Public bug reported: If I edit a menu item's properties in main menu (launcher properties), I can click the icon-area to bring up a browse icons dialogue (BiD). In the BiD there is a button on the upper right called "browse", which brings up a nautilus-type dialogue. This dialogue doesn't show any icons, or any file, except directories. It is just a complicated and confusing way to change directories.
I think it should show files as well as folders, and probably display as icon images any image files which could be so used. As it is now, it's not very useful for browsing. Since you can't see any file, let alone icons, you already would need to have memorized the location of particular icons, and so could just have entered the location in the area on the left of the window in the first place. -- If this nautilus-type browse dialogue were changed to show files, I think it should also allow you to select an icon directly. Once selected, it and the rest of the icons, if any, in that directory could be shown in the lower part of the BiD, with your selected icon hightlighted, and its location written in the location area. ** Affects: launcher (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- In the Browse icon Dialogue, the Browse option to pick a location doesn't show files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283051 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
