File name is not highlighted after you click show in directory

[Greg S]

I am using Shotwell 0.15 in Elementary OS

When I click on an image in the gallery view and press show file in directory the directory pops up but the file isnt highlighted.

Similarly, when i go to import from SD card the same thing happens, the files that i want to import do not get highlighted when i click on them

There used to be a bug in Nautilus that that prevented Shotwell from doing this, but it was fixed. See http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/2129 and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=632427 I tested and this does work with Nautilus on Ubuntu.

I suspect the issue is with the elementary Files application have different command-line requirements than Nautilus.

Indeed it works fine with nautilus in an Unity session

Also if pantheon-files is launched from the command line with a uri that is not a folder, it nevertheless opens an apparently empty folder with that name. This should be fixed.
