I'm using Nautils 2.14.1 on Dapper. And yes, that's the behavior I'm getting too: If I click or double-click a "half-shown" file, it gets fully shown. Only then can I launch it by double-clicking again.
I'm not sure if this behavior is a bug or a feature, but I at least find it rather annoying. -- double-click doesn't open half-shown items https://launchpad.net/bugs/52606 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
