Rename Objects Dialog

The Rename Objects dialog allows you to add prefixes, suffixes, and incremental numbers to names. You can also remove certain characters, include timestamp information, and more.

In the Pool window, right-click a clip and select Edit - Rename Objects, or select a clip and select Edit > Rename Objects.

Each of the fields found in the left section of the Rename Objects dialog can be used to add an element to the name for each object.

Depending on the selected element, different renaming options are available on the right side of the dialog. The following elements are available:

Original Name

The original name given to the object. There are options to remove all numbers, non-alpha numerics, or only numbers at the beginning or end of the name.
