Is this still valid ? When I lose focus now, the renaming isn't cancelled. On Sunday 30 January 2005 23:25, Edwin Schepers wrote:

It is here.
I use focus follows mouse and simply moving the mouse to another window
effectively cancels my rename. I'm using current CVS here.
changing focus (by mouse focus/alt+tab etc) should not cancel the rename (note the behaviour of nautilus), this allows for a user following a tutorial/whatever from a different window to switch back and forth without canceling the rename every time (which is a pain for new users who haven't learnt how to use the terminal yet). This is still present in 4.1. I've discovered a strange behaviour that may be another facet of this bug: - Rename a file by pressing F2 or right-clicking & rename - Right-click the hilighted filename text Konqueror pops up the text editing context menu as expected, but the rename is cancelled. - Now click anywhere else in the window, or on the file itself This is strange: Konqueror acts as if you picked up the file and started dragging it; the file's icon follows the mouse around and if you click one more time you get the option to move/copy the file. @Felix: you should report this issue to dolphin. Reports about file management mode reported against KDE 3 (konqueror) has been closed: konqueror in KDE 3 is no more developed and mantained. All bugs and wishes which could be interesting for Dolphin in KDE 4 (the new KDE file manager) has been collected into a specific list. Please try the new file manager before request new features and report bugs. Before submitting new reports check carefully the already opened Dolphin reports in order to don't add duplicates. Many thanks. |
