I no longer
can find a "Documents Folder" from the
K-Menu. What am I
> missing?
Probably SVN revision r1178412 ;-)
Okay. What happened? :)
I notice a log message associated with creating the MyDocuments directory:
"User cancelled directory creation."
Not a bug, but perhaps consistent with the new message prefix system, perhaps add [My
Documents] to the message. I can file this as a feature request if you want.
Lastly, go ahead and scream at me, but when I test things I have been known to make a few
engineers scream and mumble.
I tried a few twists with the My Documents dialog box.
When I try to change the location to an existing directory that is not $HOME/Documents, I
get the following error messsage:
[Unable to create directory - KDE XDG File Browser Launcher and Prompter]
Unable to create directory "/home/files"
Please check folder permissions and try again
(OK)
The /home/files directory already exists and I tried this as root. So the problem is not
permissions but something with the directory already existing.
Next I tried creating a new directory that did not exist and also not located in $HOME. I
tried to create /home/Documents. I received the following message:
[Error - KDE XDG File Browser Launcher and Prompter]
Unable to run the command specified. The file or folder file:///root/Documents does not
exist.
(OK)
I did this as root, so not a permissions problem. The new directory /home/Documents did
get created, however.
The idea of My Documents normally is limited to the user's home directory, but that is
not always the case.
I hope this helps!
