Output Naming Tokens
Has anyone has found another way to do what I describe below and if not can Phase One please consider adding the token "Name" to the list of tokens that can be used to name the Output Sub Folder in the Process Recipe dialogue, please?
It's the one token that would be truly useful to me in Output Recipes.
I shoot a group of products (sometimes up to 40 or 50), tethered, in a single session. Multiple captures of each product.
For Next Capture Name I use a client-specific prefix then tokens "Name" and "Camera Counter" and define Name with a unique product name/code for each product, so I get captures named (as an example):
Client A Product-01 96543
Client A Product-01 96544
Client A Product-01 96544.........etc
Client A Product-02 96551
Client A Product-02 96552
Client A Product-02 96553.........and so on for all the products
I want all the selected captures from each product to be processed into a single sub-folder named with the name of that product - eg sub-folder "Product-01", sub-folder "Product-02"
At the moment I have to type in for each product, or copy and paste, the text I already entered in the Name dialogue. Not a huge deal you think but time consuming and unnecessary when shooting a lot of products.

Did you think about entering a sub-name in the file parameters and use the sub-name token ?
Is it a solution for you ?0 -
Thanks but whole point is I don't want to have to enter the product name/code twice.
