%clipname (no file extension), %currentdate, %absoluteindex

PostThu May 25, 2023 2:32 pm

Absolutely love that you can create dynamic tokens in the Deliver Page / File Name by typing % and invoking the drop-down.

A few small requests...

(1) Possible to add a token for today's date? That's often what I'm burning into the file name.
(2) Possible to add a version of %clipname that doesn't also print the source file extension? For instance, if I'm working with a RED file, I don't want the file name to be XXXXX.R3D.mov, but rather simply XXXX.mov

(3) Kind of a fussy one, but %timelineindex is a really important one when working on, for instance, 60 separate beauty shots that client needs to approve. But I do use clip colors to keep my versioning straight. Problem is, when you sort and export by clip color (all filtered clips), the timeline index is not absolute. In other words, would be lovely to have %absoluteindex, which would keep each clip's number in the color page straight regardless of how they are currently sorted
