Is your desktop also set to Folder, or is it set to Desktop? My actual Desktop is set to Desktop. I have four Folder Views on the Desktop, one of which is a folder view of the Desktop (helps keeps things sorted and organized better). Thanks. On current git master, I can't reproduce this. Copying or moving into a Folder View widget (showing the contents of ~/Desktop) on a Desktop containment is instantaneous. What location is the folder view widget set up to show? Is it perhaps a network location? Created attachment 181580 [details]
Screenshot of Desktop with Folder Views
I have four folder views on my Desktop. Their locations are Desktop, Home, and two subfolders of Home. I've attached a screenshot. Some additional information. If I run plasmashell -d --replace, I get the following output: ✗ plasmashell -d --replace kf.plasma.quick: Applet preload policy set to 1 org.kde.plasma.containmentlayoutmanager: Error: cannot change the containment to AppletsLayout org.kde.plasma.containmentlayoutmanager: Error: cannot change the containment to AppletsLayout org.kde.plasma.containmentlayoutmanager: Error: cannot change the containment to AppletsLayout org.kde.plasma.containmentlayoutmanager: Error: cannot change the containment to AppletsLayout file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.desktopcontainment/contents/ui/main.qml:178:25: QML FolderViewDropArea (parent or ancestor of QQuickLayoutAttached): Binding loop detected for property "minimumWidth": file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.desktopcontainment/contents/ui/main.qml:201:9 Toolbox not loading, toolbox package is either invalid or disabled. file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.kickoff/contents/ui/main.qml:310:13: QML Image: Cannot open: file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.kickoff/contents/ui/start-here-kde-plasma org.kde.applets.brightness: D-Bus action "KeyboardBrightnessControl" is not available at service "org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement" file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.kickoff/contents/ui/main.qml:310:13: QML Image: Cannot open: file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.kickoff/contents/ui/start-here-kde-plasma Some additional information: - Does not always happen the first time I move or copy a file into a Folder View Widget. Usually starts having issues after the 2nd copy/move operation. - Does not happen at all if I use keyboard cut/copy/paste shortcuts, only happens when file/folder is dragged and dropped with a mouse. (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > Is your desktop also set to Folder, or is it set to Desktop? This happens to me when I set my desktop to "folder view". I have this settings as it comes out of the box, am I supposed to set it to desktop instead of folder view? This bug is about when using a Desktop containment. If you can reproduce it with a Folder containment, it's very likely a different issue. Can you open a new bug report for that and then relate it to this one using the "See Also" field? Thanks!

I am going to make a bug report about it > On current git master, I can't reproduce this.
Same here, we don't see the hang in Beta 6.4 and newer. There, the Folder View widget seems to be affected by at least a graphical glitch, which I will report in separate different issue.
Closing this because it appears to be fixed. Should you still see this in 6.4, there may be a special constellation for you that is causing this, but I don't believe you will.
Just circling back to confirm that my system upgraded to KDE 6.4 today and the issue is indeed resolved. Thank you. Great! |
