: Fireworks batch renaming doesn't work (remove '.fw') I'm handling a lot of company images (300+) at various resolutions (16, 48, 256) and the appended '.fw' is becoming a huge waste of time

Posted in: #AdobeFireworks #BatchProcessing

I'm handling a lot of company images (300+) at various resolutions (16, 48, 256) and the appended '.fw' is becoming a huge waste of time for me.

After creating the images at the 3 resolutions I use the extremely useful batch process built-in to Adobe Fireworks. However, while the exporting function works fine, the renaming one doesn't. I ask it to replace '.fw.png' with .png' but it doesn't work.

Any idea why? and if there's a fix?
I have a suspicion that it's because it part of the file extension.

The image below shows the fields available to specify the batch. The 'With' field doesn't allow any '.' (periods, full-stops).

Go to the 'General' tab and remove the hook from the check-box.

There are third-party renaming applications that will do a better job; Fireworks won't help here probably.

Maybe you can try sourceforge.net/projects/freefilerenamer/ ? :-)

[EDIT] I have just tested Free File Renamer (see link above). It worked fine! :)

open the app;
click on "select folder" and browse to the folder with the *.fw.png files;
select all;
go to "add operation" tab;
click "replace" and use "find what: .fw.png/replace with: .png", make sure also to check "include extension" checkbox, then click on "add" button;
then click "home" tab again, click "rename" button, done! :-)
