I haven't done it for a while (club activity is minimal in winter) but I'm
pretty sure that I did it in digikam - where I could define a new folder name
and a new naming pattern at the same time. It saves a lot of time. This time
I only had a dozen photos to scale and name, but when you have 50 it's a
different thing.
Like most people, I wish that we had got the functionality back before
worrying about additional features. I can see which is sexy for devs, though
:-)
