see if this is something I simply misunderstood, or if I am simply doing something wrong.
Thanks,

Bug v4.0 - no input field for file name in export dialog

Hello,
I run a query, right click in the result grid and choose "Export". There is no input field to provide a file name. I can only export to the default file.
Version 4.0.0.13 on XP
Edit: Seems to be an issue with the settings (maybe those migrated from 3.2.2). When I install without migrating settings I get the full dialog. I will try some combinations and update this post.
Edit: I installed again without migration my settings. When I set the preferences manually I cannot reproduce the bug. Maybe some bug in the import for the preferences? Maybe it only happens on German XPs.

CS5 exporting TIF from EPS appends artboard name to the file name

We have recently upgraded to CS5 from CS3. We routinely create EPS files, then export them to TIF's for final use. Previously I used the CROP MARKS tool to set the specific visual size of the art. Without the crop marks, when exporting to a TIF the exported file clips to the edges of the bounding box. In the event I have vertical lines at the outside limits of the drawings they stand the possibilitiy of getting "clipped" or dropped off when the resulting TIF is printed or placed in another document. I understand the ARTBOARDS have replaced the crop marks setting. If I create an art board, rename it as MYTAK4 ARTBOARD and then export from the EPS to a TIF, having the radio button "artboard" checked, the resultant TIF file becomes FILENAME_MYTAK4_ARTBOARD.tif. With the hundreds of files that we create and continually revise, it is important that the any files we revise, maintain the same file name, not another file with same base name, with an appended artboard name tacked on before the TIF extension. The only solution I have arrived at is to RENAME the file once the TIF is exported to remove the unwanted artboard portion of the name. Anyone have a better solution?

Hi,
We just released this tool: FERRY (http://ferry.thedamarmada.com). It does exactly what you want and a little bit more.
I think it's worth it a try.
It comes with a free demo that will export 5 layers.
Take a look and let us know if it's what you need.
It could be easily tweaked.

Ability to create a collection from a text file containing the names of the pictures

1 thing that would be very good is the ability to create a collection / quick collection from a text file that contains the names of the picture we want in that collection...
The reason for that is when i receive an order from a customer typicaly 100-200 different pictures (i'm a wedding photographer), i ask my customer to send me an excel spread sheet with all the name or number of the picture thay want with size & quantity...
I would like to be able to use that file as an input for a batch job that would add all those files to a collection "customer order" instaid od adding them 1 by 1... it would save me lots of time and would prevent some errors in the order...
I am currently able to do that with the help of a small utility (Useful File Utility) is the name... with the other RAW converter i use... Bibble

Well, it is workflow software, true, but it's really focussed on image development. What you're proposing would necessarily make the primary focus be on the business angle, I suspect.
If you're talking about tools to help customers sit down and pick what they want for manual processing later, that's one thing - but going the rest of the distance to order processing and fulfillment would be out of scope, at least in my view. The reason is that there is just so much room for potential variation in how this gets conducted that I can't see how Adobe could possibly satisfy every pro with one implementation. Even just dealing with all of the possible payment vendors is a hugely problematic area.
I agree with Don; a third-party plugin via the upcoming SDK might be a distinct possibility, particularly if it were for a "plus services" solution in which the plugin were designed to work with a specific fulfillment vendor. THAT could work quite nicely, and the plugin might even be free (in return for giving the vendor your business, of course).
In other words, it's not that I see it as a bad idea, it's just that I don't think it belongs in the "core" of LR. This is something that is best dealt with using the SDK so that differences in processes can be allowed for.

I changed the captions for my family photos to include names, but when I exported the photos to make DVD's for family members, the old captions were there and not the new ones. How can I make a DVD to include the new captions with names?

I have labeled old family photos with names that I would like to share at a family reunion via DVD. When I export the photos to make the DVD, the old photo labels are back rather than the new labels with names. Can I export the photos with the new titles?

iPhoto shows you these Titles but the Finder shows you Filenames
If you export (File -> Export) you'll get the Export dialogue. Note the option at FileName to use the Title as filename for the exported photo

Get Collection Names for "emctl control agent runcollection"-command

Hi,
I have a really simple question, but until now I didn't find an answer by myself.
At the moment I test a lot with provisioning software and databases with Cloud Control.
When I install an agent on a new provisioning target machine it takes about 15 minutes (schedule of the metric collection) until cloud control knows everything about this host. (OS-version, etc.)
The provisioning will fail before cloud control knows these information because of several checks.
So I wanted to execute the collection of this information manually. Oracle Support told me to execute "emctl control agent runcollection <target_name>:<target_type> <collectionName>" on the target machine/agent.
So far so good, but how to get the correct Collection name? (e.g. I want to discover the information about the host which you can see when you navigate to a host home under the section configuration on the left side. ... Operating System, File System(GB) , Memory Size(MB) )
Until now I was not able to find the correct collection names in MOS or in the Documenation.

