Version: SVN (using Devel) OS: Linux Hi, when i finished downloading files with KGet , right click on "Open Destination" , dolphin opens and it took me time to search for file ( actually not much , but should be avoid ) , so if dolphin opens with *target file* selected , it would be good. Reproducible: Always
When I use "dolphin /path/to/dir" Dolphin correctly starts in that directory. When I use "dolphin /path/to/file.ext" Dolphin _opens_ the file, and says "Loading folder" without ever stopping or listing any files in the directory. As comment #0 says, it should load the containing directory, selecting the file, and scroll it into view. If you want to open it, just press enter or click on it. When Dolphin is fixed, KGet (or KTorrent) could start the file manager with the file's URL.

The right way to do it is dolphin --select /path/to/file.ext However, this only selects the file, but does not make it the current item. It doesn't scroll to the file either. But these things should be easy to fix. I think that "dolphin /path/to/file.ext" should not open the dir and select the file in every case - if "open archives as folder" is enabled in the settings, I would expect that the archive contents are displayed in the Dolphin window if I launch it with "dolphin /path/to/archive.tar.gz".
Resetting assignee to default as per bug #305719
Reassigning to KGet. See comment 2 for info how this could be implemented.
Hey! We don't use Dolphin directly, but simply "new KRun(directory, this, 0, true, false);", so I suppose this has to be fixed in kdelibs. Lukas
I would also like to see this implemented, but I also noticed we just KRun the directory which, incidentally, opens Dolphin because it happens to be the file manager of our choice. That is obviously good because KGet will honor whatever file manager the user has chosen. Yet, I think we can go a bit further and add an integration option to integrate directly to dolphin, e.g. a checkbox reading "Always open destination folders in Dolphin" and then check for that configuration value when opening a destination and decide whether to use a generic KRun or specifically calling dolphin. What do you think?
Readding the kget list to the CC...
Created attachment 75243 [details] Implementation of Dolphin integration The attached patch implements my proposal. How does it look?
Sorry, that I no longer runs KDE4 ... as long as it looks good to you, it's good. On Wed, Nov 14, 2012 at 8:05 PM, David E.
