File names are parsed by breaking them into several components:
Examples:
File Name | Path | Base | Number | Extension |
---|---|---|---|---|
image.dpx | image. | .dpx | ||
image0001.dpx | image | 0001 | .dpx | |
image.1-1000.dpx | image. | 1-1000 | .dpx | |
/scratch/image.1.tga | /scratch/ | image. | 1 | .tga |
File sequences provide a convenient way to describe a collection of files containing frames numbers. For example, if you have 100 files named: render.1.tga, render.2.tga, render.3.tga, etc., you may refer to them as the file sequence: render.1-100.tga. Sequences may be a continuous range of numbers described by a start and end (separated by a dash), arbitrary numbers (separated by a comma), or a combination of the two.
Examples:
Sequence | Frames |
---|---|
1-5 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
1,2,3,4,5 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
1,3-5 | 1, 3, 4, 5 |
5-1 | 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 |
0001-0005 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
