I am also facing this behavior. - List view - Clicking a File or Folder - Choosing Rename either from Menu or by pressing F2 makes no difference - Typing exits the rename mode,and the search box on the down right pops up containing the typed character
Additional observation: -Trying to rename a file/folder which is *not* on top of the list and then typing "d" does not exit edit mode immediately, instead the file at the top of the list view is suddenly selected and in edit mode. Typing "d" again ( top entry is still selected and in edit mode) now exits edit mode like other chars and the search box pops up with one "d" -- 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/1574614 Title: Losing focus when trying to rename file or folder Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Nautilus is losing focus when i try to rename a file or folder: Steps to reproduce: - Open Nautilus - Go to Home - Highlight a folder, e.g. "Pictures" - Press F2 or right click "Rename..." - Press any key -> Focus lost ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: nautilus 1:3.18.4.is.3.14.3-0ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-21.37-generic 4.4.6 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-21-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Apr 25 14:19:07 2016 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-10-28 (909 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016.1) SourcePackage: nautilus UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to xenial on 2016-04-22 (2 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1574614/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
