[gnome-love] nautilus paste file copy oddity

[Richard Henwood <rjhenwood yahoo co uk>]

Hi All,

I have an experience something particularly frustrating, that I believe must have a simple solution:

I'm browsing a large directory in 'view items as a list' mode. I want to make a copy of a file in that directory, with the new copy in the same directory, using my mouse.

I right click on the file I want to copy, select copy, and then I need to look for an empty void to right click again and select paste - but I can't find one... Empty voids are easy to find on 'grid view'.

So, I end up getting frustrated, using Ctrl-c, Ctrl-v and getting on with life. Except this time, when I'm asking for help to explain this :)

thoughts?

cheers,

Richard
