Productivity and ease of use in Unity is very high for me compared to others UIs, and in my opinion a file shouldn't be renamed by clicking on it.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file
So roughly 90% of PC users can be ignored. And you wonder why Linux is unable to gain popularity. And you say it's freedom when you decide how others should think and act. You try to educate hardware manufacturers the exact same way, this one of the reasons they don't care about Linux support. And they are damn right, arrogant people in the Linux community do not deserve it, they can do it on their own, the freedom is there to do so. (MS showed the exact same arrogance with Win8 UI, the only difference is they realised they screwed up badly.) Just to add to your high reasoning. There aren't many people around who rename files for a living, so time doesn't really matter in this case, convenience does. Clicking again a second later is convenient, and then selecting the position where you want to edit is convenient also. When you have to rename a lot of files, you do a batch rename, not the F2 BS. Activating renaming by accident happens once in a blue moon, to exit it all you have to do is to do what you really wanted, inactivating the file item or reactivating will cancel the renaming in Windows Explorer.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file
No, it doesn't happen often at all that you accidentally click on a file twice and on the file name the second time (millions of people are used to it), it's just an excuse to justify your silly decision. Like I said, implementing it as an option wouldn't hurt anybody, especially with a default setting disabled, and wouldn't take much of an effort either.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file
I'm sorry for having an opinion, I didn't know it's prohibited here. Also, I understand since Linux is a very simple and clear-out design in general, it would hurt the concept to give users freedom at the expense of simplicity. Forgive me for bothering you, won't happen ever again.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file
@Seb: I'm sorry, actually it was me that revived this discussion with a rather flaming diatribe. Thank you for directing me to the original Nautilus bug - for some reason Google doesn't pick it up, and I really wanted to know what the process was that led to this decision. I find it surprising, because it violates what I think of as generally accepted human interface guidelines (don't require right clicks or keyboard shortcuts, direct manipulation, etc). For me this is a papercut, as I use Windows and Mac OS X regularly and am always surprised when I try to use Nautilus in the same way as I'd use the Finder or Explorer. Of course, on Linux, it's often much faster (though not very user-friendly) to just use the shell to manage files. I know there's some concern that people will rename files accidentally, but on Mac OS, click-to-rename only happens if you click on the filename, not on the icon. This seems like a pretty good compromise as it makes it clear that you're trying to operate on the file name and not the file itself. I've seen this user interface pattern elsewhere too...

Of course, on Mac OS, you can also hit return to rename a file: http://www.tuaw.com/2007/04/26/mac-101-a-simple-trick-to-rename-files/ In Nautilus and on Windows, this opens the file, which is pretty expensive and surprising if you do it by mistake...

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file
I also miss this feature, but I agree that the way Windows does it did not make sense: the single-click-wait mechanism is inconsistent. I prefer OSX method of click-and-hold, this also has some analogy with touch-and-hold, and feels more natural. The F2 shourtcut works fine (to rename a file/folder you need to touch the keyboard anyway), but a shortcut mechanism on the touchpad/mouse seems more convenient and easy to remember. -- 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: Confirmed 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.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file
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.

@David: thanks for your comment, some notes on the topic: - Who was responsible for this questionable UI choice in the first place? Was it done to be gratuitously why do you assume it was done (e.g that work was spent to have it the current way)? could it be rather than the issue is that nobody contributed the code to implement the behaviour you are asking for there? - where you think that...is a good idea? who stated the current way is a good one or even an idea? it looks rather like a missing feature - Ubuntu doesn't write nautilus, we just distribute it, if you want to reach the people making the software you should comment on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=439991 To go back to the bottom of the topic, the idea seems a good one and Ubuntu (and probably the people writing the software upstream) would probably review and apply a patch implementing it so if you know anyone interested to help there... -- 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.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file
... And to this day, the click-to-rename functionality *still* annoys me in Windows. I'm very happy that Nautilus doesn't have this feature. Clearly there are plenty of people who feel the same (or at least don't care for the click-to-rename feature), since after 10 years or more, Nautilus still doesn't support it. On touch interfaces, I'd expect using a long-press to access some sort of file operations menu (including rename, copy, move, open, properties, etc) would be the way to go.
