Dunno...
Topic #2: Using Amaya
A) Links I have to double-click a link to get it to open. I can cmd-single-click and open a link in another window, but otherwise must double-click. I've set three-button emulation in X11, but neither option-click nor cmd-click allow single-click execution of a link. Is this a bug? or a feature?
This is a feature. Because Amaya is an editor it would be really frustrating
not to be able to edit a link (because every time you tried to click
somewhere the page ran away...)
I had initially figured I could edit links by opt- or cmd-clicking. Setting the default preference to require double-clicking to browse makes sense, too, and probably makes more sense than my initial supposition. I checked the preferences again [Special --> Preferences --> Browsing], and sure enough! "Double click activates link" was selected.
(Note to self: RTFM.)
B) Window size Each window defaults to a size taller than my screen. I have to maximize the window so I can see the bottom, then drag the resize corner to adjust. I don't want to open Amaya every time I use X, so editing my .xinitrc file is out (unless I'm wrong, which is possible :). Suggestions?
I think there is a config option - I'll have a look now.
Continuing the "my, wasn't that obvious" theme: the Geometry preference [Special --> Preferences --> Window Geometry] has a "Save current geometry" option. I just restarted Amaya, and that fixed it.
In other words, the only non-trivial problem - the only problem not (yet) attributable to a Keyboard-Seat Connectivity Error - is the 'sudo amaya' vs 'amaya' start command.
Thanks-
