Hey all -

We’ve got a couple of Nextcloud instances that we maintain, with OnlyOffice, and a high profile user has complained about the click behavior in it. Specifically, he’d like the web version to behave in a more Windows-like manner:

  1. Single-clicks registering as SELECTING files,
  2. Double-clicks registering as opening files in OnlyOffice for editing and/or viewing (depending on permissions), and…
  3. Right-clicks registering as the usual context menu, no change.

Is there any way to realize this kind of interface in Nextcloud + OnlyOffice?

Hello @Short-Stay

Do you mean change the behavior according to your description in file manager of Nextcloud, e.g. where you choose which file to open?

Correct, yes. The “Files” application on the web interface.

Document Server and connector app have no impact on the way file manager works. You should contact Nextcloud team with this suggestion.
