--- Comment #12 from Nate Graham  ---
Git commit 754e1d3a92c13d9327f4dbf3ed9abb08083af7dd by Nate Graham, on behalf
of Kyle Utecht.
Committed on 19/10/2018 at 22:34.
Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'.

Add default file name token for (padded) sequential file numbering

Summary:
Default file name tokens %d will add an auto-incremented sequential file number
when creating file names.
Numbering starts with 1. If the save directory has other files present with the
same name (excluding
extension) but another number in the place of %d, the next number after that of
the existing file will be
used to create the new file name.
The sequential number can be padded with %Nd where N is a number of total
digits. If the padded token is
used in the
default file name, only file names with a number of the padded length or longer
will be considered when
determining the next sequential number to use in the file name. For example,
with the save name like
'Screenshot-%3d' and a save directory with only 'Screenshot-3,' the next
generated file name will be
'Screenshot-001' since the existing file's number portion is not at least as
long as the padded number
length.

I've submitted a patch to address this issue by making %Nd available when
Spectacle composes the automatic file name: https://phabricator.kde.org/D15059

I was thinking that rather than the current 

"if filename exists, next time it will filename+(#+1)"

or the date format as shown above, perhaps dev can add another option %d or
rather %Nd (where N is any number of 0s or none)
so that you can have the default format filename%ND.jpg (or whatever the user
selects as file type)
since you already added the date format as a type, adding an integer shouldnt
be too farfetched, right?

nevermind that, it works when i switched to using "spectacle" as opposed to the
org.kde.Spectacle dbus call in Shortcuts in System Settings

After many months, I tried spectacle again, and almost everything is on par
with ksnapshot, except this particular issue with the filename##

The new naming convention 
Screenshot_%Y%M%D_%H%m%S

is a workaround, since (in theory) you will never have a duplicate date/time. 
However the original idea of having filename+[some number] that auto updates
per screenshot doesnt seem to work.  

The only other thing is the ability to have multiple ksnapshot windows open
(for different screenshot abilities that retain their settings) is lost.

This needs some design work before work on this can start, but a quick idea
would be to add a radio button:
() Use last filename (+number)
() Use template: ...

Yes - this is a big feature missing in spectacle compared to KSnapshot before. 
Pleas

Also having the same issue. It would be great if it would remember the last
file extension used, and autoincrement if possible.  (Even just remembering the
file extension would be a great usability fix)

Yep, this features are really missed from Spectacle, for example as I paint in
Krita, I like to take snapshots of the process, with Ksnapshot, this was a
breeze, In spectacle, for every screenshot one must manually add the name, file
extension plus navigate to the desired folder. Its just not usable for my
purposes and predefine a folder on the settings is not intuitive, I would have
to change this every time a do a painting :D, I really hope this becomes a
future feature.
