Bug Description

Every time I open Files, with more than one tab already opened (to have that you have to open more different tabs and then close Files without closing the tabs, next time you'll open Files you have those tabs already opened), the tab's paths are wrong, in fact every tab will show the path of the tab I was into before to close Files, which one is therefore the only one to have the right path. Only by refreshing (e.g. tapping f5) in every tab, or surfing back and forth among the them, I get their exact path

Hello Roberto

I could reproduce this - what are the tabs showing before you refresh?

Okay I have more detailed and corrected infos, so I'll update the description, so I answer you updating the description

Just a curiosity... If you reproduced the bug why are you asking it to me since you already seen it? XD

Sorry - there was a typo - I meant to say I could not reproduce it.

Its very strange that it is the tab on the right whose name is repeated across the tabs. As this tab is the last to be opened on starting its name is not known when the first tabs are opened. Does this happen to you whichever folders you are reloading at start and whichever view is used (Icon, List or Column)? Does it depend on how many tabs are being reopened?

Please confirm which revision of Files you are using (the package manager will tell you). e.g. 0.1.5.1+r1814+pkg37~daily~ubuntu0.3.1

I have to do a further clarification (sorry), so I'll update the description again, it's not the last tab to the right whose name is repeated across the tabs, but it's the tab I was into before to close Files, i.e. the one that will be "shown" once I start up Files again.

1.Yes, it happens wichever folders I'm reloading at the start and wichever view I use too

2.No, it doesn't seem to depend on how many tabs are opened

3.My version is: 0.1.5.1+r1806+pkg37~daily~ubuntu0.3.1

I guess it could help reporting a further info:

not only the path is affected but it happens also this (it's not an important bug since that I don't feel the need to do it but it may help to track the problem):

if I zoom in or out the view (for example with CTRL + or CTRL -) in the last folder where I am before to close Files, at the next time I open of Files, I won't have just that "wrong path" problem with which every tab has the same path of the tab I was in, but I have that each tab will have the exact level of zoom of that one too!

I hope that I've been clear...

I'm sorry Jeremy why were you about to let this bug expire? It was about to expire in some days because you put it as "incomplete", I changed it as "new" then!

Sorry I lost sight of this one. I can now confirm this - I misunderstood previously - I thought it was the names on the tabs that were incorrect but it is the path shown in the pathbar, which does not update for the first few tab changes.
