Redefine hotkey F6 does not work

[stuermer01]

Hello,

I have redefined F6 key in the Settings->Misc.->Redefine to cm_Move_Only but it still makes Rename/Move.

There's not really a difference between Rename and Move operations. BTW, cm_MoveOnly is the exact command mapped to F6 by default, which is why cm_CommandBrowser shows F6 in brackets. However, I'm at a loss in regards to the difference between cm_MoveOnly and cm_RenMov...

cm_RenMov is the same as when clicking on the F6 Move button. It reacts to keyboard modifiers like the shift key = rename.
cm_MoveOnly always calls the move function and ignores keyboard modifiers.
cm_RenameOnly always calls rename, either in place (one file) or with a dialog box when multiple files are selected
cm_renamesinglefile always calls rename for the current file in the active panel, even if other files are selected

Thanks! I always forget to check the modifier keys...

I don't use any keyboard modifiers. I just want that F6 if mapped to cm_MoveOnly does "move only" and not "rename" if I mistakenly enter some characters. In this case there should be an error message "wrong path".
That's why this is a BUG.

I suggest you make a suggestion to the author in what way he can best change his program so people can do what you want.
