I am using Fireshot 0.98.53 in Windows 8 and Google Chrome Version 35.0.1916.114 m
I used Fireshot on Ancestry.com. I successfully captured several screen shots but the automatically generated file names were too long so I was not able to use Picassa photo viewer until I manually shortened the file names, also those files would not display in PaperPort until I shortened their names. I went into the options and found a place to change the file name. I entered the number 1 and thought it might name the next file 2 but, now everything I capture has this same name, so each time it replaces the previous capture with the new one of the same name. It gives no warning about overwriting a file with the same name. How can I make it automatically give shorter names to my files? How can I prevent it from overwriting a file with the same name? Thanks |

| Thanks. I'd also like to ask why this is not the one set at default? | ||

| Thank you. %n did what I needed it to do. In future versions it would be nice to add a warning that a file with the same name will be over written. | ||
