Title:
Browser: tree view rendering problem
Status in Nautilus:
Expired
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
When I use Nautilus in "Browser" mode, and I explore the "tree" structure with
the mouse, I found an annoying thing, see screenshot.
Folder have a little "arrow" widget on their left, that you can click to
"unfold" them and reveal subfolders. That's fine.
The problem is that you get this arrow even for folders that do NOT have
sub-folders, so it's basically lying to you, and you can't use/rely on the
presence of the arrow widget to quickly/visually see whether a folder has or
hans't a subfolder.
Then it gets even worse : when you click on the arrow of a folder that's
"supposed" to have subfolders, but hasn't any, it redraws the tree struture
any,
as if there were subfolders, and writes "(Empty)", eventhough the folder has
files in them, as per my example in the screenshot.
All this should be gotten rid of. When a folder has no subfolder in it,
Nautilus
shouldn't put an arrow widget next to it, to start with. Consequently, this
will
also avoid the "Empty" ghost folder, killing two birds with one stone...
