[Bug 1825720] Re: No option to 'star' file in 19.04
Further to comment #6, this bug report did not expire due to bug watches. Issues '243' and '947' were closed some time ago so their fixes would now be in the most recent releases of Ubuntu. This problem was reported against the following releases: Ubuntu 19.10 (eoan) which reached end-of-life on July 17, 2020. Ubuntu 19.04 (disco) which reached end-of-life on January 23, 2020. The reported issue was "I should be able to right-click a file/folder and select star". Using Ubuntu 22.04 I can't find a file in $HOME that I can't 'star' so I'm closing this issue as being fixed in the most recent releases of Ubuntu. ** Tags added: eoan ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825720 Title: No option to 'star' file in 19.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1825720/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for your bug report, on what file are you trying?

What the hell is the solution? Goto settings...goto gear button...??? Yes we know gear button is settings. Please if you don't have the time in the world to tell us the solution then don't. Multiple users are having this issue. As @Jorge said, I have been using Ubuntu for a long time now.

[Bug 1825720] Re: No option to 'star' file in 19.04
This is another weird solution. It may be correct but there is absolutely no evidence or hints that this is the way to solve it. A feature in Nautilus as simple as starring a file or folder so that it can show up in the Starred entry in the sidebar should be as easy as bookmarking a location, or renaming a file. The option should be on the list after right click, without a hidden and obscure trail to enable it. Now, the need to go to Settings, then Search, then "gear", then Other, then... is a complete nonsense. I've been using Ubuntu and other Linux distros since 1998 (eventually) and 2005 (continuously) and it seems that the developers' community does all efforts to make things difficult. Come on! A feature in an application must be set/unset in the application settings/properties. A new feature should be ON by default, or at least asked during installation. Imagine you buying a car with a new feature, say ABS... the salesperson says "This car has ABS" and nothing else, and you leave happily driving, and your ABS does not work, just to realize after exhaustive search that you must take the car to Grease Monkeys to enable the feature. ABSolutely nonsense! You keep the secrets on an almost unreachable oracle as if you don't want this marvelous OS to grow and become popular. YOU make it difficult. YOU want to keep it restricted to a small community. Laypeople have enormous difficulties to handle things like that.

go to settings > search. then look for a setting icon on bottom right of the box and click it. Go to other and select those folders where you want the Star to work -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825720 Title: No option to 'star' file in 19.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1825720/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
