> [@SpirosG](#): > > It should actually be `%track%.%artist% - %title%` 😉 > > there is a dot between tracknumber and artist @SpirosG is right. Try that. No regular expression needed. Esp. as this is a tagging program and no file renamer. ---

If you already know - why do you ask? The code example that you provide does not help anybody as you do not say with which action or function you use it and for which field. ---

Then please supply the link so that others can also benefit from the full and correct example. Also, the forum guide lines ask you to use the search function _before_ you post a topic - as there are so many answers already, an observation which is apparently true also in this case. ---

> [@SpirosG](#): > > `%track%.%artist% - %title%` Looking at the image more closely, I see that there is no space between the hyphen and the title. The format string for **Convert \> FileName-Tag** should be: > **%track%.%artist% -%title%** This should update the tags directly from the filename. Once complete, the new filenames can be formatted accordingly as stated earlier using the following format string for **Convert \> Tag-Filename** : > **%artist% - %title%** or > **%artist% -%title%** if you wish. ---
