This discussion is profoundtly depressing. Who was responsible for this questionable UI choice in the first place? Was it done to be gratuitously (or "patently") different from Mac OS X, Windows, KDE, and every other desktop UI on the planet?
Speaking of planets, what planet do you people live on (or what HCI program did you attend) where you think that *requiring* people to hit an F-key or use the right mouse button (and a pop-up menu) to accomplish a trivial task is a good idea? Just because YOU are a computer expert who understands that hitting F2 or using a pop-up is really cool and efficient, doesn't mean that it's a good UI choice. Particularly when the entire driving philosophy of Ubuntu for the last versions has been to make the UI simpler. </rant> -- 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/48671 Title: Cannot rename by clicking on a file Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Invalid Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In Windows explorer, clicking a file and then clicking once more on the file name will enter "rename file" mode.
