Rename
The following settings are offered for the renaming of files and folders:
- Allow rename on slow double click
If this setting is checked and an item (file or folder) is slowly double-clicked (two single clicks), the item name is overlaid by an editor containing the item name. This allows the name to be changed directly in the list, without opening a dialog window. - Delay in milliseconds
If "Allow rename on slow double click" is checked, this field allows to defined the maximum time in milliseconds between both clicks of the double-click. - Use dialog window for rename
If this setting is checked and the menu item "File → Rename" or the hotkey "F2" are activated, a dialog window pops up for renaming the highlighted item. If two or more items are selected, the dialog window "Multi rename..." pops up automatically. - Select only file name
If this setting is checked, only the file name (without extension) is selected in the editor.
Create file/folder - name suggestion
When a new file or folder is created, names will be suggested based on the date and timestamp (date and time) formats as defined here.
- Date format
Enter or select the date format used to build the name suggestion. - Timestamp format
Enter or select the timestamp format used to build the name suggestion.
Examples:
- Menu item "Folder → New" or the hotkey "F7":
The popup dialog suggests folder names which are generated from the date and timestamp. - Menu item "Tools → Desktop snapshot..." or the hotkey "Shift+Ctrl+F11":
The timestamp is suggested as the file name.
If the setting "create subfolder from current date" is checked, the folder name is created from the current date.
