<ul></ul><p>I see that the first option on a right click menu for a layer is "Zoom to layer".</p>
<p>This issue is possibly related therefore to the general limitations that I have noticed working in Linux with things that get clicked accidentally much more often than in Windows. There seems to be some inherent limitation on the versions of Linux I have used (mostly running xfce) with things that are too easy to click by mistake. But is this an operating system issue or an application issue.</p>
<p>The problem is the right click menu appears right where the mouse pointer is and because of this issue with it being so easy to accidentally click the first item on the menu, this zoom to layer is getting clicked without intending to a lot of the time.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #17348: Right clicking layer in canvas causes zoom out to 1,000,000https://issues.qgis.org/issues/17348?journal_id=839352017-10-28T16:04:34ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com

<p>I use QGIS daily on KDE, Mate and Unity on different machines and can't see this happen.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #17348: Right clicking layer in canvas causes zoom out to 1,000,000https://issues.qgis.org/issues/17348?journal_id=839442017-10-29T21:49:35ZPatrick Dunfordenzedrailmaps@gmail.com
<ul></ul><p>OK<br />my computer isn't doing it now, it was doing it yesterday when I was able to capture the video clip<br />so some weird bug in something that just pops up randomly.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #17348: Right clicking layer in canvas causes zoom out to 1,000,000https://issues.qgis.org/issues/17348?journal_id=853552017-12-17T09:31:53ZPatrick Dunfordenzedrailmaps@gmail.com
<ul><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>Closed</i> to <i>Reopened</i></li></ul><p>So this really is an issue. Qgis is the only software on my computer that I have this shortcut (or right click) menu problem with. It is actually not that hard to accidentally right click the first item in the menu which is zoom to layer as I have done it many, many times.</p>
<p>There are lots of possible solutions, like for example: remove the top menu item, or rearrange the menu items and make the first one an item that has a submenu</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #17348: Right clicking layer in canvas causes zoom out to 1,000,000https://issues.qgis.org/issues/17348?journal_id=1026792019-03-09T15:28:16ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com
