i have to admit i’m finding it quite frustrating how many classic KDE ui things are being sacrificed for homogeneity recently - single click to open, mouse over program menu category to switch, now this
double click by default in particular was abandoning an iconic and way more intuitive way to interact with the desktop to be more like what windows and mac users are used to, which is a shame
edit: jumped the gun here, doesn’t look like it’s the new default. rest of my whining applies tho
I must say, the mouse-over-category thingie was a horrible default that still makes me cringe on my Debian system today, because it forces me to trace a VERY SPECIFIC route with my mouse so I don’t trigger another category, when 99% of the time all I want is to click on one of my favourites.
18 years after it was first requested,
Haha, amazing 😸
Two things: datahoarders don’t like move since if something goes wrong your file is gone, copy is the safer option. Second, in the video, the cursor still gets a green ±icon when moving which suggest copyijg for me so this feels wrong, what do others think?
why would you do that? it works fine
They’re turning kde into windows because the windows users are annoyed at having to use something different.
At least it can be reverted to normal. :-/
Well on Windows it does move if it is on the same disk and copy if it is on a different disk like from ab internal disk to an external drive. This can be changed by holding down keys during the drag and drop. Ctrl for copy and Alt for move. With all that said, I quite liked the option to choose what you want when drag and drop and I will change it back.
