Make strings consistent

[koppor]

There are two functionalities for renamign attached files.

In the entry editor

in "Quality" > "Cleanup entries"

The text of both menu entries should be the same. It needs to be changed to

Rename files to configured filename format pattern

Change "Filename format pattern:" to "Filename format pattern (from preferences)"

Also change "Rename only PDFs having a relative path" to "Rename files having a relative path only"

See #12565 for a step-by-step instruction for triggering rename of a single file in the entry editor.

Change "Filename format pattern:" to "Filename format pattern (from preferences)"
Also change "Rename only PDFs having a relative path" to "Rename files having a relative path only"

Consider:

• Rename files according to preset pattern: (from preferences)
  • Only rename files that have a relative path

Just to make I am understand correctly, do you mean
Change "Filename format pattern:" to "Rename files according to preset pattern: (from preferences)" Also Change "Rename only PDFs having a relative path" to "Only rename files that have a relative path" ? @ryan-carpenter

There are several more inconsistencies to fix in this view, such as the naming and formatting of field references.

"The action RENAME_FILE_TO_PATTERN exists in StandardActions.java, but I couldn’t find where it is actually implemented. This may indicate that the renaming functionality is missing or incomplete. Should we add the logic to handle renaming files based on a defined pattern?"

[Siedlerchr]

RENAME_FILE_TO_PATTERN is for the context menu (Tip: use intellijs find usages to find the source)
For thi sissue one needs to look into the CleanupWorker to see the actions
