Don't remember  single click option to open items on desktop after reboot Xfce.
Option marked as enable,but it don't work(need double click).
If disable and then enable option single click is work,but untill reboot xfce.

Proposed patch/workaround

Yup, I can reproduce here too. Not sure what happens, maybe the property isn't bound correctly? When I move it a bit later, and to reuse the global xfconf channel instead of creating a new one (cf. patch), then the option is correctly remembered...

Apply single click option on startup

This patch accomplishes the same goal but uses xfconf_get and changes the
settings app to use xfconf_get as well which should cut down on dbus traffic
and memory usage.
Comment 3 Nick Schermer editbugs 2012-04-04 11:28:06 CEST
xfconf_get only works in the same process (in this case, it is a bit more inefficient since a hashtable is allocated to keep track of the _get channels). But anyway, patch looks ok.

Dropped the changes to the settings app, thanks for the heads up on it.
Pushed the patch to master: http://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/commit/?id=127ff8a2ed9531b510e5e1bbff64690691e6ccc3
