Mass Edit
Mass options acts on many items at once. It has three tabs:
- Rename: find and replace text in item names and texture variant names.
- Mix order: reshuffle the drawable numbers inside each slot.
- Duplicates: find and remove copies. This has its own page, Find Duplicates.
Mass options is free. Nothing is written until you have seen the exact before and after for every affected row.
Opening it
- Click the Mass options button beside the item list's search box.
- Or select several items, right-click and choose Edit names in the selected items….
At the top, choose which items it acts on:
| Scope | Items |
|---|---|
| Selected (N) | The rows you picked by hand. Shown only when you have a selection. |
| Filtered (N) | What the item list currently shows after its search and gender filter. Shown only when that differs from the whole project. |
| All items | Every item in the project. |
The scope stays the same when you switch tabs.
Rename
-
Set up the replacement
Type the text to change in Find and the new text in Replace with. Leave Replace with empty to remove the text. Choose whether to change Item names, Texture names or both, and tick Match case if capitals matter. -
Read the preview
Every affected row is listed with its old and new name, and the preview updates as you type. The header counts the changes. A row marked blocked is one the app will not rename, with the reason beside it; it is skipped. -
Apply
Click Replace N name(s). Click Undo in the dialog to put the names back.
Names here are labels inside the tool. Renaming them does not change the built file names.
Mix order
Mix order reshuffles the drawable numbers inside each slot.
| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Seed | Decides the order. The same seed on the same project always gives the same order, so note it down if you might need to repeat a shuffle. New seed picks another. |
| Slot start > Entire set | Every item in each slot can move. |
| Slot start > Keep first N | The first N items of every slot keep their numbers. These are usually the ones a server already uses. This is the default, with N set to 10. |
The preview lists every item that gets a new number, with counts of items held and unchanged. Click Shuffle N item(s) to apply. Click Undo in the dialog to restore the old numbers.
If fewer than two items are free to move, nothing happens and the dialog says so.
Undo
Besides the Undo button in the dialog, both Rename and Mix order can be undone with Ctrl+Z, like every other action in the app.
