EDIT:
Ignore below.
I was just trying to rename into something that is not accepted: numbers.
Apparenly it isn't accepted.
So ignore this below. It is not a bug, just unwanted and has been so
----
I know C2 is abandoned by now.
But I installed Version 280 just days ago when I realized I was still on 279 and I downloaded a capx that demanded 280.
Since then I haven't been able to rename animation names.
I was confused, tried to reinstall construct 2, reboot etc.
Then I thought "hey I just installed 280 days ago could it be it?"
So I rolled back to 279 and now it works again.
Anyone else having this peculiar thing with 280?
I presume the difference between 279 and 280 is minimal. I can't find any updatelog.
Again, I am fully aware C2 is abandoned now.
I have my reasons not to go C3. (it is 2 reasons)
EDIT1:
OH no. Now I can't open my project due to saved in 280... DAMN. (maybe I can hack)
EDIT2:
Opened up caproj in hex editor and renamed the version name. It opens up.
HOWEVER, It looks like the file has been "corrupted" and still retains the bug with renaming even in 279.. Maybe it is some readonly flag somewhere.
I tried re-saving it in 279, didn't help.
I tried to make a new project in 279 and saved, and it still is able to rename.
so it is something in the file from 280 that is still retained.....
Now I want to cry...
