Description Miro Hrončok 2016-11-28 15:52:30 UTC

Description of problem:
When there is an URL link in terminal, it was possible to click it with middle mouse button to open it in browser (last time I remember it worked for me is Fedora 23, but I've skipped Fedora 24). Now it no longer works and I need to Ctrl+Left click, middle mouse button pastes previously selected text.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xfce4-terminal-0.8.1-2.fc25.x86_64

How reproducible:
Allways

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open xfce4-terminal
2. enter: echo https://bugzilla.redhat.com/
3. select some safe text with mouse (such as *echo* from previous command)
4. hover over one of the URLs, it's underlined when hovered, mouse cursor changes
5. click on one of the URLs (when underlined) with middle mouse button

Actual results:
selected text (e.g. *echo*) is pasted in the terminal

Expected results:
URL is opened in default webbrowser

Comment 1 Kevin Fenzi 2016-11-28 17:21:55 UTC

This has changed. Middle click now pastes by default. However, there is a hidden option to change that behavior to open url:

MiscMiddleClickOpensUri

Edit you ~/.config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc file and add: 

MiscMiddleClickOpensUri=TRUE

to the configuration section.
