Can someone please tell me how to type or paste in smb://server/share or
ftp://remoteserver or anything else into the breadcrumbs?
Not having the option to toggle to text input/location bar and making it
STICKY is stupid. I can CTRL-L or Go
This such a terrible decision for an LTS.
I never use the breadcrumbs feature because it takes too long and is
inflexible.

[FFe] Toggle button for Nautilus location
The problem with Ctrl+L is, that almost nobody knows it. I found it
here. And I am almost angry, that some developers who think they know
better remove such a every-day use feature. Sometimes i like to paste a
url, and when i know where i want to go, your much faster in text mode
than with
When I first read that the button is gone, I thought what the hack, why
do they remove it!.
But after thinking about it: When I switch to that mode the very most
likely thing is that I then need to touch the keyboard anyway - why else
switch to the path edit mode? So when I am already know that I
The problem with Ctrl+L is that this is not ergonomic, because you cannot find
out (apart by going to a forum or bug report like this one) by yourself.
When you want to do this, you are just going to fiddle around with the mouse to
find a way to copy the path or paste it. If it is not obvious
In the menu at Go--Location there is the hotkey displayed. At least it
is the same hotkey as in Firefox that makes it memorizable a bit better.
But anyway I also didn't know about that hotkey in nautilus (and I am a
hotkey-fanatic ;-) ). I think, most people are wishing both options -
hotkey and
Even more: We need the additional GO button when the location bar is in
text mode rather than in breadcrumb mode!

it's a keybinding as any and written clearly next to the go menu entry
which matches the action too...

I just want the text-input. I never want to see those breadcrumb-buttons ever
again. And I do not want to open gconftool.
Control+L doesn't stick, and always defaults back to the breadcrumbs.
I do believe removing the switch-button is a good idea, but it should be
replaced with an option in the
I would definitely NOT want to put that button away and have an option
in the preferences dialog. Because BOTH is USEFUL - I mostly use the
breadcrumb, but sometimes also the text-input.

The issue with Ctrl-L is that *it is not a toggle*. Once you enter text
mode, you cannot press Ctrl-L again to move back to button mode. Yes,
this was a very useful feature: enter text mode to navigate to some
distant path, then go back to buttons when you reach that. A common use

In comparison with Vista/7 I prefer the way with the toggle button. And
I think for the dummy user even easier to handle.

Accessing the text version of the path is sometimes necessary when you want to
copy in a email the full path to a directory. I even found out recently (I
don't have Windows at home) that although Win7 is having something similar to
the button you can easily toggle it to text to copy and paste
you can use ctrl-L for getting the entry easily

True. But
1. The toggle mode is still lost.
- Yes why would I ever want to toggle back? Suddenly I might find myself more
comfortable browsing to the place anyway. Maybe I didn't remember it's correct
path by heart? Now I must click some random Back or Parent directory button or
browse
I can not understand why they don't put an option like this in the
preferences window.
Editing a few gconf-keys is not an option.

But we do not want it to be enabled by default. I want to be able to
toggle between the modes.
I find the button really useful when I quickly want to type in and jump
to /usr/share/whatever instead of navigating manually. On the other hand
the default layout is really useful since you can middle
use ctrl-L if you want to type something, you are using the keyboard
anyway to type no?

This is absolutely a bad idea. Not only is the button gone, but I prefer the
location string, rather than these silly little little drive buttons and
you can't toggle anymore either! If I went to the location path string, and
then wanted to get back... I can't!!
And I have looked, but not
Im missing this feature as well

@Sebastien, even if it is an upstream choice, it is wrong. This should

Michael: you may say it's wrong, but the developers may not agree with that.
Therefore it would be wrong to demand this change to be reversed immediately.
Of course you could argue for your case and convince the Nautilus developers
that you're right, or convince the Ubuntu Desktop team to
