Title:
hidden file copied with click+drag is not shown despite "show hidden
files" setting
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
- navigate to a folder that contains at least a hidden file (file whose name
starts with a ".")
- be sure to enable the "show hidden files" option in the View menu
- hold the Ctrl key pressed
- click on a hidden file and drag it into another place in the same folder
- release the mouse button and the ctrl key
Expected: the copied file should be shown, since the "show hidden
files" option is enabled.
Observed: the file is copied but the copy is not visible, so the user
has the impression that the file isn't copied at all. Moreover, even
if you collapse and re-expand the folder (i'm in list view) the folder
is not refreshed and you still won't see the copies. I'm not sure what
action exactly is required in order to have the folder view be
refreshed and finally show the copied hidden files: i ended up closing
nautilus (convinced the file hadn't been copied) then I reopened it, I
enabled the "show hidden files" again and there they were.
This is just one of many issue in Nautilus when handling hidden files.
