Subject: RE: [gislist] Picture re-naming, hotlinks, directory structures
Date:  10/29/2004 03:20:01 PM
From:  Ed Dowding



I may be missing the point, but http://www.irfanview.com/ does sequential
batch renaming.

And it's free. :)

:: Listers (or those that have stuck around...)
::
:: Here's my dilemma (victim of success + poor planning): we
:: have a series of
:: projects that involve pictures of locations associated with
:: shapefile points
:: (hot linking). The poor planning part was that we now have
:: multiple large
:: area projects done, but for each one, we have numerically
:: sequenced the
:: photo Id numbers to match the Id number in the attribute
:: table (again,
:: strictly for the purposes of hot linking). This works just
:: fine for a
:: single project area, but when we want to view all project
:: areas in a single
:: geodatabase, well, the daunting task of renaming all the
:: photos so we have
:: only unique names is, well, unthinkable. I am looking for a
:: way to rename
:: "en masse" all the photos for a given project area to
:: something more "smart"
:: (like alpha-numeric, etc. etc.) so that I can put all these
:: location records
:: in a geodatabase and have them find the correct photo when
:: the hotlink
:: button is used. I really have created quite a headache for
:: myself, and hope
:: that I am not a pioneer in this backwards approach and that
:: someone has
:: developed a tool to remedy this....
::
:: TIA, Anthony
::
:: Ps. If no one has done this, if there are smart people who
:: want to get paid
:: for developing it, let's talk...
