Description Jan Rüegg 2011-11-26 12:49:33 UTC
When selecting items in nautilus, you can navigate them with the arrow keys of the keyboard.

However, when an item at the right is selected and you press the right arrow key, nothing happens.

Intuitively, nautilus should jump to the leftmost item of the next line. Thats handy for example for selecting multiple consecutive files (say images) with just pressing shift and the right key. Of course, the same thing holds for going to an item to the left and pressing left, when it should jump one line up to the rightmost item.

Just found out that this is discussed in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=526802

Is it possible, that the acessibility functions are somehow wrongly set? I don't use any accessibility functions, yet it's still not working for me...
