SUMMARY (this is on X11, not tested on Wayland) When using the "open containing folder" action from a different program (tested with VSCodium, Jetbrains IDEs, and Firefox' download notification), the action only succeeds if none of the parent folders are currently opened within dolphin, else whichever parent folder is opened will be focused instead. In other words, "open containing folder" on any file or folder within the directory /home/naxdy/git/some_project will only succeed properly if none of the upper level folders are opened within dolphin. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open dolphin and point to /home/[user] 2. Download a file in Firefox (e.g. the HTML of this page) 3. Upon download, select "open containing folder" from the navigation's burger menu OBSERVED RESULT Dolphin focuses, and if there are multiple tabs, the tab pointing to /home/[user] will focus, but the containing folder (/home/[user]/Downloads) is not opened. EXPECTED RESULT Dolphin focuses and a new tab is created, pointing to /home/[user]/Downloads SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo 6.0.6 / 5.26.2 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0 Qt Version: 5.15.5
Thanks for the report! This should already be fixed for the next release by https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/commit/4d81aabd1ee78c2fca61452ef3a866cfad0c88a5. (I also just re-tested to confirm.) If it is for some reason not fixed for you after updating to Dolphin 22.12, which will be released next month, feel free to re-open this merge request. Cheers!
