Filters > Token Mover Filter
This filter allows you easily switch places for tokens (name parts) in names.
For example, you can switch the Artist and Track Title parts for a music file.
First, you should decide what will be the Token Seperator
String. This string is used to separate names into tokens (parts).
For example, it the seperator string is -, the name
Artist-Album-Title will be divided into three tokens: Artist,
Album, Title.
Token number to move: Select which token out of the
defined tokens you would like to move. Token number must not exceed the number
of tokens in each name.
Places to move: Select the distance and direction to
move the token to. Use positive values for moving right, and negative values
for moving left. Distance is measured in tokens. For example: Use
-1 to switch the token with it's preceding token.
If distance exceeds start / end of name, token will be moved to the first /
last place respectively.
Can be applied on any text field.
Example:
Move Token #2 in 3 places forward. Token Seperator string is ",".
