Bug ID: 456596
Summary: Location bar fills automatically based on recently
viewed directories, directories sharing subsequent
letters will have the capitalization changed to the
suggestion from "recent"
Product: dolphin
Version: 22.04.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: bars: location
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: momo.in...@gmail.com
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The bar for typing a URL/PATH auto fills a recent directory permanently instead
of it being a suggestion that can be selected with Tab.
In my specific case I wanted to use the sftp protocol, so I typed in sftp://,
but it came out as Sftp://, because a recent directory I have previously typed
in started with a capital S.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have Dolphin remember a recent directory so it shows in the drop down menu
of suggestions when using the directory path bar.
2. Continue typing a different directory and notice how the capitalization from
the original suggestion remains.
OBSERVED RESULT
The wrong capitalization of a word will keep being fed into the location bar as
long as a directory in "recents" shares the letters.
Example: subdirectory named "Androidstudios_install" will be autofilled as
"AndroidStudios_install", because a directory in recents is called
"AndroidStudioProjects".
EXPECTED RESULT
The auto fill will temporarily suggest a directory that you can select with tab
but will not alter the location bar if you just keep typing in it.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.18.10-zen1-1-zen
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.95.0
Qt Version: 5.15.5
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The capitalization might not affect something like the sftp URL from resolving,
however it could disrupt a manually typed directory path because they're case
sensitive.
