Lightbulb Calibre fills automatically title and author metadata in books without any metadata?

I make this thread, because I found something interesting and which is related to my other thread/question that I made earlier on this forum but in different category.

I started to play with calibre and found that, that probably when some book that I add, if don't have any metadata info(title, author, etc.) calibre takes it from the filename somehow.
And that's one part of the thing that I asked in previous thread that could help me changing metadata in bulk.

So Calibre is capable of doing this, but is there anyway to control it, like for e.g. tell it to always try to make such metadata from files, even if the file have some metadata?

And maybe to tell it the pattern/s.

There is also an old thread on this forum, where there is a similar question and one might even say it's solved, but the solution for me is to tricky(?), just bad. Especially if it seems that Calibre is capable of doing it automatically.
