Great news that the bug will be corrected for installed programs and left click launch them directly.
A little remark : having preview by default for all other cases (online search...) is logical. For documents, even if behavior is also changed, it is coherent with global user experience as Dash will be used both for search on name, activity (Zeitgeist) and content (with Recoll lens for example). So preview is useful if we don't know where the file is stored, as we can open the right folder from Dash with this document selected in Nautilus, or send by mail, or just open the document. But for the folders, it seems incomplete : we only have folder icon and the "Open" button, so preveiw is not very useful. I suggest adding some options and buttons, like: - Properties: it would open Nautilus properties window with information on content, location, free space... Size and number of elements are already displayed in preview, perhaps location could be, too (also for documents). - Copy: to copy the folder which could be then pasted - Backup: save the folder in Ubuntu One or open Deja Dup for adding it to the configuration... Last, for documents, with images or pdf in the Dash preview we have a thumbnail of the photo or first page real content, will it ba also available in the future for text, LibreOffice, video files ? Sorry, this is not completely related to current bug, more perhaps for the hundred papercuts projects, but this discussion and modification of preview made me think to that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1189088 Title: Unity Dash, left mouse button starts preview instead of directly the application To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/1189088/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
