Description Sebastien 2006-06-01 16:59:21 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

My KDE is configured in "Single-click" mode.
When I click an icon in KIconDialog, the icon is directly returned.

It should instead be selected only.
And returned if the user double-click.

This double-click behaviour I propose is the one also used in File/Open dialog.
A dialog should not be closed with a click by the user when he does not expect its action will close the dialog.

This change will make KDE more consistent.
Idem with the dialog to select a directory: a click on a folder do not exit the dialog...

I don't agree. If you configured it for single-click mode, then single-click select and activates.

The behaviour you describe sounds, therefore, correct.

Comment 2 Sebastien 2006-06-05 13:59:50 UTC

So, at least make the behaviour the same for KOpenDialog/KSaveDialog and 
KIconDialog.

Then, you should fix KOpenDialog.

But I remember a thread (was it on a mailing list or here... don't remember) 
where people were against changing KOpenDialog.

I agree that when I first used KDE, KOpenDialog was not obeing the KDE mouse 
config, so for consistency we should fix it.
