205606 - save all attachments - create new directory enters directory

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(MailNews Core :: Attachments, defect)

Description

[Bob Lockie]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030513
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030513

When "Save All" is selected in the attachment pane of a message and a new folder
is created, the new folder is CDed to and the user must go to the parent folder
to select it.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select "Save All" in the attachment pane of a message.
2. Select the "create new directory" button of the file dialog that opens.

Actual Results:  
The new directory is made the current directory and the parent directory must be
navigated to since the file dialog needs a directory name.

Expected Results:  
The new directory should not be made the current directory but the "Directory
name" should be populated with the new directory name.

See bug #37113 "Need better UI for "Save all attachments""
This would be no problem, if the directory we are in would be selected and we
wouldn't have to select the dir we want to save in (and thus first have to leave
it).

I don't see that.

The save dialog seems to have changed a lot since I can't really reproduce on TB3.0b2. I was using OpenSuse 11.

Considering closing as INVALID.

RESO INVALID -> this is the GTK+ file save dialog, AIR.
