This has been requested before and seems reasonable enough, but now I can't find the bug report tracking it. :/ Were you aware that you can drag-and-drop files and folders into the main area of the file dialog to have it switch there? So you can actually drag-and-drop the folder icon in the editable URL navigator into the open/save dialog to switch there. Not exactly what you're asking for, but maybe that's good enough? What do you think? Nah, we should really find a way of doing this.

That's nice! > Not exactly what you're asking for, but > maybe that's good enough? What do you think? Now, that I know it, I'll use it when I am again in the situation. According to your last remark, I think there are indeed ways which are more discoverable. *** Bug 426033 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
Created attachment 123057 [details] Save As dialog ACTUAL: Sometimes, I am in the following situation 1. I have Dolphin window open to organize things. 2. I have Kate, LibreOffice or another program open and want to save the file into exactly the folder which is currently open in Dolphin. To to this, I currently copy the path out of Dolphin's location bar and paste it into the location bar of the Save As dialog. IDEA: It would be helpful if in the Save As dialog, all currently opened Dolphin window locations would be accessible directly, e.g. in the location drop-down menu, see attached screenshot. Alternatively, the locations could be present in the new Recent Folders section on the left panel.
