GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 385896
Regression: Ctrl+F10 broken in list view
Last modified: 2016-10-18 10:45:37 UTC
Ctrl+F10 used to open the folder's context menu in list view (as opposed to the selection's context menu, which is Shift+F10). It doesn't seem to work any more in 2.17. This was implemented to be analagous to the use of Ctrl+F10 to open a panel's context menu, rather than the focused applet's menu (Shift-F10), to get around the problem that there's often no available background space in which to right-click.
Confirming with 2.21.5.
