Confirmed. It is not a good behaviour. The line-edit should be cleaned. Confirmed. I am looking at the issue. I have reverted these commits locally: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=822150 http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=820289 I still can see the same behaviour (unless I have missed someting subtle). My proposal (in a case I am right) is to strip for the file name out of the startDir url when KAbstractFileWidget::Opening mode is used. Any news on this ? I can't recognize the described behaviour on current trunk: Qt: 4.5.0 + qt-copy-patches-936035 KDE: 4.2.68 (KDE 4.2.68 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090327)) kdelibs svn rev. 946159 / kdebase svn rev. 946160 on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.28.8 Thanks It seems to be fixed. I don't know why it hasn't been closed. I confirm it has been fixed :-) |
Version: (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: GCC 4.2.3 OS: Linux I've seen this in both kwrite and kate, both 4.1 beta 1 and current SVN. After debugging with kate, I have concluded that the bug is in KFileDialog. When selecting to open a file, kate calls KEncodingFileDialog::getOpenUrlsAndEncoding(), with the url of the currently viewed file initially selected ("startDir" argument). However, I've tried both using KFileDialog::getOpenUrls() and creating a KFileDialog manually. In all cases, I get the same result. The first time an open dialog is shown, the initial selection is as expected. The location editor contains the file name without quotes, and the whole name is selected, to that I can quickly type the name of another file, and press enter to open it. This is the same behavior as KDE3, and how it should be. Every time a new file dialog is shown, after the first, the initial selection is different. The location editor contains the file name like the first time, but now it's quoted, and there's no selection. The cursor is at the end of the content (outside the closing quote). Now I have to manually clear the editor before I can write the name of another file to open. This is very annoying.
