File/Folder rename does not correctly highlight the name [CLOSED]
When renaming file or folder, it does not correctly highlight the name, it stops at the first dot "." in the name, it looks like NC can't properly detect the extensions.
Re: File/Folder rename does not correctly highlight the name
I can't reproduce it locally - could you provide more information?
Specific steps would be great.

Re: File/Folder rename does not correctly highlight the name
Yes, no problem. E.g. create folder "folder.1.name this is folder" and when trying to rename the folder, it will only select the part "folder.1" and the rest is not highlighted:) Image in the attachment:)
Re: File/Folder rename does not correctly highlight the name
That's the intended behaviour - NC decomposed "folder.1.name this is folder" as filename="folder.1" and extension="name this is folder".
Upon renaming NC highlights filenames without extensions since usually they aren't changed.

Re: File/Folder rename does not correctly highlight the name
Thank you for the information, but I don't understand
Folders does not have extensions, since it's folder, at least in my understanding, so it's really confusing for me. Would it be possible to have an option in the Preferences to always select the whole file name including extension, for example? That might help in this case ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)

Re: File/Folder rename does not correctly highlight the name
Well that is incorrect - directories absolutely can have extensions and MacOS uses them a lot.
".app" is the most prominent example, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundle_(macOS).
