Double Click Minimizes/Maximizes app

I'm running Remote Administrator Viewer 3.4 from famatech, it's a remote control app somewhat like RDP that comes with windows. Before upgrading to the latest version of crossover double clicking within the window behaved normally. Now double clicking minimizes/maximizes the entire window, rather than doing something normal (like launching the application within the remote window).

I looked at the crossover preferences and nothing seems to control this behaviour. Can anybody help?

I was having the same issue since I upgraded to Yosemite. After spending a couple of hours researching this issue and found nothing on any support site, I noticed that I couldn't double-click on text to select on Mac programs and other places in the OS as well. I started experimenting with the speed of my double-clicking, when I started double-clicking really fast I noticed that the selection of text and programs in the finder started to work. This let me to think the double-click speed was set too high. This is where I found the setting to fix it:

Go to System Preferences/Accessibility/Mouse & Trackpad and set the Double-click speed to the middle and things should be back to normal, including Radmin.

If you have not changed your double-click speed, I do not see why an upgrade from CrossOver 13 to CrossOver 14 would cause a change in the way Remote Administrator Viewer 3.4 behaves. It sounds like the upgrade did cause a change in that behavior, so unless you also changed your double-click speed as the other poster suggests, it sounds like a bug in CrossOver.

I'm forwarding this to our ticket system to see whether there's something we can figure out about why this would have changed.
