Is it possible to put the Concert right click file menu actions like, tag - filename, in the actions custom box? I use the actions custom box to do a directory rename, but it wold be nice to do a one click action to do all my convert actions. Thanks! ---

If you want to apply the a certain kind of file-renaming numerous times and want to store that mask then create an action of the type Format tag-field for the field \_filename Enter as format-string the mask that you otherwise would use for the tag-filename converter. ---

I did a new action, format value , but in field all I see is TaggingTime.

To make clear, I want to add actions, like Convert Tag \> Filename in the Actions custom menu, for a one stop shop of converting Please enter the string \_FILENAME into the field "Field". At format string enter the mask that you usually use in the converter Tag-Filename. The thread that you have linked in the other post describes the revert action of the converter "Filename - Tag". ---
