Description Bernhard Beschow 2013-08-29 14:48:24 UTC

When opening N files with Marble in Dolphin, N Marble instances are created rather than one. Even with low N this could easily lead to out-of-memory situations, where the plug needs to be pulled to tame the computer again, which is very frustrating.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select N .gpx or .gpx files in Dolphin
2. Choose "Open with Marble" from the context menu
Actual Results:  
N Marble instances are created

Expected Results:  
N files should be loaded in one Marble instance

load multiple files in one instance

A freedesktop.org-compliant file manager would create 20 Marble instances if 20 files were selected for loading in Marble.
The new behavior is to create just one instance where the 20 files are loaded.
