i want to be able to delete a file without having to select it first with LMB. this is because i can only select it with RMB when i click on the file name, whereas i am able to select the file with LMB even in the empty space after the filename.

this may not look like an issue in this example but i have a lot of files that are only 3 characters long plus file extension so most of the line is empty space. furthermore i don't understand why the behavior is different in the first place.

is there a setting for this?

edit: dolphin v25.12.3
edit2: apparently this is fixed in a newer version

Detail view is probably different from list view, you should check

    these are my view settings, not sure where to change to list view

    also found this: image
    so it is a special setting to open files anywhere... not looking good for RMB (but it explains why it is different from LMB)

    I guess they are thinking about the 'Compact' option
