Once ExoIconView/ExoTreeView have the required properties to enable hover autoselection (bug #1509), Thunar should allow the user to customize these settings.
Created attachment 494 First try Simple patch, which adds the option to the "Behavior" Tab of the preferences dialog.
Committed with revision 20829. 2006-04-09 Benedikt Meurer <benny@xfce.org> * docs/README.thunarrc, thunar/thunar-preferences.c: Add new option "MiscSingleClickTimeout", which specifies the delay after which items are automatically selected in single-click mode. * thunar/thunar-preferences-dialog.c(thunar_preferences_dialog_init): Add "MiscSingleClickTimeout" setting to the preferences dialog. * thunar/thunar-standard-view.c(thunar_standard_view_constructor): Apply global single-click timeout setting to the view.