Hi,
I think this is really difficult to find but I think the correct Collection for my problem is:
"ll_host_config" (not tested yet if it solvs my problem but the command itself works)
I found it here:
1. connect to your OMS-Server (or one OMS server if you have an multi OMS environment)
at first I tried to find default_collection directories (--> find $ORACLE_HOME -name default_collection)
2. One directory is "$ORACLE_HOME/ccr/sysman/plugins/default/agent/default_collection" (my OMS ORACLE_HOME is /u00/app/oracle/product/MW_EM12102/oms)
3. I opened the file $ORACLE_HOME/ccr/sysman/plugins/default/agent/default_collection/host.xml and found the section
<TargetCollection META_VER="4.1" TYPE="host">
    
    <CollectionItem AGENT_MODE="GC,OCM" CONFIG="TRUE" NAME="ll_host_config" TIMEOUT="3600" UPLOAD_ON_FETCH="TRUE">

When exporting files to web pages Aperture keeping losing files, so for instance, if I choose to export 600 images to a new web page, it might do 524 images but not the full 600. I've tried resetting Aperture, it's the latest version etc etc. Help please!

If anyone can help me with this I would be seriously grateful.
When exporting mutliple files to web pages Aperture keeping losing files, so for instance, if I choose to export 600 images to a new web page, it might make 524 pages but not the full 600. I've tried resetting Aperture and its persmission and am using the latest version of 3.
I have 3600 images which I need to upload as sublfolders, each with their own URL and at the moment Aperture is dropping of anything from 1 to 90 images.
This is critical as people need to see each and every on of these images online. So if a file has 600 photos in it, Aperture should make a URL with 600 full image pages. And this is what it's not doing. On small files, say 30 or so it seems to work well, it's when it gets to more than that the problem starts.
I've used Aperture in the past under previous versions and not had this problem.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.

Hi Jack,
Thanks for responding (as it seems as though no one else has been able to provide any insight as of yet)! Not sure if you saw my recent post, but the version of Aperture on the 2008 MacBook has been upgraded to 3.1.2 (not sure how; I bought it in 2009, but only have OS X 10.5.8... which apparently can't house 3.1.2 of Aperture, but hey, like many other anomalies i'm encountering, I'm no longer surprised!). I am unable to upgrade it any further, as it warns me that my OS X does not fit the requirements. I exported the projects as libraries; however, like I posted before, apparently these are from too old of a version for the new Aperture (3.3.1) to handle and import.
It's getting to the point where I'd almost pay to upgrade the OS X on my previous MacBook (10.5.8) to something newer in order to THEN update Aperture to a newer version; however, my previous MacBook simply cannot handle this (the specs are awful -- hence my decision to save up and upgrade to the newest MBP with Retina).
I've spent hours upon hours transferring files, libraries as projects, previews, versions, even masters (though, apparently some of them aren't accessible?) with no luck. I've rebuilt the library and reprocessed everything. And this is all after having to return one MBP already since Aperture 3.3.1 is glitch-y as it is, and froze everything for having a "managed library". So, now that I know that I have to deal with a referenced library in Aperture... I just need to actually transfer my previous library to my new one (hopefully WITH adjustments since these are years worth of photos and work).
Again, any help is appreciated. I've lost enough sleep, time, and vision health over this at this point.
Also, I know Migration Assistant is an option, I was told that it wouldn't work properly anyway because of the different operating systems, and the potential for problems.

What is the best method to parse a java file for function names

st="class";
while (StreamTokenizer.TT_EOF != tokenizer.nextToken ())
   if (StreamTokenizer.TT_WORD == tokenizer.ttype)
    if (tokenizer.sval.toLowerCase().equals(st.toLowerCase())){
    System.out.print (tokenizer.nextToken() + " "); //prints the class name on the console
    fileOut.print (tokenizer.sval + " "); //prints the class name to a file
}The above program searches a .java file for classes. I want to modify it so that it searches for function names as well. After several hours of figuring out various ways to do it with StreamTokenizer, I still havnt found a way. There seems to be no way to go back, i.e. no previousToken method, in StreamTokenizer.
Is it possible to do search for using StreamTokenizer, and are there easier ways of doing it?

Simple string tokenizing isn't an effective way to do this. You probably want something like ANTLR.

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File - Export - Album name with number).

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?
