[Desktop-packages] [Bug 853061] [NEW] New Open with in right click dialogue box does not allow custom commands
Public bug reported: Hi I dnn't know if this is a bug or a feature request. But it seems to me to be an oversight, and so I'm posting it as a bug. I have found the new Open with... option when right clicking a program has become too watered down, to the point that it sometimes becomes useless. In 11.10 there is the new Find applications online option. Fair enough, this is a feature that was already incorporated in Windows XP and it might be time to have it in Ubuntu. The trouble is, though, that if the online search is unfruitful, and the application doesn't appear in the list when pressing the button Show other applications it is now not possible for the average person to association an executable programme with an application. For example, I have installed the Atari800 emulator. If I download a game, right click the game and look for Atari800 in the list of applications, I do not find it: and the Find applications online function doesnt find any programme to run with it either. The trouble is that there is no longer a Launch custom command option, nor the possibility of navigating to the application with Nautilus and clicking on the application once found.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 843821] [NEW] Media player cannot be closed
Public bug reported: Hi, I have found that the libreoffice media player cannot be closed once opened. Usually, there is no close button on the top panel. Closing Libreoffice does not correct this issue - when the application is launched again, the media player opens with it and cannot be closed. Possible steps to verify this bug: Open the media player (for example, press the Gallery button, then choose Sounds, then double click any sound file. The media player should then open. It cannot be closed. Close Libreoffice, then re-open LibreOffice opens with media media player which still cannot be closed.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 843821] Re: Media player cannot be closed
Update: eventually managed to close it. I think the trick is to scale the two windows, which makes the button appear in the media player. At first this button won't operate, but when I dragged the window to the centre of the screen it worked. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/843821 Title: Media player cannot be closed Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hi, I have found that the libreoffice media player cannot be closed once opened.
