I don't feel like commenting on the Bugzilla bug report, which states that . . . <blockquote>We will remove the floating bar after releasing 3.16, so probably this won't be need at all.</blockquote>
. . . but this could be fixed by increasing the vertical scrollable size of the window when the last row is selected. The vertical size already increases based on the length of file names in the last row, this would just be an extension of that. The comment on Bugzilla also does not say what they are replacing the floating bar with. Being able to see the size of a file, without having file size always enabled at default zoom level, using just a single click is useful and it shouldn't go away. Alt-enter is not a replacement because it takes longer, and not everyone has a fast computer. The lag it takes to open the properties window also seems to scale with the number of items in the folder. -- 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/797485 Title: Status Bar Covers File Name at Bottom Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: nautilus In Nautilus when you have an even number of files on the bottom row it becomes difficult to rename the last file as the status bar covers the text area. I realize this is likely a rare occurrence, and can be gotten around by adjusting the width of the window, but it is a minor bug. Possible solutions: Move status bar to the left side when working with files in that corner. Do not show status bar while renaming. Best IMHO: Give the file area a bottom margin of the height of the status bar.
