Description Jean-François Fortin Tam 2006-04-23 14:17:27 UTC 
Please make f-spot use single-click if the system is set to do so. I have my mom's computer set with single click spatial nautilus (I know, I'm crazy!), and so, everything in the computer behaves with single click, except f-spot when you want to "open" an image into edit mode from the browser view. I see my "test case" repeatedly single clicking the pictures and waiting, expecting the image to load.

Seems like F-Spot is not following Gnome settings.
Comment 2 Bengt Thuree 2006-05-17 14:32:02 UTC 
But how would you select a picture, which you do with single click, if as soon as you click a photo you enter edit mode?

Why not single click the photo to select it, and then click the Edit button?
Comment 3 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2006-05-17 18:06:08 UTC 
Hmmm... well. Just like in nautilus I guess (that's one heck of a dilemma! :) but if the user is crazy enough to use single click like me I guess...)

That means that single click opens (edit) the picture, and if you want to select it, you draw the "patented IBM little selection rectangle thingy" around it, or you use shift+click, or control+click. Would that sound reasonable?

Related issue with bug #341106 - allow selecting multiple photos with Ctrl + Shift + click
Comment 5 Dean Sas 2007-07-22 20:56:05 UTC 
The setting you are speaking of though is a nautilus setting rather than a GNOME setting, so I'm not sure that f-spot should follow it.
Comment 6 André Klapper 2018-07-01 09:04:55 UTC 
f-spot is not under active development anymore, has not seen code changes for five years, and saw its last tarball release in the year 2010.
Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/f-spot/commits/master

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
