Script - Rename Layers

Post by LeviFiction »

Script Name: Rename Layers
Download Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8FlFL ... sp=sharing
Compatability: 8 - X9 (tested in X7, x8, X9, 2018)
Requirements: Place in Scripts-Restricted Folder
Description:
This version of the script will only run in X4 - 2018. I have another one for older versions if anyone wants it but it lacks a key feature of this script.

This script renames layers using a prefix and a layer count. Example Prefix = "Layers_" so the first layer will be "Layers_001" You are asked for the prefix when the script is run so you can use any prefix you want. This script also assumes that you have no layer groups.

How it works: There are two ways to use this script.

1) Select a starting layer, then run the script. You'll be asked for the prefix, then the number of layers to rename. The script will rename the currently selected layer up to the number of layers you indicated. So if you said "3" layers it'll rename the current layer plus the next two above it. This script does not take layer groups into account. That would take longer.

2) Select all of the layers you want to rename before running the script using either SHIFT or CTRL to add layers to the selection. Then run the script. You'll be asked for a prefix and it'll rename all selected layers with that prefix and the layer count.

I've used suzplace ss-renamer before.
This script works like a charm and compatible with unicode language. Popup prefix customization is sweet.
Thanks.
