Expand a folder when clicking it's name, not just the expand arrow #45

Closed tombigel closed 13 years ago

I find it very annoying targeting this small arrow, while clicking a folder's name or icon has no function

jezdez commented 13 years ago

The foldername does have a function: alt+clicking renames it.

grantland commented 13 years ago

I'd love this, or even a double click function.

The current behavior is consistent with the rest of OS X (see the Xcode project navigator for a direct comparison).

tombigel commented 13 years ago

@jezdez & @lukeman : a folder name (or a group name in a tree) almost always has a double click behaviour: in Finder it "goes in" a folder in an Xcode project it expands the tree item in Mail.app it lets you rename folders in Eclipse it expands the tree item in Safari History tree it expands the tree item etc.

I think that not assigning at least a common double click behavior is non intuitive (and a waste of a good ui function in an already behavior packed environment).

Look, MissingDrawer doesn't exist to redefine how TextMate works, it just moves the drawer content to a Mail.app-like sidebar. Feel free to open a ticket upstream.

tombigel commented 13 years ago

Ok, thanks. I thought you were doing a TotalFinder style work on the drawer, taking control over missing functionality. I guess it's a much more complicated project to maintain.

jezdez commented 13 years ago

Nope, TotalTextMate is not going to happen at least from my point of view. Feel free to rip any of the code in case you want to do something like that though.
