Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

1) Description: Ubuntu 10.10
Release: 10.10

2) nautilus:
  Installed: 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) I expect only one copy of the file name to appear when renaming a file.
4) The "rename" file name text as well as the "list view" file name text appear overlapped.

===========

To reproduce:

1. Set Nautilus to 33% zoom-level in list view. This is the only zoom-level and view I've found that exhibits the issue.
2. Select a file/folder. Keep the mouse cursor within that file/folder's Name column and row. If the mouse is anywhere else, the issue is not immediately present. It's also possible to cause the problem by moving the mouse cursor _back_ into this zone after you've put the file/folder into "rename mode."
3. Press F2 to rename the file. Again, if you right-click the file and choose rename, the mouse cursor will not be in a location to cause the problem.
4. You should see the white "rename" file name text overlapped by the black "list view" file name text. (see screenshot)

Minor point, but another related way to make this issue appear (still requires list mode, 33% zoom as above) is:
1. Right click mouse on a file or folder.
2. Without moving mouse cursor, press the "R" key to select rename from the pop-up menu.

Also, for the record, I see this on systems with ATI, nVidia, and Intel graphics cards, suggesting that the graphics driver is not the issue.

I think this bug can be considered triaged. It's very easy to reproduce and has Importance set correctly.
