[Bug 1863157] [NEW] Petition to bring back file name copy/paste functionality in GTK file chooser
Public bug reported: For a very long time, I've never/rarely needed to hand-type file paths/names - it is extremely slow, error-proning and requiring a lot more work (reading/clicking/moving cursors) to do this simple task. Instead, I use tabs in a terminal to navigate, pwd to print, and copy/paste to another file browser or window to use the full path. In many file browsers (like Thunar), I could also single click on the file, and directly paste it to the address bar and it directly gives the full file name. But this becomes increasingly difficult to do on the GTK file chooser rolled out sometimes ago. The file chooser window first removed the file path address bar, but at least there was a button I can click to show it to copy/paste. Then, even that button disappeared - after many frustrating hours, the only way to show the address bar is "Ctrl+L", after reading many similarly frustrated posts https://www.google.com/search?q=unable+to+type+path+dialog+ubuntu https://www.google.com/search?q=unable+to+type+path+dialog+site%3Aaskubuntu.com=unable+to+type+path+dialog+site https://www.google.com/search?q=can+not+type+path+in+file+selector+linux+site:askubuntu.com >From the long lists of complains that one can find online (I could easily find more), I think this just prove that removing/hiding the address bar is very counter intuitive and should be reverted. I see where this came from - to mimic Mac OS, like most GNOME style/appearance was trying to achieve, and this setting maybe cleaner and easier to attract less experienced users, but for people use Linux for work day-in-and-day-out, this is highly annoying and counter productive. Here I would like to petition to revert the change and bring back the address bar in the file chooser dialog (which is shared among not just GNOME, but other GTK based desktops, such as xfce), or at least bring back the button option. ** Affects: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "current file chooser" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1863157/+attachment/5328055/+files/Screenshot_2020-02-13_14-01-19.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1863157 Title: Petition to bring back file name copy/paste functionality in GTK file chooser To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1863157/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 378389] [NEW] font selection dialog style order inconsistancy: oblique comes first
Public bug reported: the original bug was submitted here http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5371 - Description From Qianqian Fang 2009-05-19 03:25:39 UTC (-) [reply] In the font selection dialog, the orders of the font styles appears in the middle column is somewhat random. For most fonts, the order is Medium/Oblique/Bold/BoldOblique, however, for some fonts, the first one is Oblique, or italic. For example, in the attached image, on the left, Tlwg Typist shows the normal order, but TlwgMono appears in the unexpected order. This was tested on Ubuntu 9.04 with Xfce 4.6.0. Both fonts are part of ttf-thai-tlwg package. I opened both fonts with fontforge, the style settings and TTFName items were set correctly with Medium. There are a few others fonts with the same issue. Using the medium or regular face as the default style of a selected font is more anticipated than italic ones. ** Affects: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- font selection dialog style order inconsistancy: oblique comes first https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378389 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
