GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 686962
Backspace cannot be used for navigating to parent directory
Last modified: 2013-01-28 00:37:15 UTC
Very common expected behavior, not working any longer…
Found out that adding: (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/ShellActions/Up" "BackSpace") to ~/.config/nautilus/accels fixes this. This is a workaround for the desperate until this can get fixed. HTH, See: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692648 (one is a dupe I guess) James
To avoid confusion with just-type search, the keybinding is Alt-Up in 3.6. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 679822 ***
