Bug ID: 376002
Summary: Selecting cover image should open file dialogue at the
last folder used
Product: tellico
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: ro...@periapsis.org
Reporter: k...@huftis.org
Target Milestone: ---
When selecting a cover image (e.g. for a book), the ‘Open file’ dialogue is
always opened at my home folder ($HOME). I have a folder with book covers, and
it’s a bit annoying to have to navigate to this folder each time. Suggestion:
When pressing the ‘Select Image’, default to the folder lasted used to select
an image. (This is also how the ‘Open File’ feature in most KDE applications
work.)
A few implementation details:
1. This folder used could be stored in the Tellico settings file or, perhaps
preferably, in the collection file. If it is stored in the collection file, one
can have different default folders for different collection, e.g. one folder
for book covers and one folder for CD covers.
2. The very first time uses the ‘Select Image’ feature, default to the user’s
‘pictures’ folder (i.e. the output of the ‘xdg-user-dir PICTURES’ command)
instead of the user’s home folder.
3. If the last used folder doesn’t exist anymore, default to the user’s
‘pictures’ folder.
