GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 100562
Double clicking on name of selected filename should open not rename
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
steps to reproduce: 1) Activate an Item in the List View by single clicking on it. 2) Double click on the filename of the selected item. expected behaviour: Nautilus opens the file with the default method, doing the same as when double clicking anywhere else. observed behaviour: Nautilus opens a field for renaming the file as it will (and should) do when you single click. Note: As far as I understood bug 83552, that one is related to whether renaming should be as easy as it is and is different to this bug.
If you read the comments further down, the same discussion is mentioned so I'm going to mark this as a duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 83552 ***
