I frequently run into this problem whenever I want to rename a bookmark into "name@server". As soon as I type the "@" symbol on a German keyboard, that is pressing "AltGr + Q", the focus gets lost and the renaming stops.
The two workarounds are: 1.) copy the @-symbol from somewhere else by Ctrl+C and then paste it into the new bookmark name by Ctrl+V 2.) use the bookmark manager from the top menu for any renaming -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1356046 Title: Renaming bookmarks in Nautilus sidebar stops after pressing certain key-combinations Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Users are unable to rename bookmarks in Nautilus using names with certain characters (such as diacritic characters or upper case letters). Steps to reproduce: - Make a bookmark (CTRL+D) of current location - Right click on the bookmark and click "Rename" - Try to type in the name using the polish letter "ł" (ALT+L) or a R (SHIFT+R). (Editing stops right after pressing right ALT in the former case, whereas you need to press both the keys in the latter.)
