I personally had given up using Nautilus in 12.04 after several times of painstakingly selecting a number of items, then right-clicking to choose "cut" or "copy," then losing the selection instead. I assumed it was a bug. I never would have discovered that you now have to click on the visible characters of the name, and I don't think it's a good idea to implement such hidden behaviors for a number of reasons.
I personally have no need to access the folder context menu with a mouse in list view, but if that feature is in demand, is there a different way of accomplishing that without breaking the right-click for everyone else who uses "open," "cut," "copy," and "trash" all the time? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990965 Title: unexpected right click behavior in nautilus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/990965/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
