[Bug 1170647] Re: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one
An enhancement of the temporary workaround in comment #109 above, using a single Launcher icon on Launcher (without using a second icon in the running-apps section) 1) Use the name files.desktop (instead of nautilus.desktop which is already used) 2) Replace all instances of nautilus.desktop in the file ~/.local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache 3) Use a script like the one below in a new desktop file in the folder ~/.config/autostart/ sleep 10 nautilus -q This gave me a new, fully functioning Nautilus icon (even for the Trash window) in the Launcher, except that it no longer displayed the usual User Folders and bookmarks, which I had to manually insert into my new files.desktop file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170647 Title: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1170647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

A possible (maybe better) temporary workaround that keeps a Launcher icon, but also shows another Nautilus icon in the running-apps section of the Launcher, which behaves as it should both for other (internal and external) drives and Trash: 1) Open the folder ~/.local/share/applications and change the name of the desktop file for the Nautilus icon on the Launcher (e.g. I've changed org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop to nautilus.desktop. 2) Start dconf Editor, go to com.canonical.unity.launcher and add the new entry to the list of favorites. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170647 Title: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1170647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1170647] Re: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one
This problem is quite critical in my opinion. Why? Because I want to turn some users to Ubuntu (mostly parents who don't game, Photoshop, etc., just average users), but I just couldn't do that, because then I had to start with: Hey! There is a great open source operating system, so cool, stable (… etc.). There is only one problem: the file manager does this, so we just have to unlock the most used icon from the dock. And they would ask: aren't they working on this? I would say: yes they have been working on this for the last year... But the system is top notch! … It just doesn't sound right, and my partners would lose trust really quick. But now it turns out, that this is not a bug! This is a design choice, which is actually backed up by Mark Shuttleworth himself! That made me start thinking, and playing with the system. I realized, that when I select Trash, or an external drive, their respective icons get activated. I didn't recognized it until today, however, I've been using Ubuntu for a long time! (Maybe it's because the unlucky color of the dock based on the wallpaper). So, I came up with a possible fix I would like to see happening: when the Trash, or an external drive is selected, than the arrow (and active highlight) from Files should go to the respective icon (this requires that the external drives cannot be removed from the dock... or at least get activated ad hoc in situations like this), and it should vanish from Files. Furthermore, Files should be renamed to Home. Furthermore, these icons should be packed together somehow. Like all of the are at the bottom. That's it. Than we would have a system that works logically that supports an idea, that is Fresh, and Intuitive: we're not used to it, but it's good in my opinion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170647 Title: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1170647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1170647] Re: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one
The problem here is that the Ubuntu developers decided that when you click the file manager icon, your home folder should open. So, when the trash (or a device) is open, clicking the file manager icon opens a new window with the home folder. Even Mark Shuttleworth said that's the intended behavior: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/769515/comments/3 This traded one usability problem by another! When only the trash in open, for example, the file manager icon is also highlighted, and Unity indicates with two arrows that the file manager is open and focused. Also, the windows is minimized/restored to/from that icon. If this behavior is to be kept, these issues should be fixed because they are very misleading. Or just revert the behavior! If you put the cursor over the file manager icon, the tooltip says Files, not Home Folder. So, why would the user expect that this icon is used only to open the home folder? My vote goes to reverting this behavior (someone provided a patch already).

@ Alberto Salvia Novella Thanks for explaining this perfectly Until I read #81, nautilus's behaviour was utterly erratic and perplexing to me. This probably affects 99% of users. This problem is exacerbated for users like me who keep most of their files in a separate partition (for easy access in dual-boot windows/ubuntu setup). This is clearly a UI FAIL. The icon in launcher is the same for nautilus file manager and for home folder. The simplest solution is to eradicate this distinction between File manager window showing a home folder and file manager showing other folders. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170647 Title: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1170647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1170647] Re: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one
The root problem of this bug is at the design level: Unity developers thought users would understand better the Files icon as the place where their personal files are located, rather than the files manager itself. But, since this icon also needed to command the files manager, this design created both a duality in functionality and confusion in how the user shall understand the icon; as its meaning changes depending on the situation. So the fix is simply to make the icon mean the files manager under every circumstance, not the user's home folder: to make the icon behave equally as when it isn't locked into the launcher. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170647 Title: After minimizing an external media, clicking on the Files icon on the Launcher doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1170647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
