Post-import, I know I can rename all the files in a folder, to my custom preset syntax, by simply selecting all files and hitting F2. Works great. And I love that for folder/files, LightRoom infact DOES change the source files. All good. My syntax is essentially FolderName-Date-Sequence. Works fine, and a typical folder will have filenames such as TRAVEL-GREECE-20040612-0001 to TRAVEL-GREECE-20040622-0256
Right now I can do this manually, folder by folder, begging the questions:
Q1) Is there a way to do this one shot for the entire library and keep the sequence each folder independently so that each folder starts with 001? Right now if I select the whole library, it will rename the files, but it will sequence them as one large set from 001 onwards.
Q2) If I delete and start over, and re-import the whole thing using my preset, how will the sequence numbering work? Will it start at 001 for each folder or will re sequence then entire library as one set?
