Nautilus 3.6 is inane
I haven’t posted here for a while. Usually because my google searches turn up the answers pretty quickly, so I don’t feel the need to add anything additional via this blog.
Nautilus 3.6 on 13.04 is inane! They have gotten rid of drop down menus as far as I can tell.
While trying to figure out how to connect to a file share via the file explorer – a completely reasonable and supposedly simple task – I discovered that it was no longer easily possible on the 13.04 file explorer. I lot of hunting and I finally discovered a post that gave me the magic keyboard combination in order to open a file location dialog: CTRL-L.
Once I had this is was relatively easily to connect to the remote server I wanted. After that right-click add bookmark is your friend.
It’s really stupid when the backend can still do things, but the power of the front end is reduced.
Edit: Sigh… It is worse that I thought. Dropping tree view is a particularly egregious crime.
