    Lightbulb feature request - Auto label logs with vin or year/ make/ model.

    I work on a ton of different cars daily over the course of 3-4 days each. Often I need to go back and look in my logs ...\Documents\HP Tuners\VCM Scanner\Logs\ and review a car I did 2 days ago, a week ago, year ago, etc. It would be super neat if we could have the files names go



    from
    19-06-06 18-43-00.hpl

    to maybe
    Date - Time - Last 8 of vin.hpl

    or
    Date - Time - year- make- model- last couple of vin?


    Pretty please?


    PS.. Just checked and I have 58 logs from Monday to Thursday. Several different cars all mixed in there.. In car A, jump out to work on Car B, back to car A, over to car C. It is tedious trying to go back and figure out which is which.

    Vehicle Profiles were supposed to be the answer to this, and many other challenges faced by tuners that access many vehicles.

    Unfortunately, it's behind schedule.

    If you do put this in, please give us the ability to disable it.

    Thanks! In the meantime can we just have the file name appended with the above? It would be a great help I think to a lot of us.

    Create a directory structure by Year, Make, Model or by Customer Name and then save all .hpt and .hpl files within the directory structure and you won't need this feature. Especially helpful if you remember people by thier cars. An older LS swapped vehicle may have a 2003 tahoe ecu and you're not going to remember that for everyone's car.
