Description Fernando M. Muniz 2025-01-15 12:16:16 UTC

1. Have the File Picker showing a place where there is at least one folder and a bunch of files.
2. Press Ctrl+A to select everything.
3. De-select the folder so only the files are selected.
4. Press Enter key on your keyboard.

Result:
Instead of submitting the files, it enters the de-selected folder.

Can reproduce in the file picker.

Comment 2 Fernando M. Muniz 2025-05-28 16:05:26 UTC

Even if Ctrl+A is pressed without folders being present, the Enter button doesn't work.
However it does work if the files get selected by using rubberband selection.
I also noticed that Ctrl+A doesn't select without clicking on the File Picker's background first, which makes it not friendly to use with just the keyboard.
