Version: (using KDE 4.0.83) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux By default dolphin in KDE 4.1 has a nice feature to select individual files in the folder clicking in a "+" that appears on the left corner. This feature isn't available when your mouse mode is switched to the "double click mode". I see those details interesting for the usability of KDE 4, independently of what mouse mode was selected in system preferences.
I'm confused: this feature is not needed in the double click mode as clicking on the item anyhow selects/deselects the item. Am I missing something?
double click mode works exactly like in windows If you click a file/folder is selected only the file/folder you clicked. To click multiple files/folders that aren't on the same row/column you must click Ctrl+ left click on every file/folder you want select. I liked the idea of the "+" icon to not use the Ctrl key to select those files but is only available on 1 click mode (the default mouse mode of KDE4).
Ah, thanks for the explanation. OK, I'll fix this :-)
Thanks to you for reply very quickly :)
SVN commit 825325 by ppenz: Also allow to use the selection toggle when double click is used. This allows to select/deselect files without CTRL key.
