Description nyanpasu64 2019-12-16 04:45:32 UTC

SUMMARY
When I open "Configure Kate" and browse for "Directory for index files", I get a file browser instead of a folder browser.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open menu Settings/Configure Kate...
2. Under the tree, click Application/Projects.
3. Under the Project Index group box, under "Directory for index files", click the folder icon to the right of the text field.

OBSERVED RESULT
I get a file browser with an empty name and filter list. I cannot select a directory for index files.

EXPECTED RESULT
I get a folder browser which lets me pick a directory for index files.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Manjaro Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.64.0
Qt Version: 5.13.2

Cannot reproduce, it shows the directory selector here. Are you running a non-Plasma desktop?

Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2020-01-09 12:26:27 UTC

Sorry, I was in the wrong plugin. It is about the "Projects" plugin.

Comment 3 Justin Zobel 2020-10-30 02:05:07 UTC

I've just tried to reproduce this in kate from git master.

I went into configuration, projects, and enabled Enable indexing.

When attempting to browse for a directory I also get a file chooser.

Confirmed on KDE Neon User Edition.
