https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/938 :
In a reddit thread [1] someone pointed to the source code where location-mode is not loaded when the dialog opens [2] (presumably using the default) but it does save the value when closed. [3] [1]: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/7579w0/gsettings_value_getting_overwritten_after_setting/ [2]: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtkfilechooserwidget.c?h=gtk-3-22#n3877 [3]: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtkfilechooserwidget.c?h=gtk-3-22#n3916 GTK developers' response https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/938#note_111883 : It is a private gtk setting, you don't really have any business tweaking it. It may disappear at any point. * * * As for me personally, I'd still like to be able to configure it, particularly, for typing the path on the File Chooser in Firefox, as discussed in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=374011#c133 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1518742 ** Bug watch added: Mozilla Bugzilla #374011 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=374011 ** Bug watch added: Mozilla Bugzilla #1518742 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1518742 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1830979 Title: org.gtk.setting.file-chooser.location-mode setting is not respected and is reset to path-bar To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/1830979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
