Command Line with BOTH /preset /list

Is it just me or ReNamer command line options does NOT support
BOTH /preset AND /list at the same time?

e.g. "C:\Programs\Util\ReNamer\ReNamer.exe" /preset 03 /list "list.txt"

In the program manual, we have:

program manual wrote:

Load preset specified by a preset name or a full path. Optionally, paths to
files/folders can be appended to the end on this command, and they will be
automatically added to the program.

The whole problem with this is that it's not remotely as practical
to append full LITERAL lists of files and folders, one after another, to a command line.

Whenever I use one of the "preset links" created by ReNamer in a
drag-and-drop operation, it all works flawlessly, oddly enough.

In my specific case, I would like to load Total Commander lists (e.g.
CMD7B6A.tmp, created on C:/Temp/ and passed as parameter to /list with
full names and paths) along with presets, but I can only seem to be
able to do one OR the other from there, never both at
the same time.

The reason why I need this is because depending on which preset
I'm gonna use, I want different filter settings, e.g. sometimes
loading only folders as files, sometimes only files without folders,
sometimes both files and folders as files.

The only way to do this now is to preload ReNamer and then load the
preset (to apply it's proper filter), then close ReNamer, and only
then load the files from Total Commander, now with the "correct"
(adequate) filter settings, and reload the preset and perform the
operation on ReNamer.

It would be much easier to just load both preset and
file lists in one single operation, directly from
Total Commander, just like a drag-and-drop operation on
those "preset links" would do.

Edit: A drag-and-drop operation inside commander to one of the
presets link, e.g. "C:\Programs\Util\ReNamer\Presets\links\03.lnk"
will only load the first selected item, while the same drag-and-drop
to the same .lnk file on windows explorer will do the operation
correctly... Why???

dragging files to explorer shortcuts
Why does this work and the same operation inside Commander doesn't?

P.S.:
by the way, if anyone wants to grab those custom icons I made
for the PRESET LINKS, just grab them here: http://mir.cr/0VM3GIQU
you can either use the include single file ReNamer.icl (icon library) or each icon (.ico) individually.

Hello! :-)

I am already sorry for "bumping" such and old thread, but I have been needing this behavior in ReNamer again...

I have been reading both the forum topics and the wiki page and what I'm left wondering is if the Current version of ReNamer does support both presets and lists at the same time in command line?

Thank you so much (any information regarding this is quite welcome on this side here).

Edit: I am so sorry!... I have just downloaded the latest version and indeed it does work now! I am so happy!

Hello!

Combining different types of command line arguments was not supported until ReNamer v6.6.0.5 Beta.

In the latest version you can indeed combine /preset and /list arguments.

P.S. This thread must have been overlooked.
