Variables in Custom Name when exporting?

[0800-grizzly]

Hi,

We're looking at shifting at least partially from LrC to Lightroom. Looking at the naming options for exporting, it looks very cut down in Lightroom compared to LrC. I tried to use variables in the Custom Name field but they came out verbatim, not as variable results. I tried this syntax:

• myname - {Filename}

Is it really so that we can't use any variables in this Custom Name? Or am I missing something, is there another way of doing this?

Rgds,

Björn
