custom dialog going down every time it appears

[carlogray]

Binary package hint: nautilus

To make easy to reproduce this error, just open the Firefox and click in some file to make download, it will open the "Save as" Nautilus dialog box. Observe the window position, than close that dialog box and click again on the link (file download) so it opens the "Save as" dialog box, and you'll see that this opens a little down. Make this for more times and you'll see that the dialog box, will going down until it touches the Gnome bar.

I realized this error at my e-mail, where I have lot of things to download "Save as" or "Open". And the Nautilus "Save as" windows are going down and down.

If I understand you correctly, the dialog you're referring to is the gtk file chooser dialog, which isn't part of Nautilus. Re-assigning to gtk.

thanks for the correction.

what ubuntu version do you use?

[carlogray (carlogray)]

I'm using 8.10.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the issue should be fixed in jaunty, closing the bug for now but feel free to reopen if you still get the issue after upgrading

[carlogray (carlogray)]

let it open until someone how have installed the 9.04 make the test. Probably this issue is in the new relese because nobody had opened this defect of usability. And usability is one of the Canonical's effort.

[Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson)]

Sebastien said this should be fixed in Jaunty though (and I've tested it in Jaunty and can't recreate the problem). "In Progress" means that somebody is working on fixing the bug, which is clearly not the case here, so I'm not sure why you set it to that status.

I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and the problem persist

Looking at the attachments in this bug report, I noticed that one was flagged as a patch incorrectly. A patch contains changes to an Ubuntu package that will resolve a bug, since this was not one I've unchecked the patch flag for it. In the future keep in mind the definition of a patch. You can learn more about what qualifies as a patch at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Patches. Thanks!

There's no such dialog in gtk+, isn't this more like a firefox issue? the gtkfilechooser is called after you mark Save File and Ok.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the dialog is not a GTK one but a firefox specific dialog

[Micah Gersten (micahg)]

A lot of problems are caused by third party addons. Could you please try with a new Firefox profile? You do not need to delete your old profile to test.
