Rename Special for Folders?

[mrbosco]

Any way to do a Rename Special for folders?
I'd like to easily convert underscores to spaces.

[highend]

What exactly do you mean, how to do that (which pattern) or is the "Rename Special" context menu item missing?

[mrbosco]

It's greyed out for folders.
I want to rename Folder A_B_C to A B C

[highend]

It's greyed out for folders

Not here oO
Version of XY?

[mrbosco]

16.60
Is it in a different place
File...Rename Special is greyed out when I have a folder selected.
Is there a rename special for folders somewhere else?

[highend]

I guess you mean 16.60.0200?

No, that context / menu command is the same for files and folders.

[mrbosco]

Is there anyway I can post a screenshot?
Certain file options are greyed out whena folder is selected.

When you post a reply, there is "Filename" line under your editable area and a "Browse..." button on the right side of it. Select your picture, it's automatically attached to your post afterwards.

[mrbosco]

OK, just did

[highend]

And now show a screenshot of what you have really selected (and where: tree, list, ...)

[mrbosco]

Any folder selected greys out some of the file menu options.

Rename and Rename Special always apply to the selected item(s) in the focused control. So:

To rename a folder in the tree, you have to select it and focus the tree.*
To rename a folder in the list, you have to select it and focus the list.

* Indeed, Rename Special does not work in the tree, only in the list!

[highend]

And you have selected a folder in the tree but the focus is elsewhere?

[mrbosco]

The focus is on the folder in the tree on the left.

[highend]

Ah, ok. Don't know if it's a bug or intended... But those menu items are not available for a selected folder in the tree
