I use xubuntu 10.10 on my desktop computer but run a couple of KDE4 applications, one in particular being digikam.
I want to get a single click to open images in digikam but no matter what I've tried it stays determinedly double click.
In particular I have tried putting:-
[KDE] SingleClick=true
into ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals, but to no avail.
Can anyone tell me how to get single click opening back into digikam (I'm sure it used to work once).

A single click from what application?

(This question asked because you say "xubuntu", which suggests that you're using the Thunar file manager, which you can configure as per the destructions at: http://thunar.xfce.org/documentation/C/preferences.html#preferences-behavior )

Yes, that gives single-click in Thunar (analagous with the same settings in Nautilus if you're using gnome/ubuntu) but no effect at all on a KDE application running in xubuntu.
As I said it did used to work but I suspect that the change from KDE3 to KDE4 stopped it somehow.

Er, digikam, as I said twice.
... single click to open images in digikam ...
... get single click opening back into digikam ...

Now googled and found your posts elsewhere that are slightly more explicit.
Fire up kcontrol, and configure under mouse properties.
Done.

There is no kcontrol any more, I think it went with KDE3. I have the KDE4 "System Settings" application installed but it doesn't have any mouse settings in it.
I have done most of the 'obvious' things! :-)
As I said elsewhere I have also put the following into ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals :-
[KDE] SingleClick=true
but nothing seems to have any effect.

'systemsettings' program. Input Devices section, mouse item. I suspect this will not be a KDE global option. KDE probably shouldn't mandate how a custom widget in digikam reacts to mouse events.

Trouble is my systemsettings doesn't have/show an Input Devices section, this is where I had got to when I asked the question here. Either the systemsettings in Ubuntu 10.10 doesn't have that section or for some reason it doesn't show up when you run systemsettings under a gnome[ish] desktop.
I have asked on the digikam mailing list but no one there seems to have a solution either.

This is ambiguous and may require further information. Do you mean that:
a) in some application (which you have not specified, possibly your file manager), you want to be able to single click icons representing image files and have those files open in digikam?; or that
b) in digikam itself there are icons representing images on which you would like to be able to single click?

Sorry if it was ambiguous - I want b) above.
