Description Sabine Faure 2010-05-10 23:24:00 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

- Launch Kmail
- Click on 'New' button
- Go to Message menu/Insert File...
- Now go to Message menu/Insert File Recent

The file name is displayed as well as in brackets the file's url(example: file:////home/sabine/kde/project/kolab/testdata/text file?charset=UTF-8) whereas only the path should be displayed instead.

Trunk, Svn Rev 1125123

Seems to be a general problem with KRecentFilesAction.
I think KRecentFilesAction should have a 'pretty' mode, or at least hide the file:// prefix for local files, and probably also the charset parameter.

Hi,

kdelibs (version 4 and earlier) is no longer maintained since a few years.

KDE Frameworks 5 or 6 might already have implemented this wish.

If not, please re-open against the matching framework if feasible or against the application that shows the issue.

We then can still dispatch it to the right Bugzilla product or component.

Greetings
