Description Mark Lynch 2003-11-18 16:19:11 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.93)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:          Linux

When using the .directory file to change a folder graphic - in this case for cover art - it is not possible to use a relative path. I.e. relative to the .directory file.

Should be able to use this:
[Desktop Entry]
Icon=folder.png

But instead need:
Desktop Entry]
Icon=/home/shared/music/Coldplay-Parachutes/folder.png


This may be more a wish than a bug, but I'll leave that to your discretion.
Cheers

Actually on further testing I believe it does work when you are in the directory (i.e.  it changes the konq icon) but it doesn't work when viewing the folder from the parent directory as it should.
