GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 162207
File rename doesn't work while download in progress
Last modified: 2004-12-25 11:25:34 UTC
While a file is being downloaded or copied into a directory, other existing files in the same directory cannot be renamed. What seems to happen is that the screen gets frequently refreshed to reflect the increasing size of the file being downloaded into the directory, and the attempt to rename the file treats this refresh as if the user had hit enter, and hence completes the file rename without giving the user the chance to actually enter a new file name. This is irritating if you do lots of large file downloads.
