Hey, I just tried this and it works great. Here's the macro that worked:

Hey Aren! That's cool stuff. Great to know there's a workaround but to have to pay for software to get this done? Don't get be wrong I'm all up for scripts, macros and automation. But as a Windows user the all powerful F2 key will enter rename mode on pretty much any file or folder. Really hoping Avid support it in a future release! Good stuff though! Thanks for showing us. Looks at keyboard Maestro for lots of other uses too so might just buy it myself.

Ah this wouldn't be feasible for me as I wouldn't be able to download it on the computers at university. Thought I'd hold out until MC2019 but looks like it still hasn't been addressed. What a shame...

Thanks anyway

Maybe it's because assistant editors don't have a lobby and are not high enough in the hirarchy. But they shouldn't forget, that assistant editors can become editors.

Lads... they've only gone and done it. I jumped for joy the other day when I realised.
