The separate problem of it not working by dragging may be this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/827049 Colin Interestingly if I open a sub-folder and drag the name of the folder from the address bar into the sidebar that works too! -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

But then my move to 12.04 was a messy, broken upgrade from 11.10 :-) Tony -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

[ubuntu-uk] Adding bookmark or dragging folder to sidebar isn't working
12.04, clean install this morning, fully updated. In File manager, with sidebar enabled, if I highlight a folder and click on Bookmarks - Add Bookmark, nothing happens. If I drag the folder to the sidebar, again nothing happens. How do I get the facility to make a bookmark in File Manager? -- Registered Linux User no 240308 GBP's alternative computing:http://gbplinuxfoss.blogspot.com/ Say No to OOXMLhttp://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9594#mpart8 I only accept odf or pdf documents by email -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
