That's right, it doesn't; I'm afraid this is intentional for the list view mode because it behaves less like a file view and more like a menu, and those are always single-click. However you're right that renaming inline doesn't work in this case but it's a general issue affecting all of Folder View items when in single-click mode. It's for that reason that the "rename inline" checkbox to enable and disable the feature isn't shown here. I'll have to be honest, this is strange. So far I have been using Foldier View in List View on the panel as a quick way of accessing my Downloads folder, much like it is possible on Mac OS. So I move things out of the list view to another folder on Dolphin like this but it is frustrating how I have to use the select icon on the left before I do that. It would have been better to at least have the option to enable double click on the list view again. Thinking about it myself, there are competing design goals here: 1. These are files or folders so they should follow the "clicking on files or folders" setting 2. They're displayed in a pop-up menu so the list items should behave like a normal menu which is always single-click VDG folks, thoughts?

Adding to that, I switched away from List View to Icon View and see if I could adapt to that mode instead but it still does not follow the "Clicking on files or folders" setting. It still opens with single click But only on a panel. Though in that case, yeah, the whole "its actually a menu" logic starts to break down. Git commit b7c80c6419b4eb3ae4b1024acf88da13d92e6b29 by Nate Graham. Committed on 21/06/2024 at 16:45. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Revert "Folder View: with menu representation, always open with a single click" This reverts commit d5abf12d6661f2a8f8449d9abe88468114a73dca. The change to always open items in single-click when using list mode was added by me in https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/1467 with two +1s and no discussion. But in retrospect, I think it was not the right change; the list-view popup may look like a menu and kind of acts like a menu, but it's not a menu--it's a file view in list mode. We don't force single-click for other such views in Dolphin, file dialogs, Kate, or other place where there are file views.
