Description Stefan Naumann 2016-09-03 18:46:10 UTC
A an project you can have folders to manage your files, for example putting audio-only-files and audio-video-files into two seperate folders. Creating a folder is easy, then renaming it is pretty hard. Upon double-click (or context-menu -> rename folder), entering some text, after some characters the old text will re-appear, deleting your changes. Unless you are very fast entering the wanted text and pressing enter it becomes nearly impossible to rename a folder or a file in the project. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an project, may add some files
2. Create a folder
3. Try to rename a folder or a file

Actual Results:  
The original text keeps reappearing when renaming the file. 

Expected Results:  
The edited text stays, until I press enter for "saving" the text

happens both with folders and with files.

Cannot reproduce. Might be a packaging issue... Don't know if anyone else can reproduce?
Comment 2 Wegwerf 2016-09-04 10:06:25 UTC
I cannot either. As I'm constantly working with project folders all the time in my projects, I would have immediately cried "wolf" here.
Comment 3 Wegwerf 2016-09-19 17:25:03 UTC
Without further details that allow us to reproduce this issue so we can debug and fix it, I'm afraid that this bug report has to be closed until further information surfaces. This is necessary to avoid us getting drowned in stale reports that cannot be solved without help from the reporters. Thank you very much for your understanding.

Hello.
I have new information! The bug persists in 16.08.2. Try renaming a folder when KDEnlive still produces preview-images. Maybe that is the reason for this bug.
Comment 5 Andrew Shark 2017-03-13 21:40:40 UTC
Can reproduce this. I have recorded a video demonstration: https://youtu.be/IQXAgs6eWQk

Renaming is impossible while kdenlive is caching a video clip.
Comment 6 Wegwerf 2017-03-17 16:57:45 UTC
-->CONFIRMED with recent git master from ppa; trying to rename a clip that's the source for transcoding isn't possible, as the in-place editor constantly resets its contents.

Please try with the actual Kdenlive version 18.08.2
Comment 8 Andrew Shark 2018-10-13 07:07:12 UTC
In 18.08.2 the bug is still presented: https://youtu.be/KRhpqO23ow0
