Not so..Above is the problem...hers as well as mine. Exactly.

this is describing my system..rather poorly I admit. the last ) should 
have been on the end. It's difficult with at least 3 OSs & many flavors 
of the 3 on one list.

This description of the "same problem" is rather different, though.

the selector is really picky.  like, you need to highlight the name of
the directory, not go into it.

yes, it is wrong.  we looked at a few definitions of the word, and the
definitions do not translate even metaphorically into what that is on a
computer.

also, if you are in charge of real life folders, the last thing that you
want to do is have folders within folders.  so this word really obscures
the meaning and functionality of what has been traditionally known as a
directory on a computer.

thanks for commiserating with me!

I am trying to bookmark a dir...I don't have files in my Nikon 
dir...only dirs & like the other poster, some have worked & some not.

I see 'folder' drives you nuts also ;^).

i think you are trying to bookmark a file and not a directory (or
"Folder" is what they call them now).

I have the same problem...SuSE 10 Gimp 2.2.7 (with an empty Logo, just 
the background), when it boots & a half a full logo when I go to 
help/about.
