<item><p>Press <key>F2</key> or right-click on the selection and pick
<gui>Rename</gui>. The <gui>Rename</gui> window opens with <gui>Rename
using a template</gui> selected.</p>
<note>

</note>
</item>
<item><p>Click <gui>+ Add</gui> to show the menu of available metadata,
like <gui>Album</gui> and <gui>Title</gui>. Select each item to place it
into the filename template in the order you want.</p>
<p>The preview list will show the current filenames on the left and the
resulting filenames on the right.</p></item>
<item><p>Click the <gui>Rename</gui> button to apply the pattern you have
created, and the files will be renamed.</p></item>
</steps>
<note style="tip">

undo the rename. To revert the action, immediately click the menu button in
the sidebar and select <gui>Undo Rename</gui>, or press
