Ability to change filename template

See original GitHub issue

macOS version: 10.14.6 Kap version: 2.2.0

Feature Request

Currently, when Kap exports files, it names them as Kapture %date, this is a great default, but it’d be awesome if I could customise this.

Rather than have separate screenshots and Kapture directories lying about, I just have a single screenshots directory where I put everything taken from my screen — video and images. Because of the naming of Kapture files by default, it means that files don’t sort according to name nicely.

This is really just a nice to have, I can work around just by changing the file names manually. Thanks for making Kap, it’s awesome.

I think we can close this, as now we have kap-recording-name plugin, which can be installed with Kap 3.2.0

Perhaps if there was a field you could fill in preferences to add a project name, and that appends to the filename: [projectname] + date + time.
