append output file with saved new name

Question

Hell there, 
 I have a number of saved views. I'm creating a 'save multiple image' list. Is there away to append the output file name to have the saved view name it came from. 
 Currently in the output file name field there is "%d-%2a.jpg" this gives the file the name of the dgn file + a number. Could I write something in there that would keep the dgn file name and add the saved view name to it. 
 My saved views have a sequence of numbers as a name. i.e. saved view = 
 360-00-000 
 360-00-010 
 360-00-020 
 etc 
 and also 
 360-10-000 
 360-10-010 
 etc. 
 I would like this string of numbers appended to the dgn file name when saving multiple images. 
 
 Hopefully I have managed to explain myself adequately. 
 
 Regards, 
 Myles.

Hi, 
 The % options for the filename are listed in the .sm file here they are, so %v looks like what you need.

%d = the design file name 
 %m = the model name 
 %v = the view group name or named view name 
 %n = the view number 
 %r = the render mode 
 %s = the render setup name 
 %l = the light setup name 
 %e = the script entry number 
 %t = the environment setup name 
 %a = a number that is automatically incremented to prevent overwriting another file
