Select Image File Format
After the root image directory is specified, the user will be asked to select the image file format from the following dialog box:

Image: Select Image Format
This is where the user will tell Rootfly the convention of their root image filenames established in the preparing images section.
Note: As changes are made to the file format, a preview of the current format is updated at the bottom ("Format:").
- The "Reset to Bartz ICAP" button at the top resets the image file format to the Bartz ICAP format.
- The delimiter determined in preparing images should be specified in the "Delimiter" field.
- The image format (bmp or jpg) should be specified in the "Extension" field.
- The "Not Included" and "Included" fields contain the information 'blocks' that make up the image file format. To create the file format of the root images, the blocks may need to be selected and added or removed from the "Included" box.
- Most of the information blocks do not require any modification (since the majority are just numbers or letters). The exception here is the Date block. Selecting this block will show a "Date Format" button (as shown above).
- Pressing the "Date Format" button will bring up the "Modify Date Format" dialog box (shown below). Using this, the user can set the order the month, day, and year appear in the file format, the number of digits in the year, and the delimiter between the three date elements.

Image: Modify Date Format
- Once the necessary blocks are placed into "Included," individual blocks may be moved up and down (essentially moving them left or right in the filename format, respectively).
- A prefix can also be added to a block by selecting it and filling in the "Prefix" field.
- After the desired file format is established in the "Format:" preview, hit "OK" to confirm.
- After: The "Select Image File Format" dialog should disappear and the root images should be loaded into Rootfly. If the Image Directory or File Format selection boxes reappear, this probably means a user error occurred. Double-check that the directory and file format are correct, then try again.
