Description Raghavendra kamath 2019-09-10 14:13:19 UTC
SUMMARY
Often time the file that user is working on is located deep inside work folder. It would be handy if there is an option to show the file in file manager. The option can be in the file menu as "Show in File Manager" which will open the native file manager window with folder in which the file is present.

This could be handy shortcut to browse the project folder quickly.

This would be neat. Maybe we could put it under the File > "Open existing document as Untitled document..." option and call it something like

"Open file location"

I would also wish this feature in Krita 5 if possible. I began loving this feature a lot when using Kate text editor if you right click on a text file's tab in Kate there is a "Open Containing Folder" option and a "Copy File Path" option. Both these options are very useful. "Copy File Path" is very handy when say uploading the .kra to google drive in the web browser. The other option is super useful in many cases e.g. if you have a ref folder relative to the .kra project folder or something else. This feature is also very useful when having the same file name in different folders and you are a bit confused.

Both these options can reside in the File menu say below "Export Advanced".
