I know there's a limit within Switch that is less than Mac OS - would like to know the official number...

Hi Jugganaut,

We are having to work with this issue as well as it effects our ganged layouts in our workflows. Has anybody been able to reach out to you about this and a possible hotfix or workaround - furthermore, as to why there is a character limit in Switch to begin with?

Please let us know as we are eager to understand why this was implemented,
Thank You.

Hello Printlab and Jugganaut,

There is no character limit in Switch on OSX that I am aware of. I also did a quick test by having a rename job add characters until it errors and the error came when the filename (Switch unique prefix + filename + extension) reached 255 characters, which is the OSX limit to my knowledge.

What is the limit you experience and where in Switch do you experience it?
