Summary | 0004596: Different file dialogs | ||||
Description | At least under SuSE 10.x Scribus uses two kinds of file dialogs, a Qt dialog and the KDE file dialog. This may confuse (new) users: Qt dialog: File >Open, File Save/Save As/Save As Template, Collect For Output, Import (all), Export all (except Save As Image), Edit > Colour, Paragraph Styles, Lines, Master Pages, Page > Import, Story Editor > File > Save To File, Load From File, Context Menu: Get Text, Get Image, Append Text KDE dialog: File > Export > Save As Image, Extras > Manage Pictures, Windows > Scrapbook | ||||

Patch | |||||
|
When you see a Qt like filedialog, its our custom Filedialog, which contains some extra widgets we need. In the other cases we are using the standart Qt filedialog because there is no need for extra stuff. And SuSE has patched the standart Qt filedialog to use the KDE dialogs. |
|
So this is a distro issue? |
|
Yes, SuSE is known for heavy patching Qt and KDE. |
|
Not really a distro issue imo. This issue is obvious on Windows, and probably on OSX too. The fact is that QFileDialog static functions will use system file dialogs and not qt ones. |
|
suse patches qt (and the other apps) for using kde dialogs when possible. IMHO we should not change it - I mean I won't remove "native kde" dialogs when I can use it. |
|
Resolving this with Qt4 port. |
