Generate the name of photo file photo title - can I do with an automated procedure.

I imported into pictures of thousands of old pictures with long, descriptive file names.  The problem is that the metadata for the title remains empty for all the imported photos.  I want set title for each photo to its file name.  I've been going through photos and copy the file name to the title on a basis of photo by photo, but I simply have too many images to pass through them without making my job full time.

Is it possible to automate the assignment of file name for title in situations where the title is empty?  Is it possible to ask for the title to be considered file during the import process name?  (Apple: if not, why?)  Can I write a script to assign the title of file name?

Thanks for any idea that you can offer.

There are user scripts to do this

Script: Change the title filename without Extension

Script: Batch change the titles to the w/Extension

and old toad has compiled some of these applications

  • Why windows media player displays only the names of original files?

    Windows Media Player only shows the original file names that can be confusing if I changed the name of a file. The name of the file (usually audio files) is correct in Windows Explorer, but in the component list of WMP, it's often the old file name. Why is this and what can I do about it? Advice would be appreciated. TA. Kevin.

    What the file type of these music files (MP3, WMA, WAV...)?

    WMP usually displays the title tags of the music file, which is independent of the file name. However, WMP always displays the current file name in the path column of the file, which can be activated by right clicking on a column header and select choose columns.

  • Impossible to display the names of HTML files in the HTML Files (topics) folder in the project manager

    RH8, I want to see the names of the HTML files instead of topic titles in the project manager.  I chose the button toggle project manager and the name of the folder is passed to "HTML Files (topics)" of "Project Files".  However, the folder of files HTML (topics) lists topics with subject titles, rather than the names of HTM files.  I was expecting to see the topic list in the Manager component of project with HTM file names.

    I annotated the popup code section and I don't see the problem more.  Something in the code below was he locked up and renaming does not...  Good times with the scripts!

  • Need help to generate the name of the variable object timeout

    Below is a function that I use for scaling an object down and then hide it. It works fine on a single object, but if I try to run it on multiple objects at the same time, only the last object gets scaled down. I think it's because the timeout list never has one in this document, "ShrinkTimeOut."

    Each entity in the list of timeout needs a different name? And if so, how would I dynamically generate a name and save it so I can kill the timeout once the object object has reduced completely?

    > It looks like I'm getting rid of the timeout properly object in my code?

    Now that you say, and I have a glance, no - this isn't:
    not sure about the order of the parameters here:
    function fShrinkLoop (mModel, aTimeout) {}
    Creates a variable that contains the value of the model vector
    scale (vector (1,0000, 1,0000 1.0000)).
    nScaleVector = mModel.getPropRef("transform").scale;
    Check if the model is 1% or less to its original size.
    If (nScaleVector [1])<=0.01)>
    The model makes it invisible.
    mModel.visibility = symbol ("none");
    Kill the timeout object.
    aTimeout.forget ();
    } else {}
    If this isn't the case, further reduce US model and allow the loop to
    Repeat steps.
    mModel.scale (0.9);
    }
    }
