Allow activating an item after single click on a different item (1002 bytes, patch)

Description Kristian Rietveld 2007-10-08 09:03:28 UTC 
The double click handling in GtkIconView needs improvement as suggested in:

  http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2007-October/msg00041.html

Especially the case where you select item "A" and then quickly double click on item "B" you expect an item-activated signal to the emitted for item "B", which does not happen currently.

GtkTreeView used to have the same issues, see bug #120187 and revision 8623 in SVN.

Allow activating an item after single click on a different item

We were ignoring double click events when a different item was
previously selected.

Bug still present in GTK 3.10.8
Has the patch been integrated in a more recent release?
