Rename duplicate on Robust Transfer

Post by tutils »

Would you consider adding the option to rename duplicate files in the Robust Transfer dialog? Currently, you can only overwrite or skip them. I'm including an example from ACDSee.

Well, well... What do you know. I downloaded version 1.2.0.0, and there it is! Boy, you are fast.  8)

Is it possible to let the user choose the file-name instead of doing it automatically?

I like both ideas:

1. Allow user to rename manually.
2. Show a thumbnail in the "Replace x with y?" dialog. Provide a user option to hide the thumbnail (in which case the arrangement will belike the present)

when loads of files are involved, renaming individually isn't practical
what you can do is opt to skip all files (no overwrites) and grab the log in the end which will tell you about all files skipped. With a little editing this log can be then loaded in a scrap window (using Actions | Import clipboard) and then you can check the files one by one
