topic Use model builder to generate output file names in ModelBuilder Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/modelbuilder-questions/use-model-builder-to-generate-output-file-names/m-p/1364762#M3952 <P>Hello,<BR /><BR />I am using Arcmap 10.8.2 to delineate watersheds and I have used model builder to automate my work.<BR /><BR />Is it possible to generate the output file names as well? I have been trying to do this without any luck.<BR />I need the file names to be as follows: 1-160_FDir.<BR />The 1-160 is my structure number that the user will have to input. The "FDri" portion is the indicator for which raster it is.<BR /><BR />I have no experience with phyton so any help would be appreciated.&nbsp;<BR /><BR /></P> Thu, 28 Dec 2023 16:46:36 GMT JoshDawe 2023-12-28T16:46:36Z Use model builder to generate output file names https://community.esri.com/t5/modelbuilder-questions/use-model-builder-to-generate-output-file-names/m-p/1364762#M3952 <P>Hello,<BR /><BR />I am using Arcmap 10.8.2 to delineate watersheds and I have used model builder to automate my work.<BR /><BR />Is it possible to generate the output file names as well?
