Giving your photos meaningful names makes it significantly easier to keep tabs on them. Of course, renaming each and every photo by hand is not particularly practical, especially if you take dozens or even hundreds of photos each day. This is when '''digiKam'''’s <menuchoice>Rename</menuchoice> feature can come in rather handy. You can use it to define rather advanced renaming rules and apply them to multiple photos in one fell swoop.
Hvis du giver dine billeder meningsfulde navne, så bliver det betydeligt lettere at finde rundt i dem. Selvfølgelig er det ikke specielt praktisk at omdøbe hvert eneste billede ved håndkraft, især ikke da du kan tage snesevis eller endda hundreder af billeder om dagen. Det er her '''digiKam'''´s funktion <menuchoice>Omdøb</menuchoice> kan være nyttig. Du kan bruge den til at definere ret avancerede navngivningsregler og anvende dem på mange billeder på en gang.

Omdøbning af billeder med digiKam

Denne artikel blev oprindeligt bragt i Scribbles and Snaps og gengives med Dmitri Popovs tilladelse.

Hvis du giver dine billeder meningsfulde navne, så bliver det betydeligt lettere at finde rundt i dem. Selvfølgelig er det ikke specielt praktisk at omdøbe hvert eneste billede ved håndkraft, især ikke da du kan tage snesevis eller endda hundreder af billeder om dagen. Det er her digiKam´s funktion Omdøb kan være nyttig. Du kan bruge den til at definere ret avancerede navngivningsregler og anvende dem på mange billeder på en gang.

To put the Rename tool to practical use, select the photos you want to rename and press the Rename button in the main toolbar (you can also choose Image -> Rename or press F2). The Rename dialog window offers a vast range of renaming options which allow you to create complex renaming rules. But you might want to start with a simple rule that renames photos using the date and time data. To do this, press the Date & Time button and select Image from the Source drop-down list. This will pull the date and time info from the photo’s metadata.

Next, you have to specify a date/time format by selecting the appropriate item from the Format drop-down list. If none of the available formatting options satisfy you, select the Custom item, which lets you construct the formatting string manually. For example, the

yyyyMMdd-hhmmss

formatting string produces file names like

20100531-173501

and

20100701-110111

while the

MMM-dd-yyyy-dddd

string generates names like

May-31-2010-Monday

and

June-01-2010-Tuesday

The clever part is that you can immediately see the result of the renaming string right below the Format field. For a full list of available formatting options, check the official Qt documentation.

Besides date and time, the Rename dialog window offers a few other useful options. The Camera button, for example, allows you to add the camera model to the file name. This can be useful if you are using several cameras and you want to quickly identify photos taken with a specific camera. The Metadata button gives you access to EXIF and other photo metadata you can use in renaming rules.

Next to the field where you enter the renaming rule, there is a button that lets you specify so-called modifiers or actions that will be applied to the file names during the renaming operation. For example, using the Change Case modifiers, you can convert all file names to lower or uppercase, or capitalize the first letter. Here is a quick overview of other useful modifiers:

  • Trimmed – Removes leading, trailing, and extra spaces.
  • Unique – Adds unique numerical values to identical file names.
  • Replace – Performs search and replace. The modifier supports regular expressions.
  • Range – Lets you specify a specific fragment of the file name for the renaming rule. For example, the {5-} modifier in the [file]{5-} rule removes the first four characters of the file name, so IMAG0113.jpg, IMAG0351.jpg, and IMAG0573.jpg are renamed to 0113.jpg, 0351.jpg, and 0573.jpg

While digiKam offers a wide range of other features that can help you to keep tabs on your photos, it’s worth experimenting with the Rename tool. This way, you can quickly locate or identify specific photos even when digiKam is not running.
