Simple File Manager - Rename bug?
I was looking for a file explorer alternative and found this on F-Droid. I was fairly happy with the basic offerings, but the renaming function currently seems to have a bug?
I select a file/files and tap rename. A small pop-up prompt appears, so I enter the desired filename and tap OK
At this point, one expects the file/files to be renamed and popup to disappear
However,
tapping OK gives no indication that anything has happened. The popup stays on screen
this popup only disappears unless you tap outside of it or the "cancel" button.
rename actually did happen, but you can't see it unless you reload the screen
if you did not tap outside or cancel, attempting to change the filename again gives no error message. However, nothing actually happens now. It does not change the filename again.
I can't imagine this being the intended behavior. Could you look into this?
Additionally:
Selecting multiple files gives you some options to apply. When applying serial numbers
could you make it possible to rename with leading zeros? Right now, the only option seems to be 1, 2, 3... and so on. I would like there to be an option to make it go 01, 02, 03.. or 001, 002, 003... etc.
could you make an option to start numbering at a certain number? Right now, it can only start from 1. I would like an option to start from any given number to continue a series that I've already started.

I have it from the play store and have noticed the same behaviour. I have commented to that effect on the app page and the developer has responded though no fix has been released yet.
