[Bug 811921] Re: Clicking on icons in Nautilus changes focus
Guess there's no way to withdraw a comment. This is an old bug present in perhaps every X toolkit and window manager. Fixing it requires fixing both of those and perhaps the applications, depending on how the toolkit is fixed. There is at present either not the knowledge or not the will to make the necessary changes, in part because keeping support for anything other than click-to-focus is tricky. I've seen that Bill Spitzak is working on making sure Wayland gets drag and drop right from the start, so maybe some future X-less Nautilus will work right on Wayland. From the look of it, Wayland was headed for freezing in the bad assumptions people have made on X before Bill showed up; at least X is only made to seem awful in this regard because people misuse it. GNOME's BTS doesn't allow for bugs that are due to multiple components and their interaction, so it's necessary to have multiple reports. Bugs there against against one component which is part of the problem have been marked as duplicates of other bugs which are part of the problem. This means there's no tracking of the issues particular to the components, and defeats the purpose of a bug tracking system. Launchpad does allow for bugs which affect multiple components, so this could be merged with bug #803872 . But that bug was already changed from affecting nautilus to affecting compiz. It affects both . . . and Gtk+. (It can't be fixed in Nautilus until Gtk+ is fixed, unless Nautilus does some really hacky stuff or changes toolkit.) But it's been over 8 years since I presented a solution. The aforementioned work in Wayland can replicate the solution because Wayland doesn't have X's political baggage. I'm tired of this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/811921 Title: Clicking on icons in Nautilus changes focus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/811921/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

launchpad let anyone do that, feel free to look for it and put the number in the duplicate field, we got like 15 duplicates filed on nautilus this week and I can either spend an hour looking for numbers for every of those or close them and spend the hour fixing a bug, I think at the end everybody benefit from extra bugs being fixed (the other option would be to let known duplicates open, but if we do that the tracker is becoming useless, it's already hard enough to figure what issue to work on for nautilus in a 900 bugs list) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/811921 Title: Clicking on icons in Nautilus changes focus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/811921/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This bug is not a duplicate of a similar bug in either compiz or metacity. This is a bug in Nautilus.
