Hitting DEL key while renaming file deletes file [Bug]

Post by Guest »

Hi,

I just tried to rename a file. I selected it in the browser, hit F2, and started editing the name. I wanted to delete three characters and thus hit DEL three times. Result: three deleted images. Not quite what I wanted.

You're right, a bad bug :bugconfirmed: in XnView 1.68. The same when you press Esc key to abort file renaming: Instead of aborting renaming, the browser is closed. Think Pierre will fix this, soon.

Thanks! Looking forward to the fix and trying to keep my fingers away from the DEL key in the meantime.
