Double click does not select the current path by default

[a]

On the default linux terminal when you double click with your mouse on the displayed path on the left of the current directory it automatically select the path, while on terminator I could not find a way to change this annoying behaviour. In fact you have to select the path manually and it is a waste of time.
Example:
a@a:/data/anand/graphene$
by double clicking on the path, terminator selects this:
a:/data/anand/graphene$

while I would like to automatically select only the actual path

/data/anand/graphene

as the default terminal does.

How can this be changed? And would it be better to be the default?

I am using Mint 20.04

It is necessary to go to
Preferences->Profiles->General->Select-by-word characters
and remove :
