Expected:
Starting with no open application:
1) Attach an external drive (usb pen for example)
2) Click on the external drive icon on the unity launcher to open Files
(Nautilus) on the usb drive path
3) Open another app (a browser for example)
4) Click on the Files (Nautilus) icon to get it in focus
What happens:
Starting with no open application:
1) Attach an external drive (usb pen for example)
2) Click on the external drive icon on the unity launcher to open Files
(Nautilus) on the usb drive path
3) Open another app (a browser for example)
4) Click on the Files (Nautilus) icon to get it in focus, but instead a NEW
instance of Files (Nautilus) is opened (the default behaviour when Files
(Nautilus) is closed and you open it first)
Additional informations:
If you have both a Nautilus window under "~", and another under the path of the
external drive, when you click on the nautilus icon it behaves correctly and
make you choose which of the two you want to focus. This doesn't happen if both
windows are under an external drive (or partition) path, as in this case it
opens a third Nautilus window instead (under ~).
It seems like Nautilus (or maybe Unity) is not able to recognize the
windows of the external drives as instances of Nautilus itself.
** Also affects: nautilus
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Summary changed:
- Clicking the launcher icon for Nautilus opens a 2nd window when a device is
attached
+ Clicking the nautilus icon for focusing a window of an external device opens
a new window instead
