I tried searching but this is tough to find...

I use the automation to rename files a lot. However in my naming convention I prefer to use dashes "-" instead of underscores "_". This means that after I auto rename I still have to go back and manually replace the titles a lot.

Here is an example:
If I am renaming a comic titled, "Super Comic: The Adventures of Someguy"
The auto rename changes the ":" to "_" so it would read: "Super Comic_ The Adventures of Someguy".

Instead I'd like to be able to change the script maybe or a preference at the very least, so it would change it to, "Super Comic - The Adventures of Someguy" instead.

Any ideas?

1. Have every auto renamed and ready to go so you only have to do this once.

2. Select everything you want to change.

3. Right-Click to Automation->Search and Replace

4. Select "Series" for Field.

5. Put "_" in Search.

6. Put "-" in Replace.

7. Click OK.

Thanks for the response. Yea, funny enough I figured this out after I posted. But if anyone has any suggestions for actually changing the script to do this automatically, that'd be awesome too.

You could try the Guided rename script.

perfect! thanks
