Lightroom/Photo AI - Choose suffix and choose subfolder

[adding Per user on Facebook community forum, Vladimir Kelman]

There are a couple of convenience features in DxO PureRAW 4 (Topaz competitor), implementing which in Photo AI would remove a lot of tedious time-consuming work (in my opinion (as a Topaz user and as a software developer / UX specialist).

When using as Adobe Lightroom (Classic) plug-in, DxO PureRAW 4 allows to:

  1. Automatically add a suffix to resulting file name(s).
  2. Place resulting file(s) into a subfolder or a different folder.
  3. In Lightroom, place resulting files into a sub-collection.

On the other side, when I use Topaz AI and select to create copies of original files, rather than update originals , it automatically inserts a a suffix “-2” into file names and appends results into the same collection.

“-2” suffix is not what I or most users would want, it should be easy to specify which suffix to use. As a result, I spend time renaming results - unnecessary, tedious and error-prone work.

To clarify: DxO PureRAW allow to choose the suffix it adds to original file and the location of improved copy.
Topaz Photo AI currently does not.
