In-line renaming: show 'check button' over the file's icon.

Post by *wanderer »

When in-line renaming is activated, an OK checkmark button appears at the end of the line. When in brief mode in a folder with at least one very large filename, if a small filename is renamed, the mouse must travel all the way to the right of the window in order to press the check button. It would be nice if one more check button appeared over the file's icon.

You can show the button to the left of the edit box if you prefer:
wincmd.ini
[Configuration]
InplaceOkButton=2

Or remove it with InplaceOkButton=0.

Ah, didn't know that, thanks. The most convenient side for this button is a per-case thing, sometimes (in long filenames) it's the right side, other times (short filenames) it may be the left. It also depends on where the mouse pointer currently is.

An idea would be to have a InplaceOkButton=3 (auto) which would display the button on the side which is nearest to there the mouse pointer currently is).
