Add "open path with click on path colomn"

Post by byzod »

We have click to open on path text

But path text can vary in a large range, sometimes it cost way more attention to click on the correct place (imagine you missed a click and try to opens a file that cause a heavy application to start up, you machine is raoring like a bear...you might come back after 150 seconds, or 5 minutes, depends on your spec)

Safe zoom to click comparison:

I spend 30x times to paint this already

Everything 1.5 -> Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> path_hit_text_only=false

path_hit_text_only

(this was set to true in early alpha builds)



Everything 1.4:
Tools -> Options -> Results -> Open path with double click in path column.
