Public bug reported:
PROBLEM
Unlike when you click on a folder (and the mouse cursor changes to the
"loading" symbol), double-clicking on a PDF file or image to open it
does not provide any visual feedback. The user is left wondering if her
computer "got the message" at all, and may double-click multiple times,
until it finally loads.
This problem also affects the following file types:
1. Document files opened by LibreOffice (although the LibreOffice splash screen
indicates that the file is loading)
2. Text files opened in gedit
3. HTML files opened in the web browser
Further testing is recommended.
HOW TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a Nautilus window.
2. Double-click on a folder to open it. Note the visual feedback.
3. Double-click on a PDF document.
4. Double-click on a picture.
5. Repeat the process for the other file types indicated.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
Nautilus will not leave users hanging, and will indicate -- as it does
for double-clicking on folders -- that it's loading the thing that you
clicked on.
