Ok, just to clarify a bit here. I think the case of a usb-connected volume is a separate bug and I will file that next.
@Mark - Even if Nautilus was one of the default folders in the launcher I have since removed it because I didn't think I needed it. As this is an editable item in the launcher I don't think we can rely on it existing there. Unless we want to make it mandatory, but that might seem redundant to the files place. The core bug still stands, that it is next to impossible to open a nautilus window. The proposed fix of putting a folder icon the section title bar does avoid breaking translations freeze, but doesn't really indicate that I can open that folder. Can we not use stock translations for this? I have a hard time believing we have never translated "Open Folder". A couple more use cases: * I exported a bunch of pictures to my Desktop and I want to zip them into one file to send to my parents. In order to do this I need to open a nautilus window, but can't seem to do so. I click find the Desktop folder in the "Folders" filter, but clicking on that folder stays in Unity and doesn't allow me to select multiple files, much less perform any other action than opening the file. * I download a form from my local town council that is an editable pdf. The pdf can't be edited in Evince, so I want to open it in Adobe Reader, but there is no right-click function in Unity. * I want to get to a diagram I have stored in my Projects folder I created in my home directory. I haven't accessed this folder in a while, but want to view the diagram to see if it is appropriate to send on. As the Projects folder was never set as a "Favourite" folder and doesn't show up in my history I can't seem to find it in Unity. I'll try to come up with some more, but it really is quite frustrating to not have access to a file browser. -- Opening a nautilus window is next to impossible https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/633201 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
