Yes I can.

>>If you change how the files are shown you'll be able to right click and paste the file. Take a look at my attachment and try and change to that view instead, and you'll see (even though I'm showing you that view with konqueror, it works with nautilus too).
OK. But this is another way of operation! I think that this is a trick like CTRL+V!

From my point of view there is a bug because with the mouse I cannot de-select a selected file.

I cannot have the right contextual menu because of the modality of file selection in nautilus.
If you compare the way of operation of nautilus with that one of windows explorer you will notice that explorer only select a file when you click on its name while in nautilus a whole line (name, dimension, etc.) is sensitive to selection.

I think that for the resolution of this bug there are two way:
1) as a result of a vertical scroll, always insert a blank line (where will be therefore possible to de-select the eventually selected file and enable the right contextual menu);
1) to limit the sensitive area for file selection to the column of the file-name.

Thanks.
