Rename dialog - delet characters then Apply

Help & Support
#1

As shown in the screen grabs, when I first select some leading characters to delete, then press the Delete key, then click Apply, the new name field is incorrectly shifted left. The rename operation itself is OK.

Regards, AB

For some reason the 2nd and 3rd grabs get corrupted on upload to the forum (they are OK on my PC) but you can see the relevant section of the images.

That's actually correct behavior, but can be confusing if you don't know what's going on.

When you push Apply, the macro is applied to the filenames, but is not cleared.

The preview list is then re-generated based on the new filenames. The Current Name column shows the new filenames.

The New Name column shows what would happen if the macro was applied a second time.
