Hi,
I would like to show the name of every image in a photo viewer widget. Unfortunately it only seems to be possible to show the whole path of the image; e.g. C:\Users\Name\Images\ ...\ ...\ ...\image name.jpg. As pathes are often very long, it would be nice if there would be a way to "shorten" them. It would be great if someone knows a solution. Many thanks in advance.

Hey, I think this is a great idea!

When you say you want the image name, do you mean with or without the extension ?
e.g. C:\Users\Name\Images\ ...\ ...\ ...\image name.jpg
to return "image name.jpg" or "image name" only

Hi,
both versions, respectively one of them - (with or without file extention) would be ok. It would be great if you know how to do this!

Is this OK
text2 in the displayed file name
relocate the // at the start of line two to line three to select with or without the file extension.

function photoalbumcore1OnUpdate(Sender)
{
var picpath = photoalbumcore1.get("%FileName");
// var picname = picpath.substring(picpath.lastIndexOf("\\") + 1,picpath.lenght); // with extension
var picname = picpath.substring(picpath.lastIndexOf("\\") + 1,picpath.lastIndexOf(".")); // without extension
text2.text = picname
}

Thank you very much!!! This is perfect!
