Description Damien Covey 2002-05-28 00:07:49 UTC 
A branch should be able to be expanded by double clicking it.  Currently
the only way to expand a brach is to click on the arrow to the left of it.

This is a more general gtk treeview issue.....
Comment 2 Kristian Rietveld 2002-06-07 07:56:48 UTC 
We removed "double click expands/collapses a branch", because we were
overloading the double click. The double click caused two things to
happen:
1) activate the row (emit row_activated)
2) expand/collapse row if applicable

We decided overloading was bad and removed 2).

Leaving this bug opened for now, so Jonathan can have a look too.

I guess the only problem here is that some trees will want to
implement 'double-click opens this node's
preferences/contents/A.N.Other window' for non-child nodes as well as
child nodes, so we couldn't make it the one and only behaviour
available for trees.  It would probably make a good default though.

Ah.. I added my comments before reading Kristian's, I guess they kind
of make the same point from a different perspective :)

This is part of the generic mode API I want to write.
