GTK's file dialogue is still annoying in 17.10, yes. It would be great if there was a way to always show the location bar, instead of the useless breadcrumb bar.
@ADFH, where is the bug you reported upstream? Can you please post a link? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577879 Title: File save as dialog doesn't switch to keyed in path anymore when pressing enter Status in GTK+: Incomplete Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Not sure if this is in Nautilus or a GTK package or something else.. I run Unity as my desktop environment at the moment. With a recent update, the file save dialog presented to me by Firefox appears to have changed. I'm pretty sure it's an OS dialog and not a Firefox specific control, but please feel free to bounce this to whichever package is responsible for the File Save As dialog generated by Firefox 46.0 in Ubuntu now. In the past, when the save dialog came up, I was able to enter a path (absolute or relative) in the filename field: * If it was a directory path that existed, the directory contents would be shown inside the window, allowing me to then specify a name * If it was a directory path that didn't exist, it'd take me to the deepest part of the path that did match * If it was a directory that did exist, and a filename that didn't, it'd save as that filename in that folder The last is still true, but the others aren't anymore.. Say I have structure: home .../folder ....../sub2 ....../sub3 ... and I last saved into sub3 and I want to save into sub2, if I remove the filename from the name box, and I type ../sub2 and press enter, it doesn't navigate to the folder anymore.. The auto-complete function seems more reliable now, and it knows the folder exists, but the only way to actually show its contents now would be to click through the tree.. This feels like a functionality downgrade. I should be able to type a pathname into the filename area of the dialog, press enter, and have it take me to that particular folder.
