View Layer token
Well, title says it all... but I'll to explain it better:
I do work a lot with different "ViewLayers / RenderLayers" and sometimes I need to re-render again single or multiple separates layers and I have to go changing the name of the output image file again, and again... time consuming and prone to typing or naming errors.
So I propose to add a mini "token" system on the output render tab like "#LayerName" so every time I re-render a single ViewLayer it changes the output automatically.
A couple visual examples as image to ilustrate it better.
Example A: Used token for file name. Example B: Used token twice, folder name and file name.
I hope it makes sense...
Cheers,

We need tokens for everything. camera name, lens, scene name, .... the only existing token in Blender right now is
#used for the frame number.I'd also like such a function - just pointing out that you can also use the File Output Node in the Compositor for this:
So interesting, didn't knew that so I'll try asap. Thx.
