Bug ID: 407813
Summary: WINDOWS: Cannot browse root directory of each disk
drives
Product: kdenlive
Version: 19.04.1
Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: User Interface
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
File open dialog for "Add Clip" action does not show root directory but current
directory of each disk drive when trying to browse topmost directory.
Windows OS has "Disk Drive" concept, and each drive has its own current
directory.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the CMD prompt.
2. Type in "d:" except quotation marks, and press ENTER
3. Type in "cd \MusicClips" except quotation marks, and press ENTER
4. Type in "\Program Files\Kdenlive-19.04.1\bin\Kdenlive" with quotation marks,
and press ENTER
5. Select Add Clip action (Project menu > Add Clip) or (Just click a small
button on the left top corner of project bin)
6. In the "File Open Dialog", select drive D among hard disk drives.
7. Contents in the browsing area is ones of D:\MusicClips directory
8. Click the "^" button to navigate to the parent directory (In this case, root
directory of D drive)
9. The contents of browsing area are STILL ONES OF PREVIOUS DIRECTORY (means
Kdenlive process's current directory of drive D)
10. Type in "D:\MovieClips" except quotation marks, directly into the "Name"
field and press ENTER to move to and browse D:\MovieClips directory
OBSERVED RESULT
1. Navigating to a root directory shows contents in "current" directory
2. File Open Dialog is closed when enter an absolute path of a directory in the
"Name" field. (Previous version shows the content of type-in directory in this
case)
EXPECTED RESULT
1. Navigating to top(root) directory of each drive should show the contents of
actual root directory.
For example, the parent directory of "C:\Users" is "C:\" not "C:"
"C:\" is the root directory of drive C
"C:" is the (process's) current directory of drive C
They are different.
Kdenlive the latter in case of user intend the former.
