GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 757852
Reveal in folder from search results doesn't select the file like it used to
Last modified: 2017-08-23 23:15:26 UTC
when I couldn't easily find a file in a folder but wanted to see in which context it is, I had this trick: 1. Search for the file (with ctrl+F) 2. Right-click the appropriate result in the list 3. Click "Show item's location" (or however it's called) Result: Nautilus exited search mode, put me in the right folder, and *selected the file* for me (scrolling to it if necessary). This used to work until Nautilus 3.20, and I would love to have that feature back.
