yesterday i started having a mouse problem in DOpus. my double clicks are interpreted as ALT-double click. this makes all folders open in new tabs, and files are opening with whatever alternate apps i have set up. when this happens i also lose the ability to right-click on files and on the browser pane background, though i can still right-click on toolbars and everything else.
restarting DOpus doesn't clear the problem, i need to restart my computer.
i have not found a trigger, so i cannot reliably reproduce the problem. it's not my mouse, as it happens with both a USB mouse and my touchpad as well. and it's not a stuck ALT key as i first suspected, as no other programs exhibit any strange behaviour.
it can't be a stuck ALT key though. if i hit ALT, the menu bar gets activated. if i click a button, it works fine (if ALT were stuck it would enter Customize mode). and all my ALT hotkeys work fine...
i've discovered that i can hit ENTER on a file/folder and it executes as expected. i can also right-click to drag and drop files/folders and i get the proper drop context menu, i just don't get regular context menus for files, folders, or the browser pane background.
well i'm back home and having a look around DOpus, and everything is working fine at the moment. the problem didn't start right away yesterday, it kicked in after DOpus was open for a while. i'll pay close attention to what i do, so if it happens again, i can get an idea of what's triggering it.
it happened again, and this time, i noticed it in Firefox too. i would click on the address bar, but the cursor wouldn't go there. so i killed my mouse button app, and everything worked again. i have no idea how it got corrupted since the configuration hadn't changed, but i re-installed it and it seems to be working fine again.
