When running any Java swing application (like intellij idea) on Ubuntu the double click speed is by default set to 200ms. If like me you find this anoying you can decrease the double click speed by taking the following steps
In your home directory create a file called .Xresources and add the following line
*multiClickTime: 400
Then from the commandline execute
xrdb ~/.Xresources
to make the changes take effect
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
This worked like a charm!!
thanks! Before this it appeared that double-clicks did not work at all in IntelliJ on Ubuntu. Now they work just fine.
Thanks a lot, it works! I was almost to the point of giving up with idea in ubuntu, due to this annoying problem.
Yah, me too! Via the fine folks at Jetbrains, this fix dialed down my hyperclicks to a sane, reasonable rate. Thanks.
Great. This worked for me too, was having trouble with PyCharm double clicks, having moved from Eclipse. Guess Eclipse was never impacted because it uses GTK underneath.
Thanks!
Thanks a lot.
Thanks! That worked like a charm in Ubuntu 11.04 as well. Glad to see some things never change. (Or maybe it would be good if they did and the double click speed would be set to something reasonable now!)
Thanks, man!
