Set Output File Name To Input?

[HG2S]

I feel like I’m missing something painfully obvious here, but how do I set the output file name to follow that of the input? I am not running a batch, just single file processing, and have a useful input file alias available. -Thanks

Currently you can only do this in batch processing. But it should be relatively easy to add to the main GUI. I will add it to the wisklist.

I see. I was hoping for some way to use the alias of an input source to derive the output name from. The Copy and Paste (the paste part) does not work on Mac. Instead, it just bings. Aha, Batch Processing offers exactly what I was looking for, thanks for the hint. I was not looking in that direction. It is an rather easy change of configuration. As I am processing one file per month with this transform, I was not thinking of batch-processing Thanks, best Jochen

You can now use file name variable for output files in the latest smapshot. Please see:

Just tried in a production run. Works beautifully. Thanks very much!

It required quite a lot of changes and we are still testing, so please let us know if you come across any bugs.
