How can I rename a paired Fastq file?

I am following along with the Reference-based RNA-Seq tutorial, but I am having an issue where, when I go to rename the paired fastqs, it doesn’t work.
This is what I see:

Then I type in my new file name:

Then I press “enter” on my keyboard:

Is there a reason why the file name won’t change? When I hover my mouse over the pencil it says “not editable”:

Thank you!

Hello Caroline_R!

The identifier for the nested pair (pair inside of a list of pairs) should not be editable by default and this is a newly introduced bug where the click-to-edit is still activated. There should be a fix for this (to prevent editing the identifier) soon!

Thank you so much! I do have one followup question.

In this tutorial, it says that I can rename my pairs. Is this not possible anymore?

No problem!

That and similar tutorials which include instructions on creating collections will be adjusted since collection creation has seen many extensive and cool updates in the latest release, so please bear with us! :slight_smile:

For creating a paired collection, and being able to rename its elements, you need to:

a) Select those items
b) In the same dropdown as mentioned here, you now have a Advanced Build List option instead of the older Build List of Dataset Pairs
c) This will show, in the center panel, several options and you can select the appropriate collection type (List of Paired Datasets in this case)
d) Then when you get to the Builder step, you can double click on the appropriate cell in the List Identifier column (as shown below), and give those pairs names (called “identifiers” in Galaxy)

This is the only time you can therefore, rename pairs inside of a collection. Not after they’ve been created.

Thank you!
