[Shotwell] New shotwell user: Gnome accessibility

[Adam Dingle]

Dotan,

There are two ways to open photos in Shotwell without double clicking today:

1. Simply press the Enter key.  This will open a photo, just like 
pressing Enter opens a file in Nautilus.

2. As suggested in the Bugzilla thread you linked to, if you go to 
System->Preferences->Assistive Technologies->Mouse Accessibility, you 
can configure GNOME so that holding down the mouse button will trigger a 
double click after a user-configurable delay.

I'm hopeful that one or the other of these techniques will work for you.
