Description Mikhail Morfikov 2018-04-18 18:10:32 UTC
Creating a new dir or file isn't a big deal for Krusader when it does this inside of directories, which contain many files -- at least one. The at last one file is needed to select it for the mouse context menu. When you don't have any files in a dir, the mouse context menu works (is limited in options), but there's no way to create a new dir or empty file using this menu (even though you have such options). Selecting Create New -> folder/empty file simply does nothing.

Step to reproduce this bug:

- create an empty directory (you can use a terminal)
- change directory to the newly created one using Krusader left or right panel
- try to create a dir or an empty file using the mouse context menu -- you should get no error and also no files will be created

Creating an empty file/dir from the "file" menu works well even inside of an empty dir. Also shortcuts works.

Even if you have some files in a dir, but you haven't selected any of them, you still won't be able to create a file or dir using the mouse context menu. Simply you have to select something in order to do it.
