Part of filename to tag

[Ooteboe]

I'm experimenting with metadata-templates. I want to copy a part of the filename into a tag. I've found elsewhere: {File.Name|to_upper}. That's the complete filename. But I want to copy only the first 10 characters into the metadata. Is that possible?

Thanks, Hans

You can use the substr Variable formatting function, like

{File.Name|substr:0,3}

Please see the help topics on Variables in the IMatch Help system for all available formatting functions, examples on how to use them etc.

Tip: Use the VarToy app in the App Panel to try out your variables.
