Hi there; simply cannot figure how to export a large collection of multiple-date shot photos (long travel trip) and wish to name them as:

Original date_sequence
So ex: 20200419_062 followed by 20200420_001 and not, as I seem to be getting, 20200419_062 followed by 20200420_063

Is that making sense?

Workflow: have all desired photos selected all in a bunch. I suppose I could manually select each date...

Is that the only way to do this?

Thanks!
Jeff
 
If you export them all in one go, the sequence numbering will continue. If you want the sequence number to fall back to 001 when the date is increased, then you'll have to export the images in batches by date.
