No context menu in list view with many files
This is basically the same as #894 (closed) , but for the context menu in general:
When you have too many files in a folder with list view, you cannot open the context menu. Therefore, "folder-only"-based entries are not shown. With default Nautilus that's "Properties" and "New Document", as far as I can see.
Nautilus 3.38.2-stable
