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

Well just FYI, you could enable the Kubuntu backports to move to the latest version of KDE and it's software?

EDIT: Nm, looks like the version in the backports is from 2025
