I've experienced the same behaviour. It is on a fresh install of 12.10. Potentially relevant packages installed include ccsm, advanced settings and the faience theme. The jumping of the columns seems to stop if the widths are changed but if the view is changed (Ctrl+1) and changed back (Ctrl+2) the strange behaviour starts again. It's mainly a problem when right clicking but still happens with the left click.
It seems a minor issue but is very noticeable and I most often use the list view with lots of files. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1078942 Title: Nautilus strange behavior on list view Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: If there are a lot of files in any folder in list view Nautilus behavior is very strange. I recoded a video, because it is hard to describe. FS is ext4 . It is very annoying and confusing. In 12.04 I don't have such problem. So it might be a regression. I have the latest updates.
