Bug ID: 434920
Summary: File properties dialog should have the Location field
clickable to open the parent folder in a browser
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Sometimes one can get a file properties dialog not through Dolphin (e.g. when
clicking "Edit Application..." in Kickoff's RMB menu), at which point it might
be useful to allow the user to quickly open the file's containing folder in a
file browser.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the plasma main menu
2. Choose an application entry, right click it and choose "Edit Application..."
3. Try to open the folder where the desktop entry file is located
OBSERVED RESULT
One needs to triple click the Location entry, copy, open a file browser, open
the location bar, clear the location bar and paste the copied text.
EXPECTED RESULT
Ideally there would be a way to quickly open a file browser to the displayed
location. A few places in Plasma now use "hyper links" style to show that a
path is clickable, or a small button (like this: [📂]) would be nice, or just
have the text clickable with a pointer cursor to show it is clickable.
