Is it only me that *totally hates* the new methods being used for file navigation in KDE apps?
The one that presents you with choices of:
Home Desktop Filesystem
and then makes you click all over the place to try and figure out where you're at and where the stuff you're looking for is??
I find it totally unintuitive, hardly user friendly, requires much more time to navigate, and in general is ugly.
Hmm. I have the opposite reaction. In fact I just today nicked a little further into the Wall o' Windows by mentioning the flexibility of the KDE open dialog. Take this image: http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/laptop_desktop5.jpg It shows a KDE dialog. I have the regular stuff. In addition, I can add my own favorites, as I did here with "My Projects." You can't do that in Windows. My co-workers were amazed that KDE (Linux) could do this. http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/ScreenShot175.jpg By comparison, the Windows open dialog is a bit more limited. I can perform many of the same functions, but the ability to customize is gone. HTH! -- kai www.perfectreign.com linux - genuine windows replacement part
