export still images WITHOUT the frame number by default?

Question

Hi all,

I have to export a lot of different still images with a specific naming but each time i do a Save Frame As... , it adds the frame number at the end of comps name. I would like to know if there's any way of removing it by default.

In the render queue, I always have to select comp's Output To: and Re-select "Comp name" manually for each export and it is really a pain .

Thanks in advance

No, unfortunately not. That's one of those odd inconsistencies in AE, though on some level it is also logical. Perhaps you should look into the many scrip-based solutions on AEScripts.com. Mylenium

just create a *.BAT file in the current directory and delete the last three digits:

@2846721 off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

for %%F in (*.*) do (
set "filename=%%~nF"
set "extension=%%~xF"

if not "!filename!"=="" (
if not "!extension!"=="" (
set "new_filename=!filename:~0,-3!!extension!"
if not "%%F"=="!new_filename!" (
ren "%%F" "!new_filename!"
)
)
)
)
