I created this thread yesterday (https://github.com/oliverschwendener/ueli/issues/399) and now that I see this thread, I think we refer to the same thing. Before I posted, I just searched for the word "mouse" and that's why I didn't find this. Sorry for duplicating requests.

I would also like this functionality! Thanks!

This is a killer feature for me. I am a heavy mouse user, so without ability to click on a search result this cool app is worthless to me.

@olivereisenhut would that be a click to highlight, double click to execute? Or a single click and open?

Hover: highlight Single click: execute Shift+Click or something similar: open location if possible

oliverschwendener avatar Mar 30 '21 09:03 oliverschwendener

PLEASE, Add support to click the result and also to open the file uvication, (Open Path), it is very necessary

First of all, thank you very much for such a great application, it looks more and more like Alfred, but for windows, It would be very useful if they could add options that Alfred or Wox has, such as being able to navigate between folders from there, that is, from the same results without leaving, and also the right click function: (copy, paste, cut, execute as an administrator, open location, open selected search with one click), as it is a bit ugly to have to use the arrow keys or arrow keys on the keyboard.

Thank you very much for listening, I appreciate your effort.

----------------------ESPAÑOL----------- Primero que todo, muchas gracias por tan genial aplicación, cada vez más se parece más a Alfred, pero para windows, sería muy útil que pudiesen agregar opciones que tiene Alfred o Wox, tal como poder navegar entre carpetas desde ahi mismo, es decir desde los mismos resultado sin salirse , y también la función de clic derecho: (copiar, pegar, cortar, ejecutar como administrador, abrir ubicación, abrir búsqueda seleccionada con un clic), pues es un poco feo tener que usar las teclas de dirección o flecas del teclado.

Muchas gracias por escuchar, les agradezco su esfuerzo. Captura de pantalla (5)

Please add support for mouse interaction, Open or run, with one click, Right click, open location, run as administrator, take ownership, copy, paste. Thanks

BTW @freedsny there's no need to add a Spanish translation to your comments / issues, English is more universal and if the owner/maintainer doesn't speak Spanish better than English it just adds noise

Any updates to the implementations of this feature? Did the dev ever confirm anything?

Don't think it is implemented yet, I just checked in the new version of ueli today.

@oliverschwendener do you have any ETA for ueli 9?

ForsakenHarmony avatar Sep 15 '21 12:09 ForsakenHarmony

Not really. As this is a project that I work on only in my free time (which is quite limited at the moment unfortunately 😅) I can't promise anything, sorry!

oliverschwendener avatar Sep 16 '21 05:09 oliverschwendener

Thank you for listening to me and answering, I hope and you can reconsider, very respectfully you hear itWell, having support for interaction with the mouse would give it a lot of functionality and I know that to all its fans of this aol they would like to

Gracias por escuchar

More than a year later, still waiting for this feature. Its really easier to click the mouse than to press enter to select a search result.

The mouse can be used to scroll through the results, but why not make it click the results as well? I don't know much about coding, but is it a difficult thing to program?

fourteen-1 avatar Sep 02 '22 13:09 fourteen-1

Pleeeasseee mouse support! This is the best searcher for Windows that I've used so far; but the lack of being able to click on a result is really bad. Thanks

TaylorJKing avatar Sep 10 '22 11:09 TaylorJKing

Support for mouse interaction has been added in v9. Check out the alpha releases if you're interested.

That's great! Thanks!

vivadavid avatar Feb 20 '24 08:02 vivadavid

Hi, again,

I've just tried version 9.0.0 alpha 5 and I thought the mouse still didn't work, but then I realized you need to double-click on the result you want to open. Would it be possible to open the result with just one click?

Thanks.

vivadavid avatar Feb 20 '24 09:02 vivadavid

I think a single click should select an item.

oliverschwendener avatar Feb 20 '24 10:02 oliverschwendener

When you point to a result, that's already selected: the colour changes anyway. I think it'd be faster to open the result with just one click.

vivadavid avatar Feb 20 '24 10:02 vivadavid

Hovering over the result doesn't select it, it just highlights it. I think the current behavior is the best option, I also checked other applications/UI libraries and most of them do it this way.

I could make it configurable though, so a user can choose what action they want on single click/double click.

oliverschwendener avatar Feb 21 '24 12:02 oliverschwendener

In PowerToys, for example, you single click to open a result. It would be truly appreciated if you could make it configurable.

vivadavid avatar Feb 21 '24 12:02 vivadavid

In Raycast on the other hand you select an item on single click and invoke the search result with double click ;)

oliverschwendener avatar Feb 21 '24 13:02 oliverschwendener

I'll add this settings later today and release another alpha version, feel free to test it.

I will: thanks!

Hi,

I've tried the latest alpha, and it works as expected. Thanks!
