Chris, I replicated these bugs, and so I have filed defect reports that we will work on for a future release. I will have to ask the development team to assess the difficulty in fixing these. The new bugs are:
For the comma in the filename issue: http://bugzilla.ecoinformatics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5142 For the rename that does not work: http://bugzilla.ecoinformatics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5144 I also found another related bug whereby trying to change and save actors results in an error and a malformed actor, which I reported here: http://bugzilla.ecoinformatics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5146 We'll work on fixing these as soon as possible.
