Make Image Parent/ Grandparent Folder Name tokens available in C1 Pro

Please make the "Image Grandparent Folder Name" token available in C1 Pro and not just the Studio.

As an amateur photographer I'm already paying a fair amount for software, and Studio doesn't add any value for someone like me. I just want to be able to spend a little less time shuffling files around when I do image exports, which is where the missing grandparent token is really killing me.

Context: my scanned film photos are structured like

- 2025-01-01 Location, camera, film/

- negatives/

neg01.raw


so the image parent folder name is always "negatives", but for export I just want the grandparent folder name to be the export location.

Current workaround

Export catalog folders one by one and rename then from "negatives" to whatever.

    Hi, thank you for your feedback.

    This is however a suggestion related to our business decisions rather than a feature request, I will mark the topic as such. We usually do not comment and debate on business decisions.
