renaming action triggered while browsing folders

Question

I found out a bug: while you are browsing folders (menu open), if you:

1. one left click on a folder;
2. then left click again on that folder to trigger rename
3. then click away to exit from rename mode

when you will double click on the folder to acces into it, you will trigger again renaming action instead of opening action

Answer 1

That is actually not a bug in yEd (the file dialog is a feature of the Java platform, not something we created). Moreover, I think this is not really a bug at all, because I have seen this behavior in other (Windows) applications (such as e.g. Windows Explorer) as well. (Have not yet experienced this on Linux, though.)

Personally, when working on Windows, I try to double-click the folder icon instead of the directory name to prevent this from happening.
