GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 140188
No auto-rename focus on second or third 'unnamed' new folder
Last modified: 2004-12-29 17:49:46 UTC
1. create a new folder in the icon view (leave default name) 2. create another folder (default_name." 1") You won't get a rename focus in step 2, because vfs_status won't be GNOME_VFS_OK but GNOME_VFS_ERROR_FILE_EXISTS. This leads to done_callback called with NULL as new_uri.
Created attachment 26695 [details] [review] Proposed Patch
Comment on attachment 26695 [details] [review] Proposed Patch I had a short discussion about this with Alex: The return value in this case shouldn't be GNOME_VFS_ERROR_*; the file got created, but with a different name than intended. This needs fixing in gnome-vfs though.

Kaveri wrote in #133617: I am running Gnome community head build(2.5.2), dated 28th Jan 2004. 1. Open nautilus window say home folder 2. Select File -> Create Folder 3. A new folder "untitled folder" will be created and the user is given an option to rename the folder 4. Select the same select File -> Create Folder option some 2-3 times Observation : The user is not asked for renaming the subsequent new folder which are created as "untitled folder 1", "untitled folder 2" and so on. If the user is in list view or the nautilus window is very small, the newly created folders will not be visible and the user will not know the name of the newly created folder's name, until he is conversant with the nomenclature nautilus uses. The user has to explicitly select the folder and rename the same. Expected Behaviour: Nautilus should prompt the user for renaming the folder. This works fine with creation of new files. Everytime a new file is created the user is given an option to rename the same.

For me, the folder _never_ gets focus even for the first one if I am in list view.
