GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 61089
file selector should scroll to default file
Last modified: 2003-08-12 12:43:18 UTC
When I do "save as", the file selector comes up with the "save" file name filled in by default, which is good. But the file list is always scrolled to the top. It should be scrolled such that the default file name is visible in the list.
Good idea. Note that it is probably a GTK+ enhancement and not a GIMP enhancement, but maybe it is possible to GIMP hack that makes this possible.
Changes at the request of Dave Neary on the developer mailing list. I am changing many of the bugzilla reports that have not specified a target milestone to Future milestone. Hope that is acceptable.
It would certainly be possible to create a GIMP hack for this, but it requires knowledge about the inner workings of the gtk file selector widget that isn't documented or visible via de api. More importantly, the gtk file selector will probably soon be replaced (GTK 2.4 afaik) anyhow and there seems to be already an enhancement request for this (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60274). Lots of reasons for not hacking this into the GIMP, so I'm closing this one.
