Dropbox file names.

Post by hms »

Harry,
when I tranfer laps to dropbox, how does the naming convention work?

Thses are samples of two of the sets I have in dropbox.
LapTimer-All-262...115946 (I think All-262 means export all laps , with 262 being the last lap.)
LapTimer-Trackda...010335

From this I have no idea of the date of the lap, I have to open each one to see the date it was uploaded to dropbox.
Is there a way where the naming convention could be changed to all or just the trackset date used and either the date it was recorded, or the date it was uploaded?
Regards
Howard

Hi,

The dropbox export uses the following naming scheme:

LapTimer-All-27012012-143458 all laps exported on 27th of January 2012, at 02:34.58 pm
LapTimer-Trackday-28102011-223939 laps belonging to last trackday exported on 28th Oct 2011, at 10:39.39 pm
LapTimer-91-11042011-220957 lap# 91 exported om 11th Apr 2011, at 10:09.57 pm

This naming scheme gives only limited insights to the content, but makes sure names are unique.
I will add an item to my 1 million things todo list :-)
