Talk:Double-click

message: Why does it mention that in Fedora Linux renaming is not allowed by two clicks? I believe under Ubuntu the same thing is impmlemented (running OSX now, so can't check). I think it might be a Gnome thing as opposed to limited to just Fedora Core. Can someone else verify? --Daev 02:13, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:Screenshot-Gnome-mouse-properties.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Screenshot-Gnome-mouse-properties.png

message: The patent in question is US patent #6,727,830 which can be found at uspto.com. As I read the first claim, the patent does in fact concern double-click and some other functionality, but is restricted to computers with limited resources. I think that this claim does not diverge substantially from known technology (in July 12, 2002, when the patent was filed) which in my understanding means that the patent is not going to hold up in court (the article incorrectly states the year of filing as 2007). --Morten LJ 17:33, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Microsoft patent 

message: The example explaining the problems associated with having one action associated with double-click and another with successive single clicks seems to be inaccurate; particularly, the last line:
This implies that Windows behaves differently, while (in every version I've used) it behaves exactly the same as described in that quote. I've never used a Mac so I may be missing something. Could someone please clarify the difference (if there is one)?   71.98.94.127 19:09, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I've read that the double-click action is more than twice as damaging to your body because of the rapid motion. Can't remember the source at the moment, though. The ergonomic consequences are worth mentioning, as many people's workflows involve double-clicking extensively. 137.158.152.207 (talk) 00:00, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
