Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.

We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures.

At a minimum, we need:

1. The specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem.
2. The behavior you expected.
3. The behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).

Please also ensure that you include the release and flavour of Ubuntu that you are using.

Thank you!

Dear Mr. Bacher. Below I will try to explain in more detail the error found
in Ubuntu version 24.04. I hope you can understand it. I have translated it
from Spanish to English using Google Translate. Regards.

Equipment used: OS: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS x86_64
Kernel: 6.8.0-31-generic
Packages: 2496 (dpkg), 16 (snap)
Shell: bash 5.2.21
Resolution: 1920x1080
DE: GNOME 46.0
WM: Mutter
WM Theme: Adwaita
Theme: Yaru-blue-dark [GTK2/3]
Icons: Yaru-blue-dark [GTK2/3]
Terminal: gnome-terminal
CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3200G (4) @ 3.600GH
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030
Memory: 2137MiB / 7878MiB

Initial situation and objective of the procedure. On my desktop I have a
folder called "test_bug_ubuntu" and I want to rename it to:
"first_test_bug_ubuntu"

Steps followed:

First step. I turn on my computer and go to the desktop where I have the
folder called test_bug_ubuntu

Second step. I place the mouse over the folder and press the right button.
The folder takes on a blue background and a context menu opens. I press the
left mouse button on the "rename..." option. A small editor opens where the
name of the folder appears on a blue background waiting for me to make the
changes.

The error: When I try to move through the letters with the keyboard using
the arrow keys, forward/backward, the editing suddenly ends and no changes
are made to the name of the folder.

Clarifications: If I use the mouse to position myself over the letter or
word that I want to modify or add, it does so correctly without any error.

The same error occurs when trying to rename any file on the desktop.

If the process is done with the Nautilus file browser (and not on the
desktop) the process is done correctly.

I hope I have correctly explained the error found. In previous versions of
Ubuntu this procedure was done correctly.
