I want to make sure that's clear to avoid unintended side effects (like making the user open the folder themselves). The intended functionality is that when the button is clicked, the bookmarks library/sidebar/etc opens the containing folder *on its own* and scrolls down (well, it doesn't actually do any visible scrolling, but opens to the position in that folder where the bookmark is) to the bookmark that the user clicked "Show in Folder" on. As well as opening the folder to where the bookmark is, the manager also highlights the folder location in the list of folders/folder tree (which AFAIK it does when you open a folder the normal way, so it's probably the same code for that). Basically, it just programmatically opens the folder and then locates the bookmark. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1672139 Title: Add "Open Enclosing Folder" context menu to search results of bookmarks in the Library window (link to view/open containing folder, parent folder button) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1672139/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
