Hmmm, I can't tell where it really lives .. in Thunderbird which selects and configures one of the multiple filepicker dialogs, an OS provides .. or in the filepicker dialog of the OS itself. My profession is mechatronics, with just a little knowledge about software and programming - far from enough to understand the details inside of thunderbird (I tried, but didn't get that deep). > > I can't "Save all" attachments with an "Open" dialog - it just won't save > > anything anywhere, at least in linux. > > What happens if you do "Save all", select a target folder, and click "Open" > (as in "open/use/select this folder for saving")? > If it does *not* save your attachments into that folder, please file a new > bug for that. If I click "Open" .. nothing happens .. the "Open" button changes to the active-color and stays active but nothing further happens. When I select the attachments, do a right-click and "save all" then I do get a different dialog with a "Save" button at the lower right for each of the attachments. It's an updated Arch-Linux (Manjaro) - with KDE / Plasma Qt: 5.14.2 KDE: 5.70.0 Kind regards and thank you for looking into it. - I won't mind if that's not solved in the next decade - I'll work with thunderbird anyway and use the context menu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1774121 Title: Save button on "Save All Attachments" dialog says "Open" Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Good day, I'd like to report a bug in Thunderbird 52.8.0 (64 bit).
