This may be a bit late, but I have a fairly similar problem. I have wine installed and when I want to set the default program for a pcap file (used with Wireshark), I see around fourty listings of A wine application and 10 listings of Adobe Photoshop CS2 as well as hh (whatever that is). -- 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 360553] Re: 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted
The list is sorted by most likely candidate, ie you get the applications corresponding to the file you want to open first and then other things, it's not clear that prefering alphabetic order and listing applications not working on the file first would be a win there -- 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 360553] Re: 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted
First, let's be sure we're talking about the same thing... I am referring to Right click - Open With - Open With Other Application, at which point a scroll list opens with the option to 'Use a custom command'. (the options in the first 'Open With' menu are indeed the 'most likely' ones and seem to work fine) If so, then this seems to be a 'do what I'm thinking' feature. Taking a single example, right clicking on a .txt file and selecting Open With - Open With Other Application showed me a list which, on the first page, offers me 'Disc Burner' 'F-Spot Photo Viewer' and 'Rhythmbox Music player' amongst others. Yet, if I scroll down a page, I can choose Document Viewer.. and if I scroll right to the bottom, I can choose Openoffice Writer - an application I might actually want to open a text file with. I fail to see how this is either logical, or more importantly, intuitive. To me it is confusing, to a new user it must be at best a bug, and at worst elitist. -- 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 360553] Re: 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted
the clever ordering seems to not be working in the current version or that was something which has been discussed but not implemented, what would be the best option though, to sort thing in alphabetic order or to try to present most likely choice at the start of the list? -- 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 360553] Re: 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted
I have noticed that most applications do a very poor job of specifying supported MIME types, which would cause OpenOffice to not be suggested for opening a .txt file as Gavin mentions. If there's a good chance that we will fail to make good suggestions, alphabetizing the list of applications may turn out to be more usable. -- 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 360553] Re: 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted
What about both?

[Bug 360553] Re: 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted
I was going to suggest the same as Ricardo - A handful(max 5?) of likely candidates, a separator, and the remaining applications - each list sorted independently. -- 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 360553] Re: 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted
The 'top 5' should already be covered by the handful of 'Right click - Open With - Open With Application Name' . If the user has gone as far as 'Open With - Open With Other Application' then an alpha-sorted list of all apps seems to be the only logical choice. FWIW, Windows users will expect an alpha-sorted list given the operation of Windows' own 'Open With...' facility -- 'Open With' Nautilus list is unsorted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
