File renaming

SUMMARY
***
File selection and file renaming look very similar. The only difference between them is the blinking cursor. User can confuse it easily. Also renaming animation is kind of bad, look at attachment.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make sure "Rename inline" is checked in dolphin settings. It is on by default.
2. Try renaming a folder or file

OBSERVED RESULT
File rename look very similar to file selection and can easily confuse users. Also the animation is kind of unsettling. 

EXPECTED RESULT
File rename and file selection should be easily distinguishable.

Comment 1 Sebastian Friedl 2024-03-11 16:01:51 UTC
Previous Dolphin versions used to draw an "input field" frame around the file name to indicate that the file name is edited, but now the frame is gone (a comparison between 23.8.1 and 24.2.0 is attached).
