Description Stephen Kennedy 2004-05-21 10:54:31 UTC 
To reproduce:

Open a window in list view:
When no items are selected, Backspace behaves like Alt+Up (goto parent)
However when items are selected, Backspace no longer works (although Alt+Up does)

Expected behaviour:

Backspace works identically, regardless of selection status.

Proposed patch.

Should be applied to HEAD and gnome-2-6 branch.
Comment 3 Michael Henson 2004-10-05 01:00:34 UTC 
I just tested this against the cvs version of nautilus and regardless of whether
a file is selected or not, pressing backspace will open the parent window.
Comment 4 Christian Neumair 2004-10-06 17:49:31 UTC 
That's why I wrote this patch. Obviously, none of the nautilus devels has time
/is in the mood to review it.

regs,
 Chris

I'm sorry, I believe I misunderstood the problem. I'll take a closer look into
it and see what's up.

Proposed patch.

My initial patch removed the binding from the tree view container instead of
removing it from the tree view itself.
Comment 9 Martin Wehner 2005-02-27 19:48:26 UTC 
Committed on HEAD. Thanks & Sorry for the delay.
