Description pterodactyle 2012-08-20 14:21:39 UTC

When I'm in a directory symlink (like ~/video/movies/) and want to move a file or a directory to ../documentaries/ through the "Move" function (F6), after I type in ../, subdirectories of the real location of said directory appear (subdirectories of /mnt/new/download/ in my case). Nevertheless, if I leave .. as target, it gets moved to ~/video/ (which is right).
Please fix the wrong auto-suggestions
Also, if I move to .. through drag-and-drop, it actually lands in real "upper dir" (/mnt/new/download/) instead of symlink's upper dir (~/video/)
Please fix that as well.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to directory symlink
2. Choose a file, Press F6 or F5
3. Type in ../, look for auto-suggestions
----
1. Go to directory symlink
2. Choose a file, drag-and-drop to .., Choose "Move" or "Copy"
Actual Results:  
I - Autosuggestions for real upper dir, moving to symlink's upper dir
---
II - Moving to real upper dir

Expected Results:  
I - Autosuggestions for and moving to symlink's upper dir
---
II - Moving to symlink's upper dir

Confirmed. Links are always resolved for file operations before resolving relative paths.
This order must be changed.
And additionally the auto-suggestion.

Comment 2 Alex Bikadorov 2016-10-27 15:54:31 UTC

I can manually change the url after it was entered so that relative paths are resolved before symbolic links.

But the url completion/suggestion is made internally in KF5 (KUrlCompletion). I asked for an API enhancement...
