Hi Ethan, When I do that (and the "dir namer" datasetNamer is at the same level as the "netCDF namer" datasetNamer) then the bottom-level dataset elements (corresponding to the data files, i.e., the netCDF files) either get named using the "dir namer" datasetNamer (if it comes before the "netCDF namer") or they get named after the "netCDF namer" and the "dir namer" is ignored (if it comes after the "netCDF namer"). Either way, the middle-level dataset elements (corresponding to the directories) retain their directory names.
