Add "Rename group" to group context menu and add keybinding for F2

[Siedlerchr]

Is your suggestion for improvement related to a problem? Please describe.

Many applications (e.g. IntelliJ or VS Code offer a "rename option"

Describe the solution you'd like

1. Add an option to rename the current group (Open the edit group window and directly select the group name text)
2. Add a keybinding (F2)
   Bonus/Optional (not sure if this is possible): Make it in place renaming like in VS Code

Hi all, I’ve been a bit busy lately, so I couldn’t keep up with this issue, but I’ve created a basic prototype to show what it might look like. Let me know if this is in line with what you envisioned. I took some inspiration from IntelliJ and read that it would be ideal if pressing F2 worked like in VS Code. If I can’t implement that exact function, I’ll set it up so that pressing F2 opens a rename group window.

Here’s the link to the Figma and a video of the prototype. The window will look similar to the Edit Group window, but it will only allow renaming the group, with an OK button and an info link like in Edit Group.

Prototype looks good to me

Hello. I wish you a good evening. I want to ask one thing, but rather explain how I should proceed, because I'm stuck on one part. I added the Rename Group option to the menu, I actually did the same thing as Edit Group, since I am inspired by Edit Group, and I also added my Dialog, which opens a window with Input in which we enter a new name, Cancel and OK button. And I just need to change the name of that group, as soon as I looked at the editGroup method in the GroupTreeViewModel class, the Dialog for the group actually opens there, and when changes are made, the inputs to this condition "newGroup.ifPresent(group -> { ", if I understand it well, of course. Only when I try the same for the renameGroup method, an error pops up, which I will also send as it looks like. I will also send the RenameGroupDialog as I created it. How would you advise me to change the name of that group when I enter input?

error:
renameGroupDialogView : RenameGroupView.txt

I also send GroupThreeViewModel where the condition is. Just importent part:

GroupTreeViw.txt

Hello. I have already solved the previous problem, but another small problem occurred. When I enter a new name for the group, the structure goes to waste. You don't know how I could solve this problem?

I am sending a sample of the problem, for a better idea: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/71c06fcf-c2dc-4141-b438-180534cdf663
