Public bug reported: It is a weird bug with "Save As ..." dialog of nautilus, affecting apps like gedit, firefox etc. I'll try my best to describe it clearly. In case I didn't , there is a screencast showing this issue attached.
It happens when you save a file. Normally no matter how you changed the destination directory you want to save that file, the file name field should remain untouched. But now in Feisty, when you are switching between some "special" directories, the file name will suddenly disappear. I've not completely figured out what kind of directories will trigger the problem and how "special" they are. Seems the directory should contain one or several single files of a special type. Because when the file name disappears, I notice another file name, which is of one of the files in the current directory, will flash away in the file name field before the field becomes empty. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Changed in: Ubuntu Sourcepackagename: None => nautilus -- File name disppears in Nautilus "Save As ..."
