[Bug 520118] Re: thunar select freezes after using mouse to select folders ("detailed view" mode)

 

The simple answer is to use icon view or compact view to navigate to the
desired folder, then a simple Ctrl+2 will show you the detailed view.
Another very easy Ctrl+1 or Ctrl+3 puts you back in icon view or compact
view to navigate again. That adds four keystrokes, if I count both Ctrl
and the number you hit. That does not really make it a showstopper.

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: thunar
  
  In thunar, in "detailed view" mode, if you enter a subrepertory by using the mouse, once inside you cannot select files, or subfiles to go deeper in the repertories. Neither right- click nor left-click are available. However, if you entered using the keyboard everything works.
  Once the bug happens, there is no way to interact with the contents of the repertory through the window. You have to close the window to open a new one
  This bug will happen every time
