Bug ID: 380024
Summary: Opening a remote file and clicking "Open" resets the
file picker's location to the user's home directory
Product: kate
Version: 16.12
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: kde_b...@multiwebinc.com
Target Milestone: ---
When I open a local file in Kate that is located somewhere outside of my home
directory and then click the "Open" button to open a second file, the directory
of the currently open file is used in the file picker dialog.
For example, open /home/user/Desktop/folder/file.txt and when you click on
"Open" again, the file picker displays /home/user/Desktop/folder/. This makes
opening several files from the same directory very convenient.
This was also the behaviour for previous versions of kate, but after upgrading
from Ubuntu 16.10 to 17.04, that is no longer the case for remote files. When
opening subsequent remote files, the directory in the file picker is reset
every time back to the user's home directory.
Note: I have tested using SFTP, but not any other remote protocol since I don't
have any others available.
