[Bug 123458] Re: GNOME panel can't always launch folders with filenames containing spaces

[Bug 123458] GNOME panel doesn't correctly handle dragged folders
You have been subscribed to a public bug: Steps to reproduce: Drag a folder on the desktop into the GNOME panel at the top of the screen (analogous to the Windows taskbar). Cursor changes to a squared +, indicating that the item can be copied. Release cursor. A new item is added to the panel: a red X. Clicking pops up a dialog "Could not launch item", "Not a launchable item." Expected results: clicking opens the folder that I dragged onto the GNOME panel. More information: Right-click -> Properties brings up a Launcher Properties window showing the following: Type is Application. Name, Command, and Comment are empty. There is no icon. Workaround: I go about manually creating the launcher. I type in a name, and for the location I click Browse and try to select the folder on the desktop. Peskily, the dialog that pops up is "Choose a file" and does not seem to allow choosing a directory - selecting a directory just opens it. Which I suppose makes sense given the name of the dialog. I resign to selecting a file within the directory, and then manually editing the Location to be a file:/// URL pointing to a directory.

[Bug 123458] Re: GNOME panel can't always launch folders with filenames containing spaces
I can confirm that this appears to be fixed in Hardy Heron Alpha 4 (tested both with live CD and installed on hard disk). The launcher on the GNOME panel correctly has spaces replaced by %20, and opens the folder without problems. -- GNOME panel can't always launch folders with filenames containing spaces https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 123458] GNOME panel doesn't correctly handle dragged folders
You have been subscribed to a public bug: Steps to reproduce: Drag a folder on the desktop into the GNOME panel at the top of the screen (analogous to the Windows taskbar). Cursor changes to a squared +, indicating that the item can be copied. Release cursor. A new item is added to the panel: a red X. Clicking pops up a dialog "Could not launch item", "Not a launchable item." Expected results: clicking opens the folder that I dragged onto the GNOME panel. More information: Right-click -> Properties brings up a Launcher Properties window showing the following: Type is Application. Name, Command, and Comment are empty. There is no icon. Workaround: I go about manually creating the launcher. I type in a name, and for the location I click Browse and try to select the folder on the desktop. Peskily, the dialog that pops up is "Choose a file" and does not seem to allow choosing a directory - selecting a directory just opens it. Which I suppose makes sense given the name of the dialog. I resign to selecting a file within the directory, and then manually editing the Location to be a file:/// URL pointing to a directory. This works, at last. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Low Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Incomplete ** Tags: folders gnome panel -- GNOME panel doesn't correctly handle dragged folders https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123458 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 123458] Re: GNOME panel can't always launch folders with filenames containing spaces
Still seeing this in Gutsy Gibbon, clean install. Steps to reproduce: 1. On desktop, Right-Click -> Create Folder. 2. Drag "untitled folder" to the GNOME panel. 3. Drag the folder across the GNOME panel. 4. Click the icon. Results: Icon changes to a spring with a platform on top. Clicking it pops up a dialog: Error Could not launch application Not a launchable item Right-click -> Properties brings up the Launcher Properties dialog, which says: Type: Application Name: Command: Comment: (all the fields except Type are blank). Not exactly sure how to re-open.
