... And to this day, the click-to-rename functionality *still* annoys me in Windows. I'm very happy that Nautilus doesn't have this feature. Clearly there are plenty of people who feel the same (or at least don't care for the click-to-rename feature), since after 10 years or more, Nautilus still doesn't support it.
On touch interfaces, I'd expect using a long-press to access some sort of file operations menu (including rename, copy, move, open, properties, etc) would be the way to go. Everywhere else we have keyboards, F-keys, and mice, do we not? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/48671 Title: Cannot rename by clicking on a file Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Invalid Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In Windows explorer, clicking a file and then clicking once more on the file name will enter "rename file" mode.
