Unable to Rename View Map Folders

Gerry Leonor

Was the option to rename a folder through the Right Click pop-up removed?

i don't like having the Properties Tab open all the time & it seems quicker with the Right Click pop-up option.

Curious.
The Rename command is there in the context menu even in AC17 so it was removed in AC18. I can't find a good reason why.
I will report this to Graphisoft.

Still cannot rename after installing the update, so it must be intentional
Just change in the properties below the view map

You should be able to just click on the name and rename it right there too.

Cheers,

Hi guys,

You are right, this should be working. The developers are investigating why this has happened in v18.

In the meantime - as Gerald already mentioned - you can rename the Folders from the Properties tab.

Best regards,
Csaba
