How to use Métamorphose-2:
- in the Picker tab, click the BROWSE button to select a path.
You may also enter in or paste a path and click the Refresh button.
The contents of this path will then be displayed.
- By default, the entire contents of the path are selected when a new path
is opened, you can (de)select files or folders by clicking on them. All selections will use
the same renaming rules. Any folders you select will not have their contents changed.
- In the - Renamer - tab, select which renaming operations you want to use by
double-clicking or drag-and-dropping them. You may then set the operation's parameters within the
main section that will appear in the center of the window. You may also change general operation
settings using the tool bar towards the top of the window, or by right-clicking an operation in
the Used list.
- Items will be previewed automatically as you change settings. If you do not
like this behavior, uncheck Auto Preview, and items will only be previewed
when the Preview button is clicked.
- Errors that will prevent the renaming operation from completing
succesfully are highlighted in red, warnings are in yellow.
The Errors/Warnings tab will display them.
- If preview looks OK then click the Go! button. At this point your
selections will be renamed.
- You have one undo level in case of mistakes.
Most parts of the program will display a help tip if you let your mouse
cursor linger a bit over it.
