Find and Replace multiple digits with the last character in notepad++


Does anyone know how to replace several different Digits all at once in notepad++.

For example, I have 4 different Digits;

1000x1000.jpg
750x750.jpg
1000x750.jpg
750x1000.jpg

I want the result like this:

1000x1000.jpg 1000
650x550.jpg 650
1200x850.jpg 1200
350x1300.jpg 350

I was trying to select each first digit and make them in groups with this Regex:

([0-9]{4}x+[0-9]{4}.jpg)|([0-9]{3}x+[0-9]{4}.jpg)|([0-9]{3}x+[0-9]{3}.jpg)|([0-9]{4}x+[0-9]{3}.jpg)

But I can't replace them after .jpg


Solution

  • You can use

    ^(\d+)x\d+\.jpg$
    

    Replace with $0 $1.

    See the regex demo. Details:

    Note that $0 is a backreference to the whole match value. $1 refers to Group 1 value.

    Regex variations

    If the match does not fit the whole line, use either word (\b(\d+)x\d+\.jpg\b) or numeric/word ((?<!\d)(\d+)x\d+\.jpg\b) boundaries.
