Bug ID: 363673
Summary: Popup menu - Create New - Link to Application does
nothing useful
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment
Assignee: se...@kde.org
Reporter: j...@keelhaul.me.uk
This is using the Folder View desktop containment. The desktop popup menu
contains Create New - Link to Application... but selecting this action does
nothing useful.
The initial dialogue displayed is titled "Properties for Program.desktop -
Plasma" and looks very much like the standard file properties dialogue, but it
only has the "General" and "Permissions" tabs. The "General" tab has "Link to
Application" in the name line edit and "Location" shows
":/kio5/newfile-templates/.source". The "Permissions" tab shows mode 7777.
There seems to be nowhere to select an application or enter a command line.
Leaving all the fields as default and clicking on "OK" shows the error message
"The file or folder :/kio5/newfile-templates/.source/Program.desktop does not
exist" and nothing is created on the desktop.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. From the desktop popup menu, select Create New - Link to Application.
2. Observe dialogue appearance as above.
3. Click "OK".
4. Observe error message as above.
