Created attachment 37840 [details]
picture.png (while opening to attach)
Took a snapshot of a temporary directory currently holding several files. there are also 4 additional files in this temporary folder 001.jpg, 002.jpg, 003.jpg and 004.jpg.
Even though the files do not show in the open/save dialogue box (therefore you cannot use the mouse to attach the file), I was able to highlight them by typing a 0 in the Name box and therefore attaching them in that manner.
This is definitely a broken feature that needs fixing.
As I've suffered yesterday the same problem with kate from trunk, it is a kdelibs problem. My problem came after creating a x.patch file, enter the directory, create a filter for *patch, and the newly patch file was not shown, but fortunately I could enter the first characters and the filename was completed. Until this bug is fixed, we'll have to use the 'refresh' green button in that dialog when this happens. Sounds like the bug that is caused by the inotify kernel changes. So does this still happen with kde 4.3.5 or above? I'm running Mandriva 2010.0 which currently has KDE 4.3.2 and Kmail 1.12.2. I understand Mandriva 2010.1 is running Alpha tests of KDE 4.4, would the fixes be included in 4.4? If yes, I could try 2010.1, but I've got a few priorities that need to be done this week (if you're willing to wait). However, comment #2 and #3 are still accurate (for 2010.0 & KDE 4.3.2) in which you still got to use the refresh button to see all files. KDE 4.3 didn't work together with the inotify feature of modern kernels (including 2.6.31). That was fixed in KDE 4.3.5. Probably that fixed this bug too I tried this in Mandriva 2010.1 alpha 3 and this bug appears fixed in KDE 4.4. If you want to close this bug, go ahead, I consider this fixed now. Thanks. |
