Double CLICKs

Can I has dem?

Friday, June 11, 2010 by CuddlyColin | Discussion: ObjectDock

When I have something that's not my desktop focused, it takes 3 clicks to open something on my desktop (like a folder). I'm running Windows 7 64-bit. Anyone else have this problem?

Is it always 3? Or do you just mean several?

Are you using CursorFX?

Wireless mouse, laser, roller ball?

It's just an extra click to focus on the desktop. So yes, always 3, instead of 2.

I am only using object dock pro 1.9 and I'm using a logitech g500 laser mouse.

I take it your logitech g500 laser mouse.  is WIRED

 

I get that to every now and then but I have (Microsoft wireless laser mouse 5000) on win Se7en 64 bit and no it's not do to batteries dieing cause it will do it with new ones too... But it is not 3 clicks as I have mine set to single click why click twice to open some thing, so it will take 2 clicks at times oh and it NEVER did it/dose it on XP Pro... oh and it will do it on Object Dock , start menu, fire fox,  etc., etc  and some times it don't like to Highlight text that I want to copy the first time or two  around... ... not using Cursor FX as it for me don't like Win Se7en..  but do use it EVERY now and then hell I paid for it I want to use it....

 

as to why it's doing it no Clue, as the double clicking once in a while has not irritated me enough yet to GOOGLE it..  yet

Yes, I guess I should have been more clear. It is a wired mouse, so definitely not a battery problem and it ONLY affects my desktop icons, nothing else. I can freely click as I usually do on my task bar, on object dock, in any program, it just takes one extra click to focus the desktop for some reason.

Also, this IS a problem with using object dock, as I've quit object dock and the problem stops instantly.

I'm mostly just curios to see if anyone else has witnessed this specifically related to their desktop and running object dock. If not, maybe I am a freak and have some setting wrong somewhere.

I also have this problem lately. (Win7 Ult x64) I have to click on an icon in ObjectDock (version 2.10.0.811) twice to get it to open. It used to work fine with a single click, even if another application was in focus (so long as the Object Dock was visible). What has changed?
