GtkFileChooser: Double click or single click?
Last modified: 2005-10-27 03:39:53 UTC
Please describe the problem: The shortcuts ("Home directory", "Desktop" etc.) on the left side of a GtkFileChooser dialog have to be double-clicked to be activated. However, when single-clicking one of them, they are already highlighted, which makes you think that they are actually selected. This behavior irritates the user. Steps to reproduce: 1. Launch a recent typical document-based Gnome application, such as eog, and select File->Open. 2. On the left, single-click e.g. on the word "Desktop". Actual results: The word "Desktop" is fully highlighted. You think you've selected it. Expected results: The single click should in my opinion really load the directory into the file list on the right. Does this happen every time? 'course. Other information:
