GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 679334
GTK+ File chooser has a number of inconsistencies with Nautilus
Last modified: 2018-05-02 15:27:20 UTC
The file chooser has a number of inconsistencies with nautilus. We should aim to minimize or eliminate these.
Yup. Let's make this a tracker bug. I've added bug #650363 as a dependency; it is for sharing the shortcuts bar. We need a bug about sharing the pathbar. Do we need a GtkBreadcrumbs that is subclassed to GtkPathBar? Or is that premature abstraction? We could totally use a really good GtkFilenameEntry with completion/etc. The current GtkFileChooserEntry is becoming better, but is still not ideal. A GtkFileSystemTree would be nice, and would also let us implement SELECT_FOLDER properly.
This https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=568437 is another inconsistency (file sorting order should be shared between nautilus and gtkfilechooser)
A GtkBreadcrumbs class would be useful for me to show a document library navigation heirarchy (e.g. "All > Science Fiction > H G Wells"). It could also be useful in other applicaitions like rhythmbox and banshee for navigating genres, artists and albums. Especially if it supported a single button-like element with wedges ('>') style display.

A public version of GtkBreadcrumbs would be great, although one can kinda fake it by using GtkToggleButtons with the correct JunctionSides set (and managing the scrolling/data model oneself). e.g. https://gist.github.com/nzjrs/4658966
Can someone with bugzilla access add these two bugs to the list. They are both about the difference in sort behaviour for hidden files. Thanks. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587040 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636526
More for someone with bugzilla access to add. bug 141154 bug 141155 bug 488621 bug 520633
Hi, Timothy! I have added the related bug page URLs you have provided to the "See also" list. In addition, one of the bug URL you provided is also already listed with this bug page under "Depends on" section (Bug 636526) Thanks.
Um... That bug wasn't in the list I provided today those other two have already been added. The new ones should be added to the depends on list also. Who do I need to talk to about getting my bugzilla privileges upgraded?

Could you be specific, please? Which bugs do you want under "Depends on" section and what do you not want? Which bugs do you want to appear under "See also" section and what should not? > Who do I need to talk to about getting my bugzilla privileges upgraded? I have e-mailed about this as this is not the forum for that specific information. Thanks.
