Most Windows users expect to be able to rename by clicking the file name. And since most computer users right now are Windows users, it would wise to cater to some of the things they are used to. Unless, of course, you have somewhere else to get users from...
Also, this features is NOT annoying. In fact, it's difficult to accidentally do. First you have to highlight the file, then you have to click the file name to change it. So it takes two clicks. Clicking the icon will not activate it. When I first switched to Ubuntu, it was annoying not to have this feature. I had to right-click on everything to rename it until I randomly read somewhere that you can press F2. This is something that should have been done long ago. -- Cannot rename by clicking on a file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/48671 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
