Bug Report Renameing Sources with "space" doesn't working

[Wolfbane]

Cant rename sources to names that start with " " (space)


When I create any source, Im allowed to name the source more and less anything. For example when I create a source with 20 spaces and IMG BlackWolf.
Example name ===> " IMG - BlackWolf"
That works.

And lets say for orgonizing purposes I want all my Images to have 20 spaces, so I easy can scroll thrue the sources and see anything with 20 spaces are images, and lets say all window captures are 15 spaces.... and so on.
It is easier for the mind to sort thrue many sources fast to find what Im looking for.

But if I made an image with another name, and now I want all images to have 20 spaces, and I try and rename a source to something but with 20 spaces before that. The program does not recognize the 20 spaces in the same way it does when you created the layer.

And if you created a source with many space letters infron of a name, and you try and edit the name and just add something after the end of it, it will also remove all spaces that was in the name from the first place.

Ah, hm. So you purposely want spaces? It's currently set to get rid of spaces. I'll see if I can revert that behavior for certain things (like source names)

While not an unreasonable request, I feel like it's a hack. I think what you really want are better features for source organization, and you're using a quirk of the source naming system to sort of do the same thing.

Yes, a system where I can put sources into groups, hide some sources I never want to see.
like, all IMAGES; are in RED color, all Sound sources in GREEN colors.

Or best way is prob to have an XX amount of groups. And then be abel to actually do settings to thes elayers, with color settings. And other stuff, would prob be alot better.

But for not just enable so you will allow people to name sources with space if they want to. Would be a easier way for now.
