Renaming paired RAW and JPGs doesn't give the same sequence numbers to each pair

I just tried renaming a bunch of images shot in both RAW and JPG, by setting up a batch rename in the latest version of Bridge (15.0.2.432), with a text field for the first part of the filename, and a 4 digit sequence number as part two of the new filename. The original files had identical filenames, only the file extension was different (.DNG and .JPG). But after renaming, Bridge didn't keep the pairs, and gave me:

xxx_0001.DNG + xxx_0002.JPG
xxx_0003.DNG + xxx_0004.JPG
xxx_0005.DNG + xxx_0006.JPG

Please fix this asap!

Hi Elvind,

Thank you for your feedback.

Bridge treats these as separate files. If you move a DNG file to another folder, the corresponding JPG will not move with it. However, for other RAW formats, moving or renaming one file will also apply the change to the other.

Thanks,
Bridge Team
