Subject: Export files name


Tekitoumen ( ) posted Mon, 08 August 2022 at 12:44 AM · edited Thu, 30 January 2025 at 8:31 AM

Hello, 


I want to ask about the file name output by export.

File > Export > Wavefront OBJ ...


For example, if I set the file name to "test" and export several obj files, the obj files are created numbered as follows.

test_0.obj、test_1.obj、test_2.obj・・・・・


I want numbering as shown below.

test_0000.obj、test_0001.obj、test_0002.obj・・・・・


Is it possible to achieve this?

If it is possible, please tell me how.



Thank you.

Here is a V2 and V3 compatible Python instruction to achieve this
"{}_{:04d}".format('test', 35)

So that a Python script could look something like this:

dialog = poser.Dialog()
txt_dlg = poser.DialogTextEntry(dialog, question)
if txt_dlg.Show():
    base_file_name = txt_dlg.Text()
    for i in range(number_of_iterations):
        full_file_name = 
"{}_{:04d}".format(base_fiule_name, i)
