A small request - labling layers function

When creating a new layer it shows up highlighted with some ‘layer (#)’ name assigned. Because it’s highlighted I automatically begin typing in a name I want to use and then… I find the command menu showing up on my main window. Then of course I must back up and double click to get into the titling function on the new layer. Why cant a new layer created be ready for a title the first time round instead of requiring the additonal clicking?

I’m afraid I don’t follow this request. When I click the + button in the Layers panel, I can immediately start typing a new name.

Here’s a vid. When I click to make a new layer the name is highlighted but typing takes me to the command dialog box

Thanks for the video. That’s really odd. That’s certainly not what I’m seeing. I have tested this with both Command options in sidebar and Command options dialogs, with the same result. Can you please run ExportPreferences and send along your .plist file?

Hi Dan!

Thanks @JKayten-

Do you still see this behavior in the latest RhinoWIP or is this a Rhino 5 for Mac issue only?

I’m running version 5.5.3(Mac)

I didn’t know there was a 6 out.

It is not available for purchase yet, but rather in the Work-In-Progress WIP stage. If you have a license of Rhino 5 for Mac, you can access the RhinoWIP for V6.

Hello!

The issue is still an issue in the latest WIP

CloudApp

Hi - I see that here on my system as well.
Reported as RH-51963.
Thanks!

Has any progress been made with this. It’s a minor thing but I constantly forget the highlight on the new folder is not a proper highlight and I start typing only to call up the command line box!

It looks like this is difficult to reproduce systems in Seattle. I see it happening here, though. In the Rhino 6 WIP, please run SystemInfo and post the result here.

The bug item is open and is being further investigated by the developer and perhaps your system information can provide more clues.
Thanks!

Hi - I get a Not found error when I click on that link. Could you try once more?

I see, I didn’t know I couldn’t up a text file.
