Inline Rename

This page contains options that control how the inline rename function behaves.

• Automatically number files when names clash: When using inline rename, if you try to rename a file to a name that is already in use, this option causes Opus to automatically append a number to the new filename. For example, if you enter the new name "Manuscript.txt" and a file of that name already existed, Opus would automatically rename the file to "Manuscript (1).txt" instead of showing an error.
• Retain cursor position when moving to next/previous file: When this option is on and you press the Up or Down Cursor keys to move from one file to another in inline rename mode, the cursor position within the file will be maintained. See the Inline Rename section for a more detailed discussion of this subject.
• Default selection mode: This lets you change which part of the filename (if any) is automatically selected when inline rename mode begins. If the Retain cursor position option is turned on, the selection will also be applied to subsequent files as you move through the list with the Up or Down Cursor keys.
