I’m trying to create an easy way to record and play out stills using macros.

I’ve created a macro to recall a playlist of stills numbered 001, 002, 003 etc.

I’ve also created a macro to capture a still and renumber it to 001 etc.

Now the problem is I’m having to go in and manually delete any previous stills with those numbers, just wondering if anybody has any idea how to get around this for example can I build in an overwrite function to the capture macro?

Thanks in advance.

Jamie

Hi Jamie,

It is not possible to do what you would like you will have to continue to manually renumber or delete the older ones..
