Does renaming 0 to 00.jpg lead to a correct order on the new renaming or the script reorders the "old" 10.jpg to just after the "old" 1.jpg ?

ie will the output order be like this?:
00, 1, 10,11,..19, 2, 20,21,...

or like this one?:
00, 1, 2,..9,10,...19,20,..29,..

if it does not mix the order of the old ones, then renaming the old 0.jpg to 00.jpg could solve this problem?

So in that case, I'd want to do the following so it won't lose my bookmark?

1. Delete the existing files from the directory
2. Put the new ones in the same directory
3. Run the rename script
4. View in Komic

Thanks

I'm a bit tired but I can't understand what you're suggesting.
New script (the one will be delivered with next release) had some improvements in the sorting part.
It sorts files based on:
- first letter of filename
- then, on every numeric field in filename
making possibile to mix different filenames (it's so hard to be "universal" on this thing).

Let's assume you have 20 pics from a chapter in a folder (correctly renamed).
If you add more pics, rename script won't work on this folder as it find 0 as first file.
If you want to add more pics, you could make a new folder.

If you have a bookmark at page 19, deleting all files and putting new ones in the same folder will lead to keep the bookmark, but this bookmark will point you to pic n° 19 of the NEW set of pics you added.

Great. That's exactly what I want. I group my manga by volume, but usually it's translated and released chapter by chapter, so I'll not want to start from the beginning each time a new chapter is added to a volume.

Ok, so n°19 will be always the same image through releases. I got it now!

Dear Silver18,
Some A4 comic pages are unreadable on portrait mode.
I want read all pages of my comic book on landscape mode (in Komic).
But I can read only one page on landscape mode with rotate image button (in reading menu).
if i push next page, next page comes on portrait mode.

How can i read all pages on landscape mode (in Komic).


(Sorry for my english. I use Google Transte and web dictionary.)

[silver18]

Just open Komic, hit menu, choose landscape mode.And take some minutes to take a look to other function such as bookmark menu, schedule deletions....

What I wanted to ask is whether the script preserves the order created previously by itself when I just rename the first one to 00.jpg and execute the script again.

[silver18]

Renaming 0.jpg to 00.jpg doesn't create problems with the order (with new version of the script. I don't know if this worked with the old one!).
Anyway, running again the script after adding images and renaming 0 to 00 will lead to correct renaming only if new images are sorted after old ones.
Otherwise the new block of images will be sorted before the old ones!

Thanks. Nice job !

I was bored so I made some buttons for komic that look like the kindle touch ones. Just thought I would share them if anyone wants them. You can download them here. By the way silver18 I meant no disrespect I love komic, I just wanted more "kindle like" buttons and shared them encase anyone else did. A sample image is attached.
