[–] RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml 27 points 3 years ago (4 children) How are you even supposed to select files and folders in single-click? The tiny little + box that's very easy to miss? permalink fedilink source hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] CloverSi@lemmy.comfysnug.space 15 points 3 years ago* That or holding ctrl. Or dragging and selecting with a box. permalink fedilink source parent [–] rufus@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 3 years ago* I usually drag a selection. It kind of rare that I want to select a single file and just select it and not go ahead and simultaneously open a context menu with the right mouse button. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Rhabuko@feddit.de 7 points 3 years ago* There is a + over the top left corner of the icon that you can click for selection without opening. Pretty easy to use if you get the hang of it. edit: Or you just click the right mouse button over the file you want to select. permalink fedilink source parent [–] GunnarGrop@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 years ago Even on windows I mostly do ctrl + left click. If I'm selecting files I'm most likely going to copy/cut/paste them, so I'm most likely going to have my other hand on the keyboard anyway permalink fedilink source parent
