[Desktop-packages] [Bug 362112] Re: Nautilus location bar buttons take us backwards in history, but not forwards
Upstream bug showing "RESOLVED FIXED" on 2017-08-18 Tested ok in Ubuntu 18.04 and nautilus 3.26.4 Marking as "Fix Released" to close ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/362112 Title: Nautilus location bar buttons take us backwards in history, but not forwards Status in Nautilus: Fix Released Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: nautilus Using Nautilus in "browser mode": 1. Gnome Places --> Home Folder (for someuser). This brings up a new Nautilus window. History menus: Back: . Fwd: 2. Open the Music directory. Back: someuser. Fwd: 3. Open a subdirectory of Music, e.g. Beach Boys. Back: Music, someuser. Fwd: 4. Click the Location Bar Button "someuser". Back: . Fwd: Music, Beach Boys. 5. Click on Location Bar Button "Beach Boys". Back: someuser. Fwd: BUG: It seems inconsistent and strange that clicking on the location bar buttons that represent the directory path would take me backwards in the history. It is then inconsistent and strange that clicking on the buttons that are ahead of the current button do NOT take me forward in the path. That is, when I click them for directories that are parents, grand- parents, etc. of the current/working directory, then I am actually somehow/someway navigating in the navigation history stacks. But when I click on a child, grand-child, etc. in the location bar buttons, then I am actually starting a new path (clearing the fwd stack). Perhaps this is by design, but if so, then I think the rules for these buttons should be clearly stated in a design document. Each step/behavior should be able to be conveyed (even if it is non- deterministic) in the Gnome Nautilus Help. ( Bonus Question: What happens after step 5 when you click on "Music" in the location bar buttons? ) ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.10 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/nautilus Package: nautilus 1:2.24.1-0ubuntu2 ProcEnviron: PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: nautilus Uname: Linux 2.6.27-11-generic x86_64 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/362112/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
