Description L Martinek 2000-11-28 15:34:11 UTC

Copy some file and Paste -> Create link. This link has property original name.
If you change this property it causes renaming of original file. I would expect
that this property is read-only. Or other expected behavior of changing this
property could be changing link to new file.

Not clear to me at least if there is really a bug, or if so which proposed
solution is better.

Comment 2 Lukas Hasik 2001-09-14 15:25:53 UTC

works for me in 200109130100
only link name is changed

Comment 3 L Martinek 2001-09-21 17:01:18 UTC

You are probably talking about "Name" property, but I mean "Original 
Name" property.

Comment 4 Jan Zajicek 2001-09-24 11:11:21 UTC

Moving to data systems.

Comment 5 phamernik 2001-10-25 14:39:45 UTC

The property "Original name" was designed for changing the original 
object's name. It works fine and people use it. It will not be fixed 
now.
