Batch Rename

Rename multiple files at once using template variables. FLOGVIT.culling renames both the image files and their XMP sidecars automatically.

Opening the Rename Dialog

Press Cmd+Shift+R or go to Tools → Batch Rename. The dialog works on all selected images — select the images you want to rename first.

Rename Template

Build a filename pattern using variables:

{date}_{camera}_{seq:4}.{ext}

This produces filenames like 2026-02-19_NIKON_Z9_0001.nef.

Available Variables

Date & Time:

  • {date} — Capture date (YYYY-MM-DD)
  • {time} — Capture time (HH-MM-SS)
  • {year}, {month}, {day} — Individual date components
  • {hour}, {minute}, {second} — Individual time components

Camera & Lens:

  • {camera} — Camera model
  • {lens} — Lens model
  • {focal} — Focal length
  • {aperture}, {shutter}, {iso} — Exposure settings

File:

  • {original} — Original filename (without extension)
  • {ext} — File extension
  • {folder} — Parent folder name
  • {dimensions}, {width}, {height} — Image dimensions

Sequence:

  • {seq:N} — Sequence number with N digits (e.g., {seq:4} → 0001)

Metadata:

  • {rating} — Star rating
  • {colorclass} — Color label name
  • {caption}, {headline}, {keywords} — IPTC fields

Sequence Numbering

Configure the sequence counter:

  • Start value — The first number in the sequence (default: 1)
  • Digit count — How many digits to pad to (e.g., 4 → 0001)
  • Step — Increment per file (default: 1)

Live Preview

The dialog shows a side-by-side preview of old and new filenames for all selected images. This lets you verify the result before applying.

Find & Replace

Switch to the find & replace tab to search and replace text within existing filenames. Useful for fixing typos or updating naming conventions across a batch.

XMP Sidecars

When renaming, XMP sidecar files are automatically renamed to match their parent image. You never need to rename sidecars manually.
