Description milosz derezynski 2004-08-06 20:41:56 UTC 
GtkFileChooser with GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN in select-multiple mode allows
to select multiple directories which results in inability to use the default
widget (button) to enter a directory
Comment 1 Federico Mena Quintero 2004-08-10 22:00:02 UTC 
We should use gtk_tree_selection_set_select_function() with a callback that
tests for a folder already being selected.  In that case, return false.  This
should of course only be done in the appropriate combinations of the
GtkFileChooserAction and multiple selection mode.

Comment 4 Laurent Wan 2010-08-19 17:58:05 UTC 
this patch prevent the selection of a directory when there is already a directory selected in OPEN action and multiple select mode.

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are closing bugs that haven't seen activity in more than 5 years. If this issue is still imporant to you and
still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please consider creating a gitlab issue
for it.
