Cursor focus when editing filenames

[scorpiokeys2412]

Hi all,

When renaming files using Everything (i.e. right click a file > rename file) I'm seeing the cursor lose focus within half a second & it then switches back to non-edit mode if I don't continue typing straight away / at a rapid pace.

Is there a setting that can make this a little more forgiving? i.e. in line with attempting the same file rename action using Windows Explorer?

Thank you for the issue report scorpiokeys2412,

I am unable to reproduce the issue my end.
Could you please capture a debug log:

• In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, check Verbose.
• From the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, click Start Debug Logging....
• Right click a file and click Rename.
• Wait for Everything to automatically cancel the rename.
• From the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, click Stop Debug Logging....
  ---This will open your %TEMP%\Everything Debug Log.txt
• Please upload this file in a bug report

Many thanks - have just submitted the bug report with debug log.

Thank you for the logs.

Could you please repeat the process.
Please make sure Verbose is checked under Tools -> Debug.
Otherwise, the rename events are not logged.

Thanks - just resent.

Thank you for the verbose logs.

Are you using single click open?

From the logs, the rename is cancelled because an action is performed on mouse hover.
-I am working on a fix..

Thanks for spotting that.

Yes I have the single click open set at the moment per my Windows Explorer default.

Would you recommend I change this to double click for now?

[void]

Just in Everything for now, under Tools -> Options -> Results -> Single click Open = Double click

[scorpiokeys2412]

Will do - thanks!

Everything 1.5.0.1388a will no longer apply the mouse hover action when renaming.

Renaming should no longer be canceled when hovering over an item.

Thanks so much for resolving this one!
