How to change the name of a folder in the subject hierarchy

Support
1

I want to change the name of a folder in the Subject hierarchy in the ‘Data’ module.

I tried using SetItemName() like this:
subject_hierarchy_node.SetItemName(296, 'new_name')
but this only changed the name in the ‘Subject hierarchy item information’ and not in the folder name in the hierarchy tree.

Here you can see that I wanted to change the name of the ‘NewFolder’ folder to ‘new_name’ but the name ‘NewFolder’ did not change:

I just checked and this call works for me in Slicer 5.1 on Windows. I call shNode.SetItemName(18, 'NewName') and NewName appears in the tree.

Can someone else using MacOS try it?

This should work well. Could your provide the complete list of steps that reproduces the issue? (start Slicer, go to Data module, right-click on…)

I tried it again today and it worked - maybe I have made a mistake before that I didn’t realise. Thanks for your responses!
