Staff Lee D Posted August 31, 2015 Staff Share Posted August 31, 2015 Hi mrcavallo, The file naming is automatic when you select Export 1x, 2x or 3x, when the Export window appears you can then manually edit the file name. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcavallo Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 hi Lee, i have looked but still see no option to rename the file - when the export window appears it only gives me the option to 'select export folder' - this is after clicking the 'export selected' button in the slices panel. i have looked at the png options under 'export' in the main menu but still cannot seem to find a way to prevent the auto naming of all my slices. the 'file/export' dialogue gives me the option to rename - but that seems to be for exporting a single full page image. there is an option that states 'area' but for some reason this is greyed out. i must be missing something? thank you.

Staff Lee D Posted August 31, 2015 Staff Share Posted August 31, 2015 Hi mrcavallo, The naming is automatic, you can edit the first part of the name is you wish on the Slices tab by clicking the name. But the @3x for example will still be automatically added. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrcavallo Posted September 1, 2015 Author Share Posted September 1, 2015 please do - this definitely needs an opt out as not all devs use the same naming conventions. thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helmsmith Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Just throwing in agreement that we'd love more control over this in the future. Right now I'm resorting to batch renaming all of my images after export, which is an extra step in my workflow I could do without. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
