by Andrei Muresan, 5 years agoAwesome little plugin. Thanks a lot. I'm rating and writing here even though I had to install Chrome in order to make use of the auto-rename options of the plugin.
I do work a lot with images and your plugin comes very handy. Yet, there's something I would really appreciate if you could add. Actually I'm thinking about 2 features:
1 / To be able to set a hotkey to reset %counter%
2 / Add %folder% variable with possibility to change it in options panel and QUICKLY by HOTKEY.
or hotkey to quickly edit Filename Pattern :)
or at least hotkey to plugin options? :)) then I'll have to scroll down and edit... :(
Hotkey to plugin options? - but please, if you do it by adding %folder% variable, add the edit form right above or below Hover Hotkey form, so that you don't have to scroll down to edit it.
I'm saving lots of images in sessions. I save 10-20 images, then again, but in new folder. And so on. That's why the requests above. The plugin already saves me time. But adding the features above would be more than awesome. I'm also going to send you a big beer using the button below :)
Yeah, I'm talking about the plugin for Chrome, of course :))
Cheers!

posted 5 years agoHey, glad you like it, thanks for the extensive post. Sorry for the late reply, life is busy.
Your #1 idea, sorry, but it's too much work to create a configurable hotkey just for that. I could do it as a toolbar button instead quite easily, but that feels odd. Anyway, please follow up on it here: https://gitlab.com/Marnes/doubleclick-image-downloader/-/issues/72
As for #2, what would %folder% refer to? If you mean changing the download folder itself, sorry, but I couldn't even if I wanted to. Modern addon design makes this a privileged browser setting, not for addons to control. If you have a different idea for %folder%, please post an issue on gitlab (like for #1) with an explanation.
Hotkeys for things are generally a lot of work and maintenance, and just not worth it then, sorry. As for the options screen order, changing the order would be good for one person but bad for someone else. I think it's balanced as it is now.
For your folders, would it be a solution if I added an alternative counter variable that would increment at a toolbar button press? Then you could set up a numeric folder pattern and hit the toolbar button to end one group of images in your session. Follow up here: https://gitlab.com/Marnes/doubleclick-image-downloader/-/issues/73
You'd be the first person to donate in a long time, and the first since I completely rewrote all my addons with a whole new coding framework and language, so it'd be much appreciated, thanks :)
