BatchRenameDialog: Renaming using Automatic Numbers can lead to system freeze
I was doing a bit of renaming work on my music collection today and stumbled upon this.
Steps to reproduce:
- Select 2 or more files with the same file extension (this appears to be important)
- Press F2 to open the Batch Rename Dialog
- Remove [Original File Name] and use the Add Button to add Automatic Numbers "1,2,3,4"
- Use "Original Name (Ascending)"
- Press Rename
- Select the same 2 or more files again
- Press F2 to open the Batch Rename Dialog
- Remove [Original File Name] and use the Add Button to add Automatic Numbers "1,2,3,4"
- Now select "Original Name (Descending)"
- Press "Rename" (warning: this may freeze your system)
I'm using Nautilus 3.26.0. I cannot reproduce if I use files which have different file extensions from one another.
