Description Luis Henrique Mello 2015-05-25 14:21:57 UTC 
When the folder has enough files to fill the entire screen, there isn't a way to make the menu that appears when you right click an empty space. This menu has some quickly useful commands.

A suggestion is to add the 'Paste', 'Properties' and 'Open Terminal' in the upper-right menu.

right click menu when nothing is selected

There is no way to access this menu on list view when there are a lot of files in a folder

one solution would be to add the remaining menu items such as 'Paste' 'Properties' and 'Open in Terminal' here
