Bug ID: 454438 Summary: No option to turn off the default full row selection Product: dolphin Version: 22.04.1 Platform: Neon Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: view-engine: details mode Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: ilikef...@waterisgone.com CC: kfm-de...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY *** No option to turn off the default full row selection in Details view mode *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Dolphin 2. Click anywhere, but not directly on a folder or file OBSERVED RESULT With the default Clicking files or folders set to open them, the folder on that row will be open and we'll move inside or the file will be open. This is really annoying as it leads to too many mistakes! Plus I can never switch family and friends to Linux with KDE Plasma if it comes with these kind of defaults with no options to turn them off. EXPECTED RESULT Don't do anything if I haven't clicked directly on that folder or file so it would be better if it weren't enabled by default. Another think that I expect is for such a feature to have an option in Dolphin's configuration window to enable it when we are ready for it or if we already have similar experience At the moment I have switched "Clicking files or folders" to just select them as that was annoying on its own, but now combined with this feature too makes every unusable as there's no place where I can click safely without something unexpectedly open It mitigates the problem, but still want this to be off by default or at least have an option to turn it off myself. Also an intermediate option for the selection to have the same width as the name column instead of spanning over all the columns would be nice.
