Bug ID: 507825
Summary: The File dialog of KUrlRequester opens an incorrect
location
Classification: Frameworks and Libraries
Product: frameworks-kio
Version First 6.16.0
Reported In:
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
This is a Windows specific issue, probably related to the fact that it uses
native file dialogs
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open an App with a KUrlRequester widget, like Kdenlive on Windows
2. Click on the button of the KUrlRequester widget to open the file dialog (in
Kdenlive Settings > environement)
OBSERVED RESULT
The file dialog always opens in C:\Windows\System32, whatever url is entered in
the KUrlRequester lineedit.
EXPECTED RESULT
The file dialog should open the directory and file that appears in the
KUrlRequester lineedit.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 11
KDE Frameworks Version: git master (6.18)
Qt Version: 6.8.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Patching kurlrequester like this fixes the issue ( I can create an MR if that
helps):
