Description ebakke 2013-10-03 18:12:51 UTC

OutlineView currently supports in-place editing of node names (e.g. by double-clicking a leaf node that provides a RenameAction, after setting outlineView.setDefaultActionAllowed(false)).

Suggestion: When a node is double-clicked to rename it, the original string should be selected in the in-place cell editor. Currently the cursor is simply located at the end of the string (non-standard when comparing to for instance file renaming behavior in Windows Explorer).
