[01-27-11 15:27]: I use the desktop folders and have a strange thing that i think i remember being brought up before , When you put the mouse cursor over an icon you get a plus sign + show up but the icon itself is very difficult to find the spot that is active to click on there was a fix if i remember right but cant find it
I don't know the significance of the "+" sign, but the "selection" area for "clicking" on the icon is quite large. It is not necessary to "click" on the "+" sign to activate actions for the icon.
The "+" is for selecting, not operning. For people who don't know that you can select multiple icons by holding CTRL the "+" is an intuitive feature to achieve that functionality. CTRL and "select multiple items" has absolutely no obvious link. Here the area clickable for opening is four times as big as the "+" even if folderview is set to use the smalles icon size. And the "+" has the same size the buttons in the windeco have or the close buttons in firefox's tabs, so their usability size-wise seems to be adequate.
