--- Comment #3 from Prof Yaffle <[email protected]> --- Belay that comment... "functionality as intended". Please see this commit: https://github.com/xfce-mirror/thunar/commit/bb9fe8ad3e2202be52fa5c987cb1a7744d20a0a6 And I quote... "When using the right mouse button, clicking on the first column of an item will always select it and pop up the context menu of the item. Clicking on another column of an unselected item will unselect all items and show the menu of the folder, while clicking on another column of a selected item will show the context menu for that item (or those items)." In other words: 1. If you right-click on the name of an item, you'll get the context menu. If you want to drag, you can't. 2. If you want to drag with default action (copy/move, depending on whether it's between or within partitions), left-click and drag. 3. If you want to drag with the action menu (copy/move/link), right-click not on the name field but on *any other column* of an item/selection. 4. Rubber-banding/"rectangle select" is the same. You can force it with ctrl, but it is otherwise disabled from the first column; instead, start the selection in *any other column*. Hopefully, Google will pick this up and help other people, as there are confused users out there and this really isn't clear from the documentation: https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/working-with-files-and-folders Search hints: Xubuntu Xenial 16.04 XFCE drag drop right click move files bulk move -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Xfce-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://mail.xfce.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce-bugs
