Description Richard Knausenberger 2019-11-12 12:17:42 UTC
When I rename a file with Dolphin, it automatically scrolls to the currently renamed file. This is annoying if you want to rename several screenshot in one big folder (called screenshot1, screenshot2, etc.) and you have to scroll back to the others every time.
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2019-11-12 20:16:14 UTC
It scrolls to the renamed file because the renamed file stays selected. If we didn't scroll to it, it would be selected but non-visible, which Dolphin users found confusing before we implemented the auto-scroll behavior, and we got bug reports on it.

What I think would help your use case is a way to instantly start renaming the next file in sequence after renaming the first one. This feature is tracked by the following bug reports:
- Bug 403931
- Bug 269987

And there is a patch which implements it, once merged: https://phabricator.kde.org/D20427

Would this meet your needs?
