Long file name renaming trouble

[seamoon]

When I rename a file name. If the name is long like below, home button doesn't go at the beginning of filename, instead it goes just before "34222323232"
I didn't have such trouble in ACDsee.

Am I clear? Just want to home button acts as any other app: Going beginning of the file name. So I can put much easier "+" mark for used or sent pictures.

Right, but it's the standard behavior of this control
You can test in windows explorer...

Can't confirm this. Here (XP SP3) the cursor goes back to the beginning.

I have Xp Sp3 too and Dstruct is right, this is Xnview's bug.

Obviously because you're using symbols or thumbnail view!Switch to list or details view and it'll work properly ...


But I must say that this is working fine here in XnView 1.97.2 too! I can get in front of the first letter fine via POS1 (HOME) key! No prob.

Yes I want this fix exactly for thumbnail view. I don't want switch other modes just because renaming a picture.

1.97.2 buggy too. Try my file name example: sil545456453434222323232.jpg

Working fine. Hit F2 ...

No, try my example press f2 and then hit home see it'll go at the beginning of jpg.
Like this:
sil545456453434222323232.(cursor is here)jpg

Like this:
sil545456453434222323232.(cursor is here)jpg

This is what I get:


-> Select sil545456453434222323232.jpg

-> hit F2
=> sil545456453434222323232(cursor is here).jpg

-> hit HOME
=> (cursor is here)sil545456453434222323232.jpg

After f2 the whole file name is highlighted (cursor doesn't in place where you were mentioned).

[Dstruct]

After f2 the whole file name is highlighted (cursor doesn't in place where you were mentioned).

Not here. A dialog pops up in XnView. That dialog shows two edit fields. One with th suffix and one with the prefix (file extension). Cursor is placed in the first field. So it can't be in front of the extension because extension is in separate edit field.

I mean in place renaming which is faster & buggy.

[Dstruct]

Inplace renaming doesn't work here at all. I thought clicking twice would go into rename mode!?
