NameExif 2.1 feature request
| cstern on 4-May-2020 |
| Hi I have been looking for this for a long while. Being a mac user I have had great pleasure of using ExifRenamer for several years, and it works great. Until now I have not been able to find a replacement for windows. NameExif can do this. Being spoiled with ExifRenamer, I miss a few features  Therefore, I'd like to suggest the following features: 1) Drag and drop (d&d a file or folder onto the NameExif icon should load the file or folder as done now manually. 2) different ways of naming files with identical EXIF timestamp: in ExifRenamer you can choose either to do like you do, or to add 1 sec to the name until the name is unique. 3) Move or copy renamed files to a new destination (optionally keep original untouched). I would be happy to share screen dumps of the dialog boxes if you don't have access to a mac. |

| Hi cstern, First, you will be successful running Namexif or HTTPhotos on Mac using Wine, so it could be possible to run Namexif on Mac. Regarding your suggestions, that's interesting, especially 1 and 2. On 3, I think you can quite easily first copy a folder, hence leaving original untouched and then work on files copied. Thanks for the feedback! |

| Thanks. I don't need NameEXIF on the mac - I have EXIFrenamer for that I need (and will use) NameEXIF on my Win10 box. Looking forward to possible enhancements. It is already great and very useful! |

| Oh, and one more thing: Optionally (by a check box, maybe), it would be nice if it is possible to rename files without EXIF info to the date stamp of the file. I like that NameExif skips these files, but sometimes it could be nice to rename all files - to keep the name structure consistant - then the file time stamp could be used instead of the missing EXIF date. |

| And one more: maybe could add a "Cancel" button to the progress window. If one accidentally asks for renaming the top level directory of the photo disk drive, and includes subfolders - there is currently no easy (graceful) way to abort. |

| Good point. It is always possible to close the application but a cancel button is more friendly. |
