The Single Action Home
This describes what you can see when you are looking at the single action home screen. This is the area of RenameMaestro
that lets you quickly choose just one action to carry out on your files and folders.
Available Actions List
This is a list of the different types of actions you can take. Examples of what you can do include 'Easy Rename', 'Insert
Text' and 'Change Case'. Each action can be used as many times as you like. See further in the help files for information
about individual actions.
Add & Remove Buttons
This is just ONE way to add new files and folders to the list on the left, in order to rename them. The first button lets
you add files, the second adds folders, and the third removes any items selected in the lists; this button will only be
enabled if you have selected some files in that list.
However, a far easier way to add and remove them is to simply drag any files and folders that you want from Windows Explorer
and drop them into the left hand list. To remove them, just select those you wish to get rid of and right click in the list;
you will see options to allow you to do what you like.
Adding Folders
When you add a folder to RenameMaestro, you will find that a window comes up called 'Folder Addition Question'. This gives
you many options about what to do with the folder and its contents:
- Just add the folder
- Add the folder and all files immediately within it (i.e. ignore all sub folders)
- Add the folder and all folders immediately within it (i.e. just the sub folders)
- Add the folder and everything immediately within it (i.e. files and folders one level in)
- Add the folder and everything within it at all levels (i.e. all files and all folders, including any sub-folders that
they may have - the whole lot).
You can also specify if you would like RenameMaestro to ALWAYS take this action from now on without questioning you again.
This decision can always be altered later on. Please see the 'Options' help section for more details.
Finally, you can change your mind and skip this file entirely.
About (& Registration), Help and Options
The 'About' button shows you summary information about RenameMaestro, and is also the place where you can register your
copy of the software. The help button will bring up the local help file on your machine. The options form shows a few tweaks
you can make to RenameMaestro to tailor it to the way you like to work. All are dealt with in the 'Options, Registration,
Help & About' help sections.
Multiple Actions Home Button
This button will take you to the multiple action home.
