    Implemented Irfanview screenshots in numerical order

    IRFANVIEW,TOOLBAR,CAPTURE/SCREENSHOT... (C),CAPTURE SETUP,AFTER THE CAPTURE,FILE NAME,capture_%d%m%Y_%H%M%S

    WHAT'S THE "%" CODE TO GET IT TO SAVE IN NUMERICAL ORDER INSTEAD OF TIME/DATE?

    AFAIK there isn't one. Try using Picpick instead.

        I just went through the alphabet of trials for the % variables in Capture for filenaming.

        I did NOT find any automatically incrementing variable.
        However I did find some otherwise undocumented variables!!
        %a will give the day of the week 3 letter form (as in Mon, Tue, Wed, etc) HOWEVER it is one day off (today was Thu and it reported Fri)

        %A will give the day of the week, HOWEVER it is one day off (today was Thursday and it reported Friday)

        %I will give the hour in 12 hour time (not the 24 hour time of %H)

        %p will give AM or PM of the 12 hour time (use this with the %I above)

        %z and %Z will both give the time zone info (for me both report "Pacific Daylight Time")

        I found a few others that I do not yet know exactly what they are, but I have a guess:
        This only works with the current version 4.28
        %u reports "29" I think this is the subversion of IrfanView plus 1. Since I am using version 4.28 this reports "29"
        %w reports "5" I think this is the major-version of IrfanView plus 1. Since I am using version 4.28 this reports "5"
        %W reports "29" I think this is the subversion of IrfanView plus 1. Since I am using version 4.28 this reports "29"

        I tried these variables on earlier versions of IrfanView, and they report other numbers, but not following the scheme I just mentioned. I think perhaps this is something that was just made to function in version 4.28. That earlier versions it was not yet implemented.
        Version 4.20 reports nothing and "00" for the major and subversions.
        Version 4.25 reports "0" and "00" for the major and subversions
        Version 4.27 reports "1" and "00" for the major and subversions.

        I think we will have to get the correct answer from Irfan. Plus, someone ought to mention to him that the %a and %A (day of the week) variables are one day off.

        Finally there is %j, this is one I have no clue about.
        version 4.20 reports the number "843"
        version 4.22 reports the number "443"
        version 4.25 reports the number "643"
        version 4.27 reports the number "791"
        version 4.28 reports the number "106"

        If any of you have other results, you might tell us what they are.

          Screenshots in numerical order are possible since IrfanView V4.30!
          [History of changes V4.30: "New options in Capture dialog (send to Clipboard, Printer, new name patterns)"]

          possible placeholder: capture_###

          See also program menu of IrfanView: \Help\IrfanView Help\ → [Index] → "Capture"
          [and also the german thread: "bilder beim fotografieren nummerieren"]
