Bug in x2

Morning Star · Post by **Morning Star** » 2003 Jul 01, 01:23

Hey Nikos,

If a file is selected in a pane, then double-clicked on, it will be launched/opened, but x2 will also open up an edit window on the filename (thinking that the user also wanted to rename the file)... which is of course not the case for a double click...

that depends on how quickly you d-click
also if the launched window comes up quickly or not
a small "feature" this

Ahh. I see that if I d-click very quickly, the edit box on the filename opens, and then closes itself.

Would it be possible to wait a little longer before deciding that a rename was requested?

its not up to me really, that's how windows work
to ensure that no rename is launched you may click on the icon instead

How about (optionally) just turning off that click to rename feature? Personally, I find that it just gets in the way, especially seeing as you can just hit F2...

that can be arranged but it is bound to confuse most users

Well, it could just be hidden in a registry setting...

on second thought this may not be easy or even possible
but i put it in the tasklist so it will be looked at
