Great. I've pushed to master and deleted the filedialog branch. You can do the same as follows: git checkout master git pull git branch -d filedialog That should do it. Ted. On 6/19/21 10:17 AM, chuck elliot wrote: Yep. That all seems good. All the 'Open' options in the file dialog

Yep. That all seems good. All the 'Open' options in the file dialog take me to the right places. enabling 'Use native dialog' gives me the GTK dialog. The config file now contains: [FileDialog] dontUseNative=true useNativeFileDialogs=false Thanks, Chuck. On 19/06/2021 2:30 pm, Ted

Ok, I just posted the "final" fix for this to the filedialog branch. Can you test it in there for me before I merge it? If you aren't already in the filedialog branch, check it out: git checkout filedialog Then pull to get up to date. git pull And build as usual. In the

Glad we finally tracked this one down. It's not complete, though as it only applies to open dialogs. I think we need to make this a setting in the preferences. I'll have a look. Ted. On 6/19/21 5:59 AM, chuck elliot wrote: That did the trick! One caveat - after running the new build

That did the trick! One caveat - after running the new build for the first time, I had to add the [FileDialog] setting because it wasn't present although the timestamp had updated. However, now I can switch between the aberrant GTK behaviour and the desired Qt behaviour by changing that

Ok, I just pushed a change for you to test to a new branch called filedialog. If you are using git (without forking), you can get it as follows: git fetch git checkout -t origin/filedialog Now build and run as usual. After the first run, you will find this in your Rosegarden.conf file:

As I was digging around I saw mention of Qt using "native dialogs". Maybe this is what is going on. Maybe you are using GNOME and somehow Qt is being told to use the native file dialog rather than its own. That might explain why it is using a GTK+ .XBEL file to store these recent used

Ah. False alarm then. The other thing I discovered was that my rg 'Recent' list in 'File Open' is apparently being populated from .local/share/recently-used.xbel which is, I believe, a GTK resource. I don't know if that is supposed to happen. Chuck. On 18/06/2021 2:23 am, Ted Felix

Hi, I think I might have found a clue as to why my rg file dialog is misbehaving. Firstly, I created a new user and then ran rg and all was fine. So it is something to do with my user config. I compared the .config/QtProject.conf files of the two users and there looks to be a problem with

I've done a little more digging and it seems like this could be happening because garbage is getting passed to the file dialogs (QFileDialog falls back on the current directory when it gets a directory that doesn't exist and depending on how you launch rg, the current directory might be the
