It is reproducible apparently. I don't know if it's really a bug but it's confusing, especially for inexperienced users.
Open any folder with enough folders and files to browse different pages, then go in Nautilus' preferences, check "Use Compact Layout" then close preferences and browse a few folders with other folders or files in them. Icons are displayed with compact layout. Fine. Then return into Nautilus prefs, turn off the compact layout option, then browse the folders you visited before : They are still displayed with compact layout but not those you didn't open with compact layout on. I realized that if you right click in the Nautilus window and go to the "Arrange Items" menu, the option "Compact Layout" is automatically checked for all the folders you visited before. Maybe it's done on purpose but in my humble opinion I think it's confusing for the user. -- Nautilus keeps displaying icons in compact layout even after disabling it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470634 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
