GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 770325
GtkFileChooserDialog::set_multiple (true) only has effect before changing folder
Last modified: 2016-09-12 07:23:05 UTC
Hi, after recently upgrading to: gtk 3.20.9-1 and gtkmm 2.24.4-2 on Arch Linux I noticed that set_multiple on GtkFileChooserDialog only has effect before I change a folder in the dialog. I open the dialog, I can select several files in the "Recent" list. If I change to home or any other location I can only select one file.
This is a bug in gtk+, probably in GtkFileChooserWidget or GtkTreeView. See bug 770130
Bug 770130 has been fixed, meaning that both GtkFileChooserDialog in gtk+ and Gtk::FileChooserDialog in gtkmm work as expected again. The GtkFileChooserDialog bug was actually a bug in GtkTreeView, which was an unexpected side-effect of a fix of bug 767468.
