Seeing that Thunar has a pretty big fanbase around here I thought we should make a Thread with Tips and Tricks for it.
I'll start with one I just found:
Thunar currently features basic support for so called "mouse gestures" in its
icon view. You can use these "mouse gestures" by holding down the middle
mouse button (usually the mouse wheel) while the mouse pointer is on the
background area of the icon view component (any area that is not covered by
an icon or a text). Now you can move the cursor into four directions to
perform certain actions, which are described below.
* Left - opens the previous visited folder
* Up - opens the parent folder
* Right - opens the next visited folder
* Down - reload the current folder
It works really well.
