TC4A: MRT preview doesn't work for long file names after manually typing placeholder

Post by *DrShark »

To reproduce:
1. Find some file which original name will appear in preview of Multi Rename Tool before greater-than sign but on next line after dash:
<original name>
-
>
<preview name>
2. Type manually some placeholder after [N], for example [[] to insert "[" before extension:
name preview after dash will be empty!
3. Close and restart MRT for the same file: it will reuse previous pattern and will show correct preview with name after -> which has "[" inserted before extension as expected.

Reproduced using TC4A 3.0 beta 14, Android 4.3.1 and Android 5.1.
On device with Android 4.3.1, 320x480 screen with x1.0 density and Scaled density and 15pt Droid Sans as a list font used in TC4A, it is reproduced with sample original/preview file name:
012345.mhtml
On device with Android 5.1, 720x1280 screen with x2.0 density and Scaled density and 15pt Droid Sans as a list font used in TC4A, it is reproduced with sample original/preview file name:
0123456789101214.mhtml

It sounds like an Android display error. I don't think that I can do anything about this, sorry.

That's bad... Since reloading MRT seems to make the preview correct, maybe adding "Reload MRT" button to Multi Rename Tool itself could be a partial solution?
