Dear all,

How to change rendered output filenames from FileName_F.png (ex: MyOutputFile_1.png) into FileName_FFFF.png (ex: MyOutputFile_0001.png), where F is the Frame Number, please?

In:
Render Manager[add-on]->Scene Render Options->Default Pass->Render Channels Output
I can define a format of rendered filename. I use [Scene]_[Frame] to generate filenames such as:

MyTestScene_1.png
MyTestScene_2.png
MyTestScene_3.png
...
MyTestScene_10.png
MyTestScene_11.png
MyTestScene_12.png
...

These frames are further postprocessed, and because of that numbering they are parsed into the post processing application in wrong order:

MyTestScene_1.png
MyTestScene_11.png
MyTestScene_12.png
MyTestScene_13.png
...
MyTestScene_2.png
MyTestScene_21.png
MyTestScene_22.png
...

How to adjust file output names, please, so that they have the following format:
MyTestScene_0001.png
MyTestScene_0002.png
...

Application used: Softimage 2011 (64-bit) for Windows.
Thank you.

What you seem to be looking for is called “frame padding” and it’s explained on this page of the (online) User’s Guide…
