lubuntu 19.10
pcmanfm-qt 0.14.1
when pcmanfm-qt is configured to use single-click mode...
1)when the pcmanfm window is given focus
Currently, when placing the focus on pcmanfm the item clicked would be activated.
I suggest the first click anywhere on pcmanfm when given focus should be ignored as a command to activate an item.
2)selecting an item
Currently, clicking anywhere on an entry would activate the entry. This condition causes a lot of inconvenience especially when you just want to click on an item to highlight it.
I suggest only the "name" column clicked should the item be activated. Anywhere else should be considered a selection request.
3)auto selection
Currently, auto selection is active always. This is very distracting and defeating when trying to rename a file and because the cursor has accidentally moved to another entry the renaming process is disrupted.
I suggest the following sequence for item selection...
user clicks on first item (not clicking on "name" column, as clicking on this column would activate item, except when ctl or shift key is depressed while clicking)
user ctl-click on any subsequent entries to highlight it and include into list of selected items
user shift-click to toggle all items between the last selected item and current item
user clicks on any other item will reset the selection and highlight only that item
suggestion#2: Is auto selection really necessary? It seems more inconvenient then useful |
