Title:
Ubuntu 12.04 Nautilus view preferences not working
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Ubuntu 12.04 x64, when opening the Natuilus preferences for View many
of the options are not working.
I've only been able to make Natuilus change the icon sizes or style
one time when I first tried this on a clean, new install of 12.04,
after making one change to increase the size of the icon view from
100% to 150%, then none of the view options under the preferences
would work again, they only worked one time...
The only way I can change the icons and size now is under the View
section of the menu, under the Edit - Preferences they no longer work
Here are the steps;
1. Edit - Preferences - Views
2. Default View - View New folders using; Drop down for the 3 choices
not working
3. Icon View Defaults - Default zoom level; Doesn't change icon sizes
4. Compact View Defaults - Default zoom level; Doesn't change icon
sizes
5. List View Defaults; Default zoom level; Doesn't change icon sizes
SORRY ubuntu-bug linux was not run on this bug report, but you can
collect the information for my box from this bug report that I did run
it on;

I forgot to mention if I play with Nautilus long enough it will cause
a popup to appear saying there was a problem with Ubuntu and asking if
I'd like to make a report and then locking the desktop up!
