[Bug 1108637] Re: backspace key no longer works in nautilus
Microsoft has attempted to do the same thing in the trial run of Nashville (it was the OS that was later turnt into Windows 98), they have removed "up" from the Explorer and kept only Forward and Back. This was a disaster (and anybody with any brain can understand why, if you went from a different directory there is no way to go up one level, since 'Back' takes you to a completely different point of the directory tree). So, the question becomes, if even Microsoft was intelligent enough to return this feature, why did *anybody* in the free software community decide that it was good to remove it. Even the idiots who removed buttons from the phone or made something too small to be useful as a computer and too large to be a mobile (Apple, Inc) wouldn't dream of doing something as stupid as this outside of some test audience. -- 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/1108637 Title: backspace key no longer works in nautilus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1108637/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Some information from the upstream bug: it turns out that it is configurable - the way to restore the backspace key functionality is to add: (gtk_accel_path "/ShellActions/Up" "BackSpace") to ~/.config/nautilus/accels. It's obviously a pain to have to do this manually for every Ubuntu installation, but at least it makes nautilus more user-friendly again.

[Bug 1108637] Re: backspace key no longer works in nautilus
Hmm. I also set my Firefox and chrome up to match their default configuration on all other OS's, ie so that backspace works as the back key (in FF it's just setting browser.backspace_action = 0, but in chrome you need a plugin). I just find it much more convenient than having to search for two keys to press. My guess is that upstream will say the same thing regarding the backspace key - that it doesn't mesh nicely with the way quick search is implemented when you go back - but IMO it's a real pity they've done it this way, as I find it much slower to use nautilus now, both in that that 'back' takes you into the previous quick search, which you then have to cancel to see the whole contents of the folder, and in that backspace doesn't do anything any more. (And in that you can't right- click off away from file name to get the 'New Folder' context menu, which was something they introduced in nautilus 3.4 as an improvement and have now taken away again.) Of course, a good solution would be to make all this configurable - but this doesn't match gnome's philosophy of reducing configuration and usability :) wherever possible. As a workaround, Dolphin supports backspace to go back and is generally a much better file manager than nautilus, both in usability and in number of features. (It's just a pity that kioclient isn't as capable as the gvfs tools for when you're trying to integrate scripts with a GUI file manager.) -- 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/1108637 Title: backspace key no longer works in nautilus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1108637/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1108637] Re: backspace key no longer works in nautilus
Firefox on Linux also uses Alt+← to go back instead of Backspace. It has the advantage of symmetry with Alt + → for Forward and prevents accidentally going Back a page when all you intended to do was delete the previous character in a form but your focus was on the wrong spot. With Nautilus 3.6's quick search I think it would be a bit more difficult to have Backspace do two different actions (which is itself non-intuitive). -- 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/1108637 Title: backspace key no longer works in nautilus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1108637/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
