[Bug 912446] Re: Allow an independent context menu
** Description changed:
After yesterdays updates a right click, mostly on text files, doesn't display complete context menu. (video)
It displays always e.g. create new file, properties, dis- and enlarge.
It randomly doesn't display e.g. rename, cut and paste.
It doesn't display mostly on text files, rarely on .ogv or .png files.
+
+ Update:
+ The confusion came from a bug fix yesterday, please note Comment #2.
+ Due to usability issues changed the description to request an independent context menu.
+ If a file name is very short, for example 'fo' or '1' a user needs to have sufficient target skills in order to access the appropriate context menu via right click.
+
+ Expected:
+ Allow independent context menu and leave it up to user which action to select.
+ It's more confusing to miss context than to right click and have a comprehensive selection offered.
