Description _ tboudreau 2003-05-20 12:00:20 UTC 
A number of people have complained about clicking
on explorer 
automatically going into rename-mode simply
because it was single-
clicked.

I'm attaching a patch to cure this behavior - if
the mouse moves
out of the selection rectangle, the timer that
installs the 
inline editor will be aborted.  

The new behavior is be consistent with Windows
Explorer and other
UIs that use click-and-hover to indicate a desire
to rename 
something.

IMO it should go to explorer.
Comment 3 Jiri Rechtacek 2003-05-24 13:58:25 UTC 
Tim, thanks for patch. I'm going to review it and optionally integrate
to code line.

Tim's patch was applied in TreeViewCellEditor, rev.1.35. thanks

Adding SIMPLEFIX keyword - the fix is pretty trivial, and
it makes a long-needed improvement in the inline editor.
