General :: Mouse Single-click Equals Double-click - Can't Select The Entire URL By Clicking

Apr 13, 2011

when i click my mouse on something, it sometimes registers as two clicks. it doesn't happen all the time, but frequently enough to be annoying. for example, when i click a videos video to pause it, it often opens into fullscreen (which you normally click twice to do). also, in the url bar of chromium, i can't select the entire url by clicking. i now need to use ctrl+a. that's also because when i try to select the url, the highlight randomly disappears.

if i have multiple windows open, my click on the first "x" of the top-most window also closes the next window. i'm on linux mint 10. it's not really important, but it drives me crazy sometimes when my mouse doesn't work the way i want it to.

Software :: Double Clicking On Open Office Files Leads To Very Slow Opening?

May 15, 2010

I upgraded from Kubuntu 9.10 to 10.04. It was a fresh install of kubuntu, although I did leave a windows partition on there elsewhere. Grub messed up but I fixed that with a small text edit. Anyway, when I click on a file, i.e. Open Office writer or Calc, the computer thinks about it for like 60 seconds and then finally Open Office (version 3.2.0)finishes opening the file. It also does this while saving some files. It did not do this this version 9.10 which really amazes me. I have deleted OOo and reinstalled it several times and nothing helps. All other file handling seems normal, and it is a fast newer computer with a lot of memory.

Ubuntu :: Single Mouse Click Registering As Double Click?

Mar 13, 2010

About a week ago I installed some updates. What they were I don't remember. After I did that my mouse started acting up. Now about half the time when I single click it registers as a double click. Also when I click and drag to select text anywhere it'll randomly do another click screwing up that process.

So far I think the problem is when I press the left mouse button it registers the left click and then when I release, it randomly registers another left click.

The mouse itself works fine if I take it to another PC that's using windows.

OS: Ubuntu 9.10 64bit
Mouse: Microsoft Intellimouse 3.0

Ubuntu :: Changing The Double Click To A Single Click In 10.04

Aug 9, 2010

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS has no immediately apparent way that I can see for changing the mouse behavior from the default double-click to single-click. There appears to be some type of kludgy, but unsatisfactory fix for this unwanted behavior in the Accessibility-option, under Mouse-Preferences.

Hardware :: Single Mouse Click Acts As A Double Click

Aug 18, 2010

Code:
linux-uitj:/home/anisha # uname -a && cat /etc/*release
Linux linux-uitj 2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2009-10-26 15:49:03 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
openSUSE 11.2 (x86_64)
VERSION = 11.2

If I normally click the Trash icon either in Kmail or in Evolution more than one mail gets deleted in a sequential order! I have to press the click button extremely light to avoid this problem. I have confirmed this problem is not only with the Email clients but even with most other normal applications too. I have changed my mouse twice but the problem persists. Both were USB mice. Below I have provided log information :

Code:
linux-uitj:/home/anisha # dmesg | grep usb
[ 0.138267] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbfs

OpenSUSE :: Double Clicking Top Of Window To Enlarge ?

Jul 28, 2010

First thing I do is double click the top of the window to enlarge it and when I do that the window enlarges correctly, but it also lunches an app like the double click lags behind to click on an app after the window enlages, im using the 64bit version.

If u dnt knw wat I mean please try it out and tell me how I can fix this, just double click a sized window to make it fullscreen and tell me wat happens.

I also would like to knw if maybe its the fact that im using the 64bit version and that its glitchy.

Ubuntu :: Double Clicking Songs Not In Rhytmbox Library Wont Play?

Big issue for me with rhythmbox. If I attempt to open a song in one of my folders it wont automatically play them. It will first add the song to the library. Than I have to manually find it in rhytmbox or double click it again. Hasnt it been the normal behavior in EVERY other music application to play a song by double clicking it once? Is there a way to change this setting in Rhythmbox?

Ubuntu :: Double-click No Longer Selects All?

Jun 20, 2010

I have no idea how, when or why this has suddenly happened but when I double-click in an input box it no longer selects all as it did before. No particular app, this applies to everything with an input/address/search box.

I noticed it wasn't working a couple of days ago in firefox but didn't realise it affected everything til today so I cannot pinpoint exactly when it happened to connect it any particular update or app installed.

I did install gpointing a few days ago but decided I didn't need it and removed it. I don't think I changed any settings but I can't find any settings anywhere for it.

Debian :: No Double Click And Run Option

Jul 15, 2011

I have a custom LXDE installation with mostly the core applications. (Read my signature for a better picture.) Because it is custom I do not have the option to double click and run a Linux (not Windows) executable file. When I try to open the application it says choose an application to open it with. Do I have to install an application like gdebi (except for Linux executable) to be able to just double click and run it?

OpenSUSE :: Double Click & Rename The File?

Apr 27, 2010

I'm using 11.2 GNOME for a while now..

As far as I know, GNOME can't act like MS or OSX when we wan't to rename a file..you know, when you slightly re click the file name and its ready to be renamed.. instead, I should go right click - context menu - rename to do that.

Is there any setting or apps for these?

Ubuntu :: Double-click Menu Button To Close Window?

Apr 22, 2011

I've been using this feature since Win3.1 days. Double-click the menu button on the top-left of the window to close it.It doesn't work for me right now in KDE, and I can't find any option to enable it. Googling gave a few hits of people requesting this feature in gnome, but no clear instructions on how to enable it in KDE or whether it's possible. (Though perhaps my Google-fu is just weak...)

Fedora :: Intermittent - Clicking Doesn't Get A Response On The First Click

Apr 20, 2011

For most actions on my system now it seems that clicking doesn't get a response on the first click. It can take 2 - 4 clicks at times for the system to react. Although I work primarily in my browser (Google Chrome), it does happen outside as well. I am running Gnome as the window manager.

Debian Configuration :: Accidental Double-click Prevention ?

Apr 17, 2011

There's a physical problem with my Microsoft mouse (and from what I've heard many other Microsoft and Logitech mice) where it accidentally double clicks during what is intended to be one click from me. I was thinking that surely some software that ignores the next click input from the mouse if it is within say 50ms (At a guess) as the last click would solve this problem and increase the longevity of these mice. Is there an option for this somewhere? Perhaps it would be easy to program a simple script or something for this?
