Can you help me modify this script , Change the file name of picture directly to its note.

Question

But I just want to modify the content after @, @ and its previous numbers remain unchanged.For example, this is the end:P040-001@Great Village Mango BaseThank you very much ~ /*

Hi @dublove I have written a script that I hope does what you ask. Please give it a try and let me know how it goes. I hope you can follow along in the script to see what I am doing: I locate the caption based on it's proximity to the bottom left of the graphic frame, then rename the link.

 * Usage:
 *   1. Select one or more graphic frames

 *   2. Run script
 *
 * If the linked file's name contains "@" symbol it
 * Will rename the linked file, replacing text after
 * the "@" with the caption of the image, if found.

Edit 2024-07-28: changed structure slightly so that multiple graphics could be selected and renamed at once, and added feedback alert.

Edit 2024-07-28: added `getPointFromBounds` function to make it easier for OP to set the measurement points as desired. Edit this line:

bottomCenter = getPointFromBounds(bounds, AnchorPoint.BOTTOM_CENTER_ANCHOR),

and/or this line:

items.sort(sortByDistanceFrom(bottomCenter, AnchorPoint.TOP_CENTER_ANCHOR));

Edit 2024-07-29: Based on OP feedback, I turned the error alerts back on, I turned off the final stats alert, and now, if the caption contains a file extension, it will remove it before renaming link. Also in this version you must select the caption(s) along with the graphic(s)—script will no longer search for captions outside of the selected page items. To revert this behaviour, change this line:

items[i] = renameLinkWithCaption(items[i], items, stats) || items[i];

to:

items[i] = renameLinkWithCaption(items[i], undefined, stats) || items[i];

Edit 2024-07-30: fixed bug where `items` array was being mutated by `getCaptionTextFrame`.

Hi @dublove, is that a Live Caption, or normal text in the frame under the image?- Mark
