List,
When I use the file manager I end up with mutliple windows opening as I
search through a directory tree.
What is the setting to not have multiple instances of windows on the screen.
Hi :)
Open a file manager window, click Edit > Preferences.
Select the Behavior tab and mark the option "Always open in browser windows".
You can also Shift-Click to open folders: that will open a new folder
and close the current one.
I would really suggest that you play along with what nautilus is doing
for a while, so as to be able to experience the experience the ‘spatial’
idea tries to provide. *Then*, if you do not like it, go the «Always
open in browser windows»-way.
Just 1 cent,
