Cannot rename folders #25
Comments
Could it be related to the fact that there are spaces in the folder name? |
I don't think so? I can rename those in the normal file browser. Looking at the error it looks as though the folder name is being appended twice because maybe the root path is different than the core rename function expects? |
😆 ok, that looks like your statement about the folder name appended twice is right |
Interestingly |
This is not limited to directories: if you create a new unnamed file via context menu, but an unnamed file already exists in parent directory it is the parent directory files which will get selected for rename-after-creation behaviour. I wonder if we could improve the rename upstream so that it selects based on the path and not based on the name? |
@krassowski thanks for commenting. My PR in this repo #28 is not right, we should probably improve upstream instead, as you suggest. |
Hi, |
+1. Hope this could be resovled soon, this is a fantastic extension, thank you for your work! |
Created this PR to work with JL 3.6.x. For other versions also, something similar has to be done, i.e. patch the corresponding rename method. |
A +1 on this issue being an inconvenience. In an educational setting, the extension is incredibly useful for novice users who struggle with paths and remembering where files are... The same users are also amongst the least likely to be able to go onto the commandline to rename the directories there... |
