Description Louis Moureaux 2025-07-25 15:50:50 UTC
SUMMARY
When navigating to a document using the keyboard, Okular ends up opening all files in a folder.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Okular
2. Select File->Open
3. The file chooser dialog opens with the file name field focused
4. Start typing the name of a subfolder you'd like to navigate to. If needed, use Alt+up arrow to navigate one folder up.
5. Use the up/down arrow keys to highlight the folder in the dropdown
6. Hit Enter

OBSERVED RESULT
The file dialog closes and Okular opens all files in the folder.

EXPECTED RESULT
The file dialog navigates to the selected folder.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: KDE neon User Edition
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.15.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The file dialog correctly navigates to the desired folder when appending a / to the folder name.

I'm opening against Okular because this is where I get the bug, but it might well be an issue in frameworks.
