If I have the rename function set to rename files with a numerical sequence, then 'import selected' does not import the files. 'Import all' works. 'Import selected' only works if I choose to keep the original names of the files. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. I am on Windows 10, importing files from a memory card to an external hard drive 2. If I choose rename file with a numerical sequence, then select some files on the memory card, the files are not imported - there is no response. 3. A successful import is achieved if either I choose 'select all' or choose to keep the original file names. OBSERVED RESULT I am not able to import files if both 'file rename' and 'import selected' is chosen. A successful import is achieved if either I choose 'select all' or choose to keep the original file names. EXPECTED RESULT I would expect to be able to import selected files and rename them at the same time.

The renaming cannot actually have any influence, something else must trigger the problem. Please post your renaming string. Maik 1979306 2 antonrosenfeld 2020-11-27 15:09:34 +0000 Thanks for getting back so quickly. I have just tried it again, and now it seems to be working OK, I can't reproduce the problem either. This seems strange as I have had this error over a the period of a month. I will keep an eye on the settings and see if it is something I am doing that is causing it. FYI here is an example of the renaming string Brandon Woods Railway Bridge # 1979473 3 metzpinguin 2020-11-28 15:25:01 +0000 Git commit a997ab334e9aeb87b0249259fb1f7da1f4019f95 by Maik Qualmann.

This can be quite time consuming when there are thousands of files in the view. This function was unnecessarily performed twice and was therefore much slower afterwards. Should you still find a problem, open the bug again. Maik 1979760 5 antonrosenfeld 2020-11-29 15:56:03 +0000 Many thanks for your help. Looking into it further, I think there may be a problem with my card reader on my laptop, which would explain why the problem is intermittent. Importing when connected directly to the camera works perfectly. Sorry that I didn't look at this first.
