Description Rainer Wirtz 2004-03-13 03:27:21 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

When I save files using a download manager (kget) I sometimes get konqis filedialog, and sometimes kgets. More specific:
Save via "RMB->Save link as" or "RMB->Save picture as" opens konqueror's filedialog.
Save via drag to kget drop-target or via left-click->Save as (in Save as|Open|Cancel dialog) opens kget's filedialog.
It would be better when a download manager is used, to always have the manager's file-dialog. This way, kget's settings for default-folders etc. are always honored.

Reassigning to the kget people, they're responsible for the konqueror integration.

Two more sequela of this bug:

1. Groups are not honored when the download is initiated via Konqueror's or Rekonq's save dialog. For example, a file that will be listed under the group Foo if initiated from KGet's dialog will instead be listed under the group My Downloads when initiated from Konqueror's dialog.

2. Queueing behavior is inconsistent. A file added form Konqueror's dialog jumps to the top of the queue, causing ongoing downloads to be paused. A file added from KGet's dialog is appended to the end of the queue, downloading only after ongoing and already-queued downloads have finished.
