I searched outside the forum and it's extremely difficult to find anything that isn't using Lightroom Classic.
I searched inside the forum and found a bunch of old stuff from 2020...
I'm TRYING to do SOME things in Lightroom (for those times when I could use a basic image browser - Lightroom - instead of Lightroom Classic), and I have a couple dozen images I want to rename - just change the filename.
I figured instead of using Bridge, which is painfully slow these days, I'd hop into Lightroom (not Classic since the images are not in a LR catalog) and do the rename there. Unfortunately, I can't find the equivalent of the LR Classic Metadata where I can change the filename...
Since the whole point is to SEE the file as I'm changing the filename, making the changes in a file browser is poor, and not being able to change the filename in Lightroom makes that less useful than Bridge.
I presume I'm missing something obvious, but... I'll switch to Bridge to get this done this time, but how do I do a simple filename change in Lightroom?
You aren't missing anything,, unfortunately cannot rename in the Lightroom Cloud Ecosystem.

Unfortunately, in my experience with Adobe, I've seen far too many simple requests get ignored to believe there's much likelihood of them being responsive. The history of Lightroom is littered with the bones of ignored, dead, disregarded requests from users for the most trivial of issues.

It's hard to disagree. Some really popular requests get overlooked for years.
