PS. Please see also bug 45843, which further increases the difficulty of easily selecting and e.g. renaming a file, thus aggravating the problem - there's currently a scarcity of practical ways to select a file in KDE's single-click-to-execute environment. Luckily, the situation should be remediable.
I am aware of the Ctrl-LeftClick option, but do not consider it terribly practical compared to what could be achieved by either the "automatically select icons" or "context menu not disactivating keyboard shortcuts". -- "Automatically select icons" mouse configure option overly eager https://launchpad.net/bugs/45872 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
