Version: CVS (using KDE KDE 3.1.2) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Hi, when i create a new project in actual gideon cvs, i choose project -> new project. then i enter the project name and a directory, where i want to put it. if this directory does not exist, the next button in that dialog is grayed out. iirc, in some older version there was the possibility to click on the three points right of the directory input field to enter a new dialog box to choose a directory name. earlier, it was possible to create a new directory in that dialog, but now the rmb menu does not exist any more. i would like it, if the next button in the main dialog would not be deactivated, when an invalid path is entered. the program should give a messagebox, when the user clicks next, which tells him, that the entered path does not exist, and ask him if it should create that path, or if it should cancel, and the user wants to change the path. thanks, Holger

But if you click "..." a standard KDE dialog appears in which you can choose a directory but not create a new foder. So its a bug in the getExistingDirectory-part. I already sent a bug report for that. > i would like it, if the next button in the main dialog would not be deactivated, when an invalid > path is entered. the program should give a messagebox, when the user clicks next, which tells > him, that the entered path does not exist, and ask him if it should create that path, or if it should > cancel, and the user wants to change the path. the Next-button is enabled on valid information only. *Hopefully* in future a new folder can be created in the "..." dialog. imho the current behaviour is very intuitive. I like it. Let this BR opened till the missing feature in the getExistingDirectory-dialog is added.
Now you can create a new directory when clicking the button right to the line edit. works for kde >= 3.0. *juhu* :)
