I would like an option to switch off the drag and drop context menu. Coming from Windows initially the context menu seems user friendly but I'd prefer just to 'move' files when I drag and drop them without Dolpin prompting me as what to do each time. The default behaviour is very nice for new users but for more advanced users it's just an unnecessary step. If the drag and drop context menu is disabled, I think that dragging and dropping a file into a folder is an intuitive 'move' operation. Copy/pasting would be done via keyboard shortcuts and linking would be done by right clicking the file and using Create New -> Link to File or Folder. Thanks.
I agree with this as well, this one is so important to me. KDE Plasma is amazing, this is literally one of the only things I can find that I do not care for, makes it very difficult to use. I am aware that you can use modifier keys to avoid them but for such a standard action should not really have to use a keyboard modifier to simple drag and drop a file with left mouse button. To me personally this is a pretty big deal, hopefully this could finally be addressed. There was a post requesting this from a long time ago (over 10 years ago) it had over 120 votes for it but unfortunately was never able to be fixed and I think the post was deleted? Nothing wrong with having these context menus be the default for those who like them, but seems odd that KDE, a group known for endless customization / settings, does not have an option to be able to turn these off / allow users to choose how drag & drops perform. I have never seen any other file managers use this approach with LMB D&D so with something that is far away from a standard, again seems odd not to be able to have a setting for something like this. I have however seen in Windows as well as some FM in Linux the use of the RMB D&D for these context menus which I would prefer. RMB makes more sense because a single click brings up context menu so D&D with RMB to bring up these CM would fit in better here. I will also add something not mentioned. This request is under the "Dolphin" category but it is a global issue throughout Plasma and all KDE products. I read in that old request post that apparently these context menus are coming from a file/library that all KDE products use. I have noticed them in Plasma, Dolphin and Krusader, even shows up in the Dolphin Flatpak. I posted a more in depth post about how this could possibly be handled here if anyone is interested https://discuss.kde.org/t/plasma-dolphin-drag-drop-context-menus/1809 Thank You Hopefully this one will be considered
