P: LrC 15.2.1 Rename example shows virtual copy's metadata but renames with original's metadata
When Rename Photo is applied to a virtual copy, the Example line in the dialog uses the virtual copy’s metadata, but the actual rename uses the original’s metadata. They should both use either the virtual copy’s metadata or the original’s metadata.
(I think it’s more useful and less confusing for the actual rename to use the virtual copy’s metadata, but assuming the current behavior is “as designed” rather than “as coded”, then the Example line should be fixed to use the original’s metadata.)
To reproduce on LR 15.2.1 / Mac OS 26.2:
1. Download and open the attached tiny catalog. It contains the original x.jpg and a virtual copy of x.jpg. All the editable metadata fields of the original contain “j” (for JPEG) or the number 1, while those fields of the virtual copy contain “v” (for virtual copy) or the number 2.
2. Select the virtual copy and do Library > Rename Photo.
3. Edit the template to contain just the token Title. Observe that Example: says “v.jpg” (since the virtual copy’s Title contains “v”):

4. Click OK and observe that the file is renamed to “j.jpg” (since the original’s Title contains “j”).
5. Rename the file back to “x.jpg” and repeat for any of the other editable metadata fields, including capture time, Current Dimensions, Label, and Rating.
