Just curious…
does anyone have a renaming workflow when getting passes from 3Dcg artists from projects with extra long naming conventions.
ex. project name_shot#_camera#_carfrontbumper_layerpass_etc..####.tif
I get alot of passes and was wondering if anyone has a trick to rename the loaders in the flow to make life easier or is this still somewhat a manual task? Thanks[/list]
Scripting can automate this task. For example,
lds = comp:GetToolList(false,”Loader”) for i, ld in pairs(lds) do ld:SetAttrs({TOOLB_NameSet=true}) end
Will rename the loaders back to loader 1, loader 2 etc. This is run from the console tab.
To go further this script could be extended to parse the long name and only take a certain string from that name and then rename the loader.
