I played around modifying another filemanager (thunar), to see which parameters are given, when "Open Containing Folder" is clicked:
It only gets "/home/rrae/Downloads" as a parameter. I think that's insuficcient. Whether or not file managers handle something like... "/home/rrae/Downloads/somefile.tar.bz2" ... in a way as it is in Explorer is out of scope for this bug report, imho Firefox should do a first step in this direction. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129219 Title: firefox download manager - Open containing folder with preselected file in nautilus/file manager To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/129219/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
