Description H.H. 2017-05-30 08:25:34 UTC

I am not sure, if dolphin is the right product to report against (perhaps kio/kdelibs)?

To reproduce:
1) Open a remote directory like sftp://... in dolphin.

2) Create a file with an extension, which has currently no link to a program (in my case it was a ".less" textfile.

3) In context menu for that file edit the properties, and create a new extension and link a command "kwrite %u" for it.

After that, kwrite is used, but the %u is ignored (it is opened via a temp file as if the command was "kwrite %f").

This is very uncomfortable, because changes are not uploaded immediatly. So I have to open files everytime with "open with.." and enter "kwrite %u".

Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2017-06-07 16:55:10 UTC

The KWrite .desktop file does not state which URL protocols the KWrite application supports. Could you check if adding this line helps?

X-KDE-Protocols=ftp,http,https,sftp,smb

Comment 2 H.H. 2017-06-07 17:27:44 UTC

It does not help.

I have some debug output for

a) open the file with my saved settings (using the default open action to open the less file always with kwrite)

Can you reproduce the error? I can reproduce it on 2 different systems (both opensuse)
