Reading some of the latest post I got a brilliant idea how to solve this problem.
How about introducing a new panel to nautilus which shows some information about the selected file & allows for editing the file name. It could be a small panel under the left column or below the main view. A new panel wouldn't need a special setting, just a new CheckButton under the menu View. Even I could probably make something simple like this. Added a manipulated screenshot showing the extra panel. Original picture taken from nautilus web site. ** Attachment added: "Natilus with extra panel." http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28490246/example.png -- Cannot rename by clicking on a file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/48671 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
