Cannot rename file if Name column is not first?

Post by neko »

I have Type column first, then Name. Now, when I try to rename file, xplorer2 told that "This column cannot be renamed in place; Please put Name column first."

Is this bug or "feature"? I like to keep my columns order I like :(

I reckon it's a bug.
However, if you use Ctrl+F2 (change type) then you can change the name of the file. It's not in-line rename so not as convenient.

So, if this is a bug, do I have to make bug report separately? Nikos?

this is the intended behaviour, by design
you can use the ctrl+F2 workaround as mentioned

Hmm, wondering why? Just curious, I already re-ordered my columns.
