Bug ID: 492706
Summary: act as administrator -> "create new" buttons/entries
are greyed out and not clickable & copying does not
work
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 24.08.0
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: waynejw...@outlook.com
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. activate the "act as administrator" feature.
2. try to create a new file or subfolder within a folder the current "normal"
user has no writing rights (e.g. "/" ) either by clicking a "create new" button
in a toolbar or by clicking the right mouse button and using the context menu.
3. try to copy a file IN such folder via ctrl+c or clicking "paste" in the
right click context menu.
OBSERVED RESULT
- "create new" toolbar button and mouse right click menu entry (context menu
entry) are greyed out and not clickable.
- when i try to create a new folder with ctrl+shift+n (which is imho the
default keyboard shortcut for creating new folders) it does not work also, but
an orange banner below the location bar in dolphin appears, reading: "Cannot
create new folder: You do not have permission to create items in this folder."
- copying IN the folder does NOT work too. when trying via ctrl+v, the same
orange banner appears. the "paste" entry in the right click context menu does
not show up.
- note that deleting, renaming and duplicating (!) files within the folder DOES
indeed work. (on a side note: there is no "move to trash" option available but
only the "hard"-delete.)
EXPECTED RESULT
creating new files and folders and copying files should be possible. (also
"move to trash" should be an option instead of only the "hard"-delete option.)
