[SOLVED] 6.4.2222: Question about folder creation and renaming

(1/2) > >>

Oliver:
Hello,

I just updated to 6.4.2222 and I noticed the behavior changed when creating new folders or files using the context menu ("Right click -> New -> Folder" or "Right click -> New -> Text Document").

In this version the folder gets created with the name "New Folder" and I have to press F2 to be able to rename it.
In the previous version after having created the new folder it was possible to rename it without pressing F2 because the inline rename function was activated automatically.

Is this change by design? Is there an option to revert back to the previous behavior?

AlanJB:
Confirmed :-(

Tools -> Create Folder works OK, as does the hotkey.

Mathias (Author):
Ahh Yes of course that fails.  Forgot about new folder from context menu. never uses that..
Hm damn tricky to fix..

AlanJB:
I never use the context menu either, which is why I forgot to test in Beta; sorry  ::)

But "tricky" != "impossible" ;)

Mathias (Author):
No not impossible..  just tricky == "not a quick fix, will require a bit of time"

Issue is that now it does
 * Create a new folder,
 * Rescan to make sure it is shown
 * Enter Rename mode..

Problem is that "Rescan" is now happening in the background. So when "Enter rename mode" is called the scan is not finished completed. The items it tries to set as rename mode on does not exists in the view yet.
