*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 420895 *** FWIW there is no reason to respect your choice to use double-click because there is nothing (other than opening) that you can do with a single-clicked-selected item. You can't cut, copy, or paste it, delete it, perform actions on it, etc. Being able to access these actions more easily is the reason why double-click exists. Since there are no such actions, double-click does not make sense for them. They are basically just buttons, not actual files or folders.

I know double click has no meaning in this case, but it's just to keep user experience the same in all Plasma apps by respecting single/double property set in Plasma setting. There are times when consistency is nonsensical, and in those cases, there is no need to be consistent. :) In Elisa we even provide a visual clue by using the pointing finger cursor to indicate that something will happen immediately if you click.

Oh yeah I didn't clearly see the pointing finger cursor, it's excellent solution to tell user single click is enabled. |
