Description Patrick Silva 2022-02-15 13:31:04 UTC
SUMMARY
Sometimes I want to rename two or more files using an already in use file name or an already in use file name with a little modification.
To do it, currently I need to copy the file name I want to use (mainly if it's a long file name), select all files I want to rename, right-click on any selected file, choose 'Rename...' and then replace 'New name #' in the renaming dialog with 'the previously copied file name #'.
Using the name of the right-clicked file would make this use case easier, I think.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. select two or more files
2. right-click on any selected file, choose 'Rename...'

OBSERVED RESULT
mass renaming dialog opens suggesting 'New name #' file name instead of 'the name of the file right-clicked in the step 2 #'.

EXPECTED RESULT
mass renaming dialog should suggest 'the name of the file right-clicked in the step 2 #'.
