Great set of tools - simple and work. Batch renaming layers was my issue - this does it perfectly. I wanted to rename 60 random named topo survey layers with the prefix 'TOPO_' did it in a few seconds.
Glad this worked out for you...cheers!!!
Thanks to the developer.
I have been looking for such an app for a long time.
But the problem is that the same characters do not change. for example: ..-a-.. cannot be changed to ..-a-pre-.. And how can I remove the suffix?
Thanks for the suggestions. I’ll work on incorporating them on the next release.
The newest LayerApps version 3.1.0 contains features that meet your needs. Please download this latest free tool and see for yourself.
