How to export with layer name when "Export layers to files"

[Kaladdune]

Hello everyone, how to export only with layer name when 'export layers to files'. Its automatically adds prefix numbers. I just want to export only with layer names. I tried to change some scripts in Presets/Scripts/Layer Comps To Files.jsx " but it didn't work.

Alternative Options:

1) Use Adobe Bridge or another tool to Batch Rename the files, removing the unwanted text (unfortunately, this adds an extra step)

2) Right-click on selected layers in the layers panel and use "Export As" if you only need PNG/JPEG/GIF

3) Use alternative scripts:

https://github.com/Paul-Riggott/PS-Scripts/blob/master/Layer%20Saver%20Plus.jsx

Otherwise, one is left with editing the Adobe script, which as you have found is complex.

P.S. This isn't a bug.

Comment out (disable) the two lines as shown by adding a double forward slash //

Change –

fileNameBody += "_" + layerName;

To –

fileNameBody = layerName;

Restart Photoshop. Enjoy your layer names!
