Comment #62 on issue 26140 by tedthompsonthefirst: Chrome Linux single click does not select all http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=26140
I'm a windows user and a linux user, and I HATE single-click that selects all in the omnibox. When Microsoft first started doing this with IE I hated it. When Chrome copied it, I hated it. I hate it on Linux even more because unlike Windows Linux's user interface hasn't totally gone inconsistent -- YET. Please let's not start. If Microsoft would have had smart people in the first place they would have invented tabbed browsing instead which makes this not an issue at all. You want a clean url omnibox with one click? EASY -- click on the '+' icon for a new tab. Why would Chrome need two different ways to do this especially when one of them breaks all sorts of things and makes users angry? Please keep the not-broken auto-selection behavior. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
