Description Marek Matulka 2009-07-22 23:48:53 UTC
Version:           k3b-1.0.5-9.fc11.i586 (using KDE 4.2.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

Description of problem:

By default when users click on the folder icon in Gnome, folder gets
highlighted, but not opened. If users want to open folder, they have to double
click on it. That works for lists etc. When K3b (or probably any other
application) in Gnome, it has its own behaviour which is when users click on
the folder to select it, it gets opened.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

k3b-1.0.5-8.fc11.i586
ksb-libs-1.0.5-8.fc11.i586

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login to your Gnome session
2. Start K3b
3. Try to select a folder on the folders list using single click

Actual results:

folder gets opened

Expected results:

folder should be highlighted but not opened (with single click)

Additional info:

I guess the same bug exist in all KDE apps when run in Gnome.

I'd venture this is unlikely to get implemented as requested.  Expecting kde apps to query gnome preferences (and vice-versa) for anything, like click behavior here, is... unrealistic.  I could be pleasantly surprised, however.
