Auto-Naming for Strip Silence
The Rename button in the Strip Silence window
opens the Rename Selected Regions dialog,
which determines how regions are named when
stripping silence. The dialog remembers your
previous settings, which can be cleared by click-
ing the Clear button.
Name Specifies the base name for regions cre-
ated with Strip Silence.
Number Specifies the number at which sequen-
tial auto-numbering starts.
Zeros Specifies the number of zeroes that occur
before the appended auto numbers.
Suffix Specifies text appended to the end of the
name, after the auto numbering.
For example, if you set these naming options to:
•Name = SFX
• Auto Number Start = 23
•Leading Zeros = 1
• Suffix = .Reel1
The names generated for regions created by Strip
Silence would be:
• SFX023.Reel1
• SFX024.Reel1
• SFX025.Reel1
• SFX026.Reel1
• SFX027.Reel1
