Renaming/deleting items

Renaming/deleting items

Postby sunmachine » 14 Sep 2013, 18:03

It would be helpful to be able to press enter to rename items in the CopperLan layout tree view.
So you only need the keyboard to rename items one after each other:
press enter, change the name, [press enter again], press arrow down, press enter, rename, enter and so on.
Or let us tab through items so that they are instantly in "rename mode".
Also double-clicking on an item is an expected way to rename it in my opinion.

Similar for the delete command. Please let us use the delete key for that.

Yes I agree, but the Enter key is already used to expand/shrink a node... so I've assigned the [space] key instead.
Double-click is also available now to rename an item.
And [Delete] or [Backspace] can be used to delete a node.

Great, thanks! :)
Expanding/Shrinking is already possible with the left and right arrow keys, so IMO the enter key would be the better choice for renaming. Then you can enter and exit the edit mode with the same key.

Ok you're right. I'll check if it's possible to re-assign the [Enter] key.
