Version: 1.99 (using Devel) OS: Linux Hi, the rename inline function is there in the config dialog but commented-out in the source code. views/dolphinview.cpp:594 Regards Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: Enable the option, the dialog opens ... Expected Results: Either the option can be removed or the code fixed. (yes, I was forced to write something here ... ;))
For the 4.8 release I most probably won't be able to implement a "rename-inline" functionality for the new view-engine and will remove the option temporary from the dialog. The plan is to implement the "rename-inline" functionality for 4.9 in a way that "rename inline" will be default and no option is necessary at all.

Remove "Rename inline" option The new view-engine currently does not support inline-renaming and because of more important pending issues this cannot be implemented for the 4.8 release of KDE applications. The plan for 4.9 is to implement inline-renaming again and to make it "so good" (tm) that it is always turned on (-> there is no need anymore for an option to disable it ;-) CCBUG: 286893 M +0 -4 dolphin/src/settings/dolphin_generalsettings.kcfg M +0 -8 dolphin/src/settings/general/behaviorsettingspage.cpp M +0 -1 dolphin/src/settings/general/behaviorsettingspage.h M +2 -0 dolphin/src/views/dolphinview.cpp http://commits.kde.org/kde-baseapps/79bb28ec3a8150ed4984f0cd4ee5425bf8d9aac1
oh my god. in kde 4.8 there will be no inline-renaming in dolphin? no chance? please try..this is the most often used function for me right after viewing and copy&paste. I would also see light, if there would be a chance for 4.8.1..
> oh my god. [...] I think the world won't collapse if inline-renaming is temporary unavailable for 4.8 and you need to type the new name into a window ;-) This is no small patch that can be done in a few hours (... if doing it right) and it won't be possible to fix this for 4.8.x But as said above: The plan is to make it default + the only available way for renaming in 4.9.

after a while using the renaming dialog with F2 shortcut, it feels quite comfortable..no more problems with line breaks and too little space :-)
Thats nice to hear ;-) I hope I'll be able to merge the benefits of both approaches in 4.9 without their drawbacks...
