Description Will LaShell 2001-09-10 00:45:03 UTC 
There are no emblems or icons to indicate a file or directory is a symlink. This
can be problematic because you can accidentally move a file around when you
should have been moving a link and visa versa.

I have no clue what the right UI, if any, is for indicating something in the
tree view is a symlink. Design help please!

Changing to "old" target milestone for all bugs laying around with no milestone set.
Comment 2 Andrew Sobala 2002-06-07 15:47:26 UTC 
Still applies to gnome 2, adding GNOME2 keyword.
Comment 3 Dave Bordoley [Not Reading Bug Mail] 2002-06-09 05:30:55 UTC 
Shouldn't this bug be even more general, since there are not emblems
at all displayed in the tree view.
Comment 4 Luis Villa 2002-06-09 18:18:30 UTC 
There is a bug for emblems in tree view already. Don't know if this is
really a dup of that or not, though.
