Counter Token not working in Watermark

Keith Spurlock

I want the photo numbers to show as watermarks on my proofs to make it easier for clients to order from my website.  (not the long photo numbers my camera creates) i.e. 001-700 in numerical order.

This is how I attempted it in the Export window:

I selected "Text" for kind of watermark.  

I chose the tokens, "3-Digit Counter" - "Copyright"

When I clicked export, no numbers showed on the proofs, just the copyright.

I tried again using just the "3-Digit Counter" alone. (no copyright)

Nothing shows on the proofs. 

How can I get the token digit-counter to add numbered watermarks to my proof like it does with renaming files?

Thank you.  (Capture One Pro 23 build 16.1.2.20) 03.29.2023

  To add numbered watermarks to your proofs in Capture One Pro 23, select "Text" as the kind of watermark and choose the token "3-Digit Counter" in the Export window. Make sure the "Layer" option is set to "On" and adjust the size and position of the watermark as desired. When you export the images, the watermark should appear with the numbered counter.

  Thank you for your reply.  I've done all that except for the "Layers" option.  I do not see that option anywhere in the Export window.  Where is it located and how to I enable it?

  Thanks :-)

  Hi, I've also have the same problem, counter don't work and I see only "EmptyName" on every exported picture. I also don't see any "layer" option to enable.

  I think the post with the mention of the Layer option is a spurious spam post - I see that it now has had a spam link added to it.
