Unexpect directory selected when copying or moving images
Last modified: 2007-06-18 20:14:50 UTC
I select one or more images and want to move that to another directory: - right mouse click -> copy (or move) - the "choose the destination folder" dialog opens - hit the browse botton - click on the parent folder: for example: I was in [Home][Images][New]. I clicked on the [Images] botton on the top. I expect that if I click on the [Open] button on the bottom, the image is copied to [Images], while it remains in the same directory. Actually when I clicked on the [Images] button, the location bar presented me "New", i.e. the directory I were when I opened the dialog. So actually the user is informed (in the location bar) what is the directory to which the image is copied/moved. Notwidthstanding, I think that when the user press (I always use the same example) the [Images] button, the dialog should work that that directory, and not the former, is to be selected.
This is a GtkFileChooser problem (bug 376121?). I agree, it doesn't work well. - Mike *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 376121 ***
