Description
Not sure if this is the proper place to report this...
See tickets:
http://svn.netlabs.org/qtapps/ticket/27
http://svn.netlabs.org/qtapps/ticket/28
I remember the same thing as in http://svn.netlabs.org/qtapps/ticket/28 happened with some earlier versions of smplayer, although in smplayer it has been fixed.

I have forwarded your comment on ticket 27 to the developer. Re. ticket 28, I attached a screenshot.
comment:3 by , 13 years ago
Hmm, in your screenshot the "Look in" combo box does not contain a drive letter. Here it does. Could you please check, if the directories:
\APPS
\APPS\QMETRO
\APPS\QMETRO\BIN
\APPS\QMETRO\BIN\map
have extended attributes ? You can do that by running "dir <dir_name>" from a command line and see if the "." entry has a nonzero EA size.

\APPS has extended attribs
The others have not.
What is the consequence of this?

Replying to guzzi:
\APPS has extended attribs The others have not. What is the consequence of this?
I'm asking beacuse LIBC stores permission information in EAs and we have seen a situation, where a directory with invalid permissions caused strange behavior. But the attribs you mention are created by the WPS, not LIBC.

It maybe worth a try to remove the file %HOME%\.config\Trolltech.ini. Besides the list of plugins it also stores global settings for the file dialog. Maybe something got messed up there...
comment:9 by , 13 years ago
Removing trolltech.ini didn't make a difference. I tested some more qt apps. Qeven and focuswriter show the same behaviour, while smplayer does display the driveletter in the file open dialog.
I noticed that with focuswriter the whole f:\home\default path showed for a fraction of a second, then got replaced by just home\default......

Hmm, could that be caused by the libc pathrewriter ? I don't have it installed here...
comment:11 by , 13 years ago
I do have it installed. Will uninstall and see if it makes a difference. What exactly is it used for and what might be the consequences of removing it for various software?

what libc version do you have installed? only libc064 or libc064 and the libc063.dll from the libc063 package?

it seems the reporter lost interest, as since 7 month no feedback. so closing it.
What do you mean with "doesn't always work" ?
The second part of http://svn.netlabs.org/qtapps/ticket/27 is definitively a bug in the application code (file: paternEditor.cpp, lines: 49..52) and http://svn.netlabs.org/qtapps/ticket/28 is not reproducable here.
