Description Rafael Linux User 2014-07-09 11:25:54 UTC
Gwenview doesn't recognize ORA and KRA files so I can't see them.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a folder with ORA and/or KRA files

Actual Results:  
ORA and KRA files doesn't appear listed

Expected Results:  
To show ORA and KRA files thumbnails
Comment 1 xannax.prozaxx 2015-01-16 11:31:27 UTC
Can confirm.

My setup:

Arch Linux
Qt: 4.8.6
KDE Development Platform: 4.14.3
Gwenview: 4.14.0 pre
Krita: 2.8.7

Gwenview file browser doesn't show .ora files, and forcibly opening them results in:
"loading 'file.ora' failed. Gwenview cannot display documents of type image/openraster".
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2017-11-10 18:16:52 UTC
Gwenview does indeed support .kra files, but the .desktop file doesn't say so. That should be easy to fix.

Gwenview does NOT support .ora files, so let's track that in a different bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=386718
Comment 3 null 2017-11-16 07:01:22 UTC
@cfeck: Nate already worked on it in https://phabricator.kde.org/D8751 (sadly no automatic notification between Phab and Bugzilla). Please comment there if you know how to change the mimetype order.
Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2017-11-29 02:27:02 UTC
I don't :)

Comment #3 has a reference to a commit adding .tga support, not .kra or .ora
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2017-11-29 02:58:42 UTC
That patch was changed to only do .tga support because I couldn't figure out how to fix the default app ordering.

Be the top handler for .kra files by default

Summary:
Currently, if there are any other apps installed that can open .kra files, and they
have the `InitialPreference` value set in their .desktop file, they will open .kra
files by default instead of Krita. This is non-ideal.

This patch sets the `InitialPreference` value in Krita's own .desktop file high
enough that it will always be the default first handler for .kra files.

Test Plan:
- Apply the patch and then this one for Gwenview: D19121
- Rebuild and install both apps
- Run `sudo update-desktop-database`
- Right-click on a .kra file in Dolphin. Krita shows up as the top app to open it, with Gwenview showing up in the "Open With" menu
