Hi all,
it seems like Thunderbird and Firefox use GTK dialogs for opening and saving files by default. To make them use native KDE dialogs the environment variable GTK_USE_PORTAL must be set to 1. One way to do that is to edit the .desktop files for the applications [1].
Alternatively, the line
export GTK_USE_PORTAL=1
can be added in ~/.profile or even globally under /etc/profile.d/.
Would it make sense to add the global export in a package (e.g., a branding package)? This should make Firefox and Thunderbird use the KDE file dialogs by default for most users. Or would that have any unwanted side effects?
I have some stupid questions about GTK_USE_PORTAL: When I check the Firefox code GTK_USE_PORTAL is already activated for Firefox when running in wayland mode.
For your interest: Leap 15.2 Firefox 78.0.1esr KDE Plasma 5.18 GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 is set ===> Firefox still does NOT use KDE/Qt file picker, but the GTK one.... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
