Why even bother with file picker when drag & drop exists?

Why are we doing this?

I don't have these problems in macOS, the file picker will show the files the way I need, all the time
Alexander Davis

Not all distros have that problem. Only ones that insist on using Unity or Gnome. KDE has had a proper file picker for years now.

Once when I saw someone complaining about file pickers I wanted to fix mine, just so I can take a screenshot and show that it works for me. Took me a couple of minutes to fix it. I use KDE so the problem was just Firefox not using KDE tools.
Thomas Carter
Adam Bailey
How do I make chromium use the KDE filepicker?
Cameron Sanchez
I use Pale Meme as a dedicated Jow Forums browser (and not for anything else) specifically because it still has the GTK2 file picker.

Name a linux file picker that does at least a half of these.
Ryder Gray
never said anything about gnu/linux.
explorer.exe is fine, but not good.
i like finder.app which can do everything you listed there and more.
Alexander Phillips
>i like finder.app which can do everything you listed there and more.
Can it merge folders yet?
Nolan Flores
it can and has been able to for years. they actually scrapped that ability from windows 10 until recently.
Mason Reyes
Literally no other file explorers have the ability to open a chosen file direct with other apps from the file picker too
Bentley Murphy
This is a comfort issue instead of a real issue. You can have that by dragging&dropping from Dolphin when the file picker's limits are reached. Anyone wanting to do a certain task is able to do it eventually but the steps might be different. Having image thumbnail view at all was a real issue, but even that is possible to fix nowadays.
Matthew Barnes
>This is a comfort issue instead of a real issue.
What else is file picker supposed to do? If you have to fire a full file manager to pick a file then it's a shitty file picker, simple as that.
Dylan Morris
>If you have to fire a full file manager to pick a file
Actually the goalposts have moved to a totally different galaxy by now. People are talking about deleting and copying files with their file picker for some reason. Of course it can pick a file and it can show a big thumbnail image of it as well.
Christian Nguyen

Ryder Taylor
Just being able to take a file before picking it would be great.
Josiah Johnson
>he saves pictures outside of his home directory
user your personal files don't belong in /boot
Angel Gonzalez
anyone know how to change the default file picker for firefox on linux?
it's so fucking ugly.
Jaxon Lopez
but they don't belong in ~/ either.
at least make a directory in ~/.
Blake Bell
>Pic preview - filename with 90% of space wasted
who the fuck thought its a good idea to do that?
Zachary Campbell
Now open a folder with 10000 pictures in that and see what happens.
Carson Taylor
if you look carefully, you'll notice the zoom slider, which both anons have cranked to the max. That particular layout (image and text on same level) is probably more intended for smaller zoom levels.

Jow Forums has threads all the time about personality tests, political compass tests, etc. So I just saved all of that stuff in there.
>16 points
That was something from voxday addressing what the "alt right" was about in like 2016. It's just something I screencapped, and I generally don't delete things once it goes into my Backup drive.
I have things going back years in there, but for some reason when I transferred everything over to a new drive, the modify dates all changed.

Can someone fucking help me? I use KDE, but it ALWAYS for some unexplained reason goes back to this faggot. It works for a few days after the installation, but then one day just stops. Is there a way how to fix/prevent/set up back?
Thomas Smith
is there any way to do this in xfce?
Charles Baker
what the fuck else are gtk devs spending their time on?
what could possibly be a more pressing issue than this?
Dominic Fisher
Also this guy sounds like a bit of a stuck-up shit.

Qt apps should always use kdialog on KDE.
For firefox you can install xdg-desktop-portal and xdg-desktop-portal-kde and set GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 in the .desktop file.
Nolan Hall
HOW DO YOU GET THUMBNAILS IN THAT PIECE OF SHIT FILE PICKER?!?!?!?!
Alexander Hall
Is it possible to use KDE's file picker in Chromium for example? Or is it bundled this way?
I don't run Gnome nor KDE (I run i3) so I don't mind one or the other. I'm just curious.

Running Chromium with XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE makes it use KDialog on XMonad, this trick probably works with i3 as well
It didn't work with Xfce when I tried it though
Dominic Ortiz
So I'd basically need to patch the source and recompile that shit? I have it intalled via APT
Interesting thanks
Jordan James
pretty much
because gtk devs hate configurability
unless there is some clever way to force it through a theme or something
William Watson
Installing Gentoo GNU isn't a meme afterall
Grayson Bell
>set GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 in the .desktop file.
How can I do that? I'm new to the whole Linux deal.
Eli Adams
not that user but you might be able to get away with just running that firefox with
GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 firefox
setting it as an environment variable (I assume that is what .desktop files do)

Thank you very much, kind user. But it still doesn't work, because every single time I do exactly that and click apply, it will always roll back to the previous "/usr/lib/firefox/firefox %u" for some reason.
Parker Davis
Why is there a difference between file manager programs and file pickers? It's basically the same thing, with an [Open] box somewhere
Owen Price
xfce, arc-dark
James Gomez
you would think
but most these programs use various underlying widgets like lists or trees or gridlists
and gnome devs are notoriously opposed to or reluctant to including but not limited to:
>thinking ahead
>admitting their mistakes
>going back on design decisions
>implementing multiple designs and giving the user a configuration choice to pick between them
Jack Adams
also something about the file manager being a standalone that might use the gtk library
while the filepicker for some god forsaken reason is some poorly maintained part of the gtk library
Luis Murphy
>specifically because it still has the GTK2 file picker.
this, literally this. only reason i'm using palememe, being able to build with gtk+2 and the really low memory usage.
Owen Howard
This is not a thread for showcasing your anime collection, calm down manchilds.

Copy firefox.desktop from /usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications and change the line
Exec=firefox %u
to
Exec=GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 firefox %u
You probably don't have the rights to edit the file in /usr/share
Ryan Turner
Fug yeah, it works now. Thank you very much, good user!
Jace Perez
>ditched bugzilla for gitlabs garbage tracker

lmao

Copying the file to ~/.local/share also prevents your changes from being overwritten by system updates.

as you can see, i recently started saving stuff, i should probably browse /b/ for some frog pictures

you will not find anything but wwyd, cuck, share, tribute, gfur, and other nudes-threads on /b/ ever since like 2014 or 2015

oh you're actually right, that's sad. Jow Forums seems to have some wojaks and chad memes tho, i'll quickly steal them

PCManFM is pretty good, it light and gets the job done, i think it doesn't have tab support so spaceFM could be better if you want tabs
Carter Rivera
>i think it doesn't have tab support
It does. Just middle click.
Cooper Parker
I zoomed it in so you could see the thumbnails easily just as figured out. I usually disable thumbnails and keep the smallest icon size.
Levi Walker
holy fuck i'm retarded. i shouldn't use computers

what if I decide I want to use them as my GRUB background, huh? why you Jow Forumstards gotta be so short sighted?
