When IfDup tokens result in text being appended, the above transformations can be somewhat muddled. For example: assume the following:
The files would be renamed: Test.mp3 and Test_ (2).mp3
This is because all rename transformations are applied on the final text in a filename. In Test_ (2) the _ character is not at the end.
The Apply transformations for IfDup setting applies various transformations on all text immediately before the first IfDup token which is true. ie. the IfDup is being processed.
If the setting was enabled, the two files would be renamed to Test.mp3 and Test (2).mp3 as the transformations would be applied on Test_ before inserting the ·(❨Dup #❩) text.
The Apply transformations for IfDup setting applies the following transformations if they are enabled:
Note that the full set of applicable rename transformations is always performed after the entire name has been constructed.
