allow filenames with full stops

[Larissa Joos]

I would love to be able to use full stops in filenames. You can´t name a file you want to upload via ftrack connect for example 1.2.3, which is really necessary in our case.

Hi @Larissa Joos, some conventions are needed to keep data consist and simplify the logic in the applications.
3 dotted names are commonly referred to file sequences as : <prefix>.<index>.<postfix> and connect handles them as such.

Would changing from dots to something different like underscores ( 1_2_3 )help in your case ?

Cheers.
