For me selecting a link using double click is faster than using the right-click context menu (overall don't like menus as I can't use them quickly). To me that's a regression (I can't select URLs as fast as I used to), but that doesn't mean that bringing back the old double-click behavior is the right fix.
Is it feasible that a single-click shortcut that could be used for this context-menu option? For me something like ctrl+click or shift+click on a URL instead of using the right-click menu would be acceptable (and probably preferrable to my original double-click + ctrl+shift+c workflow as it's fewer actions / faster). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1501250 Title: double clicking on a URL drops the protocol from the URL Status in Gnome Virtual Terminal Emulator: Confirmed Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to 15.10 beta from 15.04, when I double click on a URL, I lose most of the protocol, e.g. if I type 'http://www.ubuntu.com/' into a terminal and double click, what gets selected (and entered into the copy buffer) is '//www.ubuntu.com' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/vte/+bug/1501250/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
