Hello,
I finally have FC4 installed and running but I have come across one
major headache. It may be gnome related so I will have to check the
gnome site as I hope for an answer.
I go to open a file or change a setting but I don't have the ability
to type in the file location and only access to point and click.
In some cases, I have ".name" directories setup and I need to get
access to them but I don't have the ability and I don't want the
default installation to display them.
Also, for many tasks, typing in the location is much quicker that
point and click through a whole list of displays.
How can I configure the file load/save dialogs to allow me to type
in the paths/file names. This is presently affecting my usage of
FC4 as I cannot access the files I need to.
Try pressing Ctrl-L when you get the file selection dialog.
Paul.
Thank you.
I just found that out deep in the gnome site. Of course I wasn't
looking for "Location Bar". Now to find out how to get the location
bar to be on the window at all times. Now where are those files?
I am glad I went to FC4 at work before doing it at home. My wife
would have killed me. At least I will have some experience.
You can also open up the nautilus window then go to -- edit -->
Preferences --> (select the behavior tab) and check always open in
browser window.
ctl-L evry time is another option.
Jim
Tried the suggestion but it didn't change anything. The ctrl+L works well.
