Default output name

[Fotografia]

I would like to know it is possible to choose a default output file name without spaces.

e.g. default is IMG_8197 - IMG_8201.tif

I think without spaces imho it would be a better default: IMG_8197-IMG_8201.tif

Thank you in advance.

+1 from me: Spaces in file names tend not to be tested in many applications.

Kind regards,

Gunter.

Yes, that's what I do. Go to File->Preferences->Filenames.

Yes, that's what I do.  Go to File->Preferences->Filenames.

Great. Thank you!

I will add from myself, what cannot be set up in the filename preferences yet.
To abbreviate long suffixes such as "blended_fused" and projection names (predefined or defined by a user).
It took a long time to guess which one is which. I am still not sure when I see "_fused" - was it composed from a stack or from any arrangement?.
In the editor there are options to make panoramas "from stack" and "from any arrangement", in the saved files there are suffixes "_fused" and "_blended_fused".
The suffixes make filenames undesirably long.

The proposal is to introduce alternative suffixes "_stk" and "_any".

Projection names. Fortunately almost each of the projections begins with a different letter.
I use this scheme (everybody may use a different) "lastfile-pah-6c" what means
pah = panorama created by Hugin, 6 = number of images, c = cylindrical projection (I add it manually).
The most of projections can be one or two characters added automatically, e for equirectangular, m for mercator, p for panini, r for rectilinear, f for fisheye
for other projections the suffix may be two letters, st for stereographic, th for thoby...
or different single letters like u for Miller, l for albers, q for equisolid etc.

I have added these file name additions like "blended_fused" to the
(German) tooltips right where the user chooses between those output
options.

Maybe it's a good idea to simply add this info also to the English tooltips?
