I use Konqueror as a file manager, as I imagine most people do.
In the toolbar there is the view mode button, but if you click on it nothing happens. You have to click on the unbelievably small -- I've never hit it on the first try -- down triangle that pawns a menu of view modes: Icon view, multi-column view, list view, detailed list view, and so on. Right clicking on it, as with every other button in the toolbar, renders a toolbar menu. So all the button does is provide that tiny triangle.
Wouldn't it make more sense if the button itself produced the view mode list? It would certainlt be much easier to use.
I'm sure there was a reason for doing it as it is currently done, but that reason seems to have disappeared.
On my machine, the buttons with the little down arrow will activate if I click and hold them for about a second (which is irritating, because they're the only buttons that behave this way). The others are the Up (directory) and View Filter (in the Extras toolbar); there may be more on other toolbars I don't use).
