Unconfirmed Vista problem for ArsClip
In a Mark Russinovich Vista WebCast (SysInternals), he mentions that programs are restricted in the way that they can transfer messages between windows - including keystrokes. Before, any program could manipulate the window of another program - no matter the privilege difference. The new Integrity Levels means that ArsClip will be limited in its interactions with programs running at a higher level. As most things run at Medium Level, this may or may not be a problem.
UPDATE: My latest reports say they've had no problems with ArsClip in Vista - excellent news.
Rename Master sequences
I'm working on an addition to Rename Master to support recognizing filename sequences and I need help.
My idea is that the user defines part of the filename using a wildcard/regular expression mask and RM resets the counter when the previos filename part doesn't match. For example,
file01-33
file01-98
file02-41
file02-42
Using the mask File?? the counter will reset as labelled below:
file01-33
file01-98
file02-41 (File02 doesn't match File01 - reset here)
file02-42
What I need is a way to explain this on RM's graphical interface that's simple to understand and learn from. Currently, I'm just using a checkbox and a textbox that looks like the following:
[x] Reset counter on new sequence
[File?? ]
This, however, doesn't tell you anything about how it works at all or what the textbox is supposed to represent or how RM uses this text to decide when to reset the counter.
So, again, what I need is some wording that explains:
- the textbox describes the "sequence" part of the name
- the counter is reset when the sequence part of the filename changes
