Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kdebase
KDE Control Center - Peripherals - Mouse has the following option: "Automatically select icons". It works in Konqueror, but not on Desktop. Scenario: With KDE's single-click-to-execute -behaviour, you would want to rename a file on the desktop. 1. Ok, select it, but how? - Left click - no go. - Right click - opens up a menu. (On which the hotkeys don't work when the menu is open. I'll file a separate bug on this one.) - Drag a square over the file - works, but is clumsy. - Search the mouse configuration in KDE - "There's got to be a better way in here ### somewhere!" - Find "Automatically select icons" and choose it. - Try if it works. So, this doesn't work on the desktop. Works in Konqueror, as stated. 2. When you have the file selected, press F2 to rename - what could be easier. Kubuntu Breezy, KDE 3.4.3. ** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed -- "Automatically select icons" does not work on KDE Desktop https://launchpad.net/bugs/45837 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
