In Nodepad++, it is possible to right-click on a tab, and then rename the file. I want something similar in Kate. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a file Actual Results: No rename option Expected Results: A rename option somewhere
The document tree already has that feature, but I just checked that it is broken on Windows :(
(In reply to Kåre Särs from comment #1) > The document tree already has that feature, but I just checked that it is > broken on Windows :( Is there a way to use the rename option in Project View too? Or is that a read-only View? Also, can we have a shortcut (F2)? Right-click -> Rename is a tedious approach.
Dear user, this wish list item is now closed, as it wasn't touched in the last year and no contributor stepped up to implement it. The Kate/KTextEditor team is small and we can just try to keep up with fixing bugs. Therefore wishes that show no activity for a years or more will be closed from now on to keep at least a bit overview about 'current' wishs of the users. If you want your feature to be implemented, please step up to provide some patch for it. If you think it is really needed, you can reopen your request, but keep in mind, if no new good arguments are made and no people get attracted to help out to implement it, it will expire in a year again. We have a nice website https://kate-editor.org that provides all the information needed to contribute, please make use of it. Patches can be handed in via https://phabricator.kde.org/differential/ Greetings Christoph Cullmann
