@RobertZenz You mean to open the action menu on right click? I'm a bit concerned about overwriting the right-click behavior on webapps, since this will change the default behavior of the users system. For this reason we don't have a right click on the files app as well. cc @nextcloud/designers

I share that concern. However, most "web apps" already do that, including the big ones from Google, so the "average" user is already used to it. Everybody else is either accepting it or blocking it in the configuration of their browsers.

I also like to use the right click menu, but since this would only be on the cards (and everywhere else you get the default), I'd consider this acceptable.

And alternatively, you could introduce a user setting for it.

If we do it, this is something we should do in the server overall. Opened an overview issue at https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/13164

And no, we will not introduce a setting for this which we have to implement, test and maintain. We either do it properly or not do it at all. :)
