I can confirm this within Firefox (Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071204 Ubuntu/7.10 (gutsy) Firefox/2.0.0.11), but not in gEdit. I've testing this in several situations (save page as, save download, open file, save frame as). The two features that repeat the bug are "save download" and "save frame as". Save Download is described below:
Make sure your Firefox settings allow you to pick the location to save downloads: Edit -> Preferences -> Main -> [Downloads] -> (*) Always ask me where to save files Click on a link (anywhere) that will prompt you to download a file. 1. When the Download Dialog appears (Open/Save); Make sure "Save to Disk" is selected and click "OK" 2. The File-Picker window appears. Browse to your home directory, right-click, mark "Show Hidden Files". At this point, the hidden files appear. If you repeat the last step (step 2), everything works normally. Leaving "Show Hidden Files" checked; 3. Click the "Cancel" button. 4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 (in order): The result will show a partial listing of the hidden files/directories in your home directory --limited to the number of NON-hidden files/directories in your home directory. Conclusion / Evaluation: It seems that upon returning and removing the "Show Hidden Files" option, the directory listing is truncated to the correct NUMBER OF ITEMS (files/directories) that are NOT hidden, but their actual names are not updated. Looks like a missing step in the standard operation of updating a directory listing. At the time of writing this, I had just installed fresh from a 7.10 (gutsy) disc. I'm running a 64bit version (core 2 quad). -- Show Hidden Files broken in common dialogs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136711 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
