Description Sebastian L 2009-10-17 12:58:14 UTC

Version:           1.0.0-beta6 (rev.: 1036088M) (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When I want to rename an image, the advanced renaming dialog is shown. This is really good, when I want to rename many images. But when I just want to change a typo this is really annoying because I have to use dolphin to do this.
My proposal would be to show a normal text edit field when clicking rename(F2) and add a second menu entry like "advanced rename".

Uh I don't like that. But what could be done is that when only one image is selected, the current name is filled in. Otherwise we get too many rename buttons / actions etc. This is confusing.

SVN commit 1036529 by aclemens:

When single file is selected, set the current filename as input pattern and
highlight the line edit widget.
