Name

The image’s file name and extension are displayed under the thumbnail. To rename the current file, click

once on the file name to highlight it and a second time to change the file name. You will not be able to change the file’s extension in this manner. To change the file’s extension, use the Save As… command in the File menu.

To rename more than one file, select multiple files in the browser, right-click (Windows) or control-click (Macintosh) and in the displayed contextual menu, select Rename. This will call up the “File Naming”

dialog and enable you to change the names of more than one file. For more information on the “File Naming” dialog, please see “File Naming Dialog” in Chapter 22, “Batch Menu”.
