The usage of the filedialog only depends on your GTK version. Firefox never used KDE filedialogs but only dialogs which were themed by Plastikfox. my GTK version ? LOL... I don't make GTK versions... I use the standard SUSE's GTK. Should I make a feature-request instead of this bug ? Let me rephrase: It depends on the GTK version of the specific distribution you use. 10.1 or upcoming 10.2 has GTK versions which let Firefox use the GTK filedialog. That's a decision by the Mozilla Foundation and personally I'm not sure if it's the right decision for non-Gnome users. You might want to complain to mozilla.com and/or read http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Mozilla_filechooser This might be a WONTFIX but I'm not the person to decide that. ok, can we provide GTK version, that uses KDE file dialogs, when running on KDE desktop? (In reply to comment #4) > ok, can we provide GTK version, that uses KDE file dialogs, when running on KDE > desktop? This request makes this bug more or less a duplicate of bug 213716. *** Bug 213885 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I have found a new solution in that regards. KGtk (Use KDE Dialogs in Gtk Apps): (23.1.2007) http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=36077 What do you think of it? I recommned to try: Enter "about:config" in the address bar, look for the "ui.allow_platform_file_picker" key and change its value to "false". Btw, would it be possible this little trick to set up in Firefox by default? I think, KDE users would be delighted :-D (In reply to comment #9 from Rastislav Krupansky) > I recommned to try: > > Enter "about:config" in the address bar, look for the > "ui.allow_platform_file_picker" key and change its value to "false". > > Btw, would it be possible this little trick to set up in Firefox by default? I > think, KDE users would be delighted :-D > Nice trick :-) but There is FF 3 file selection before http://www.abclinuxu.cz/images/screenshots/5/3/102535-store-for-snapshots-18838.png and FF 3 after http://www.abclinuxu.cz/images/screenshots/5/3/102535-store-for-snapshots-18841.png You can compare it with Krita's file selection http://www.abclinuxu.cz/images/screenshots/5/3/102535-store-for-snapshots-18844.png What is better? ;?) For KDE users the last selection is the best thing. Nobody argues against it. It's just that Firefox is an application using Gtk and Gnome libs and not Qt and KDE libs. So using the Gtk filepicker is supported upstream and "cheap" to implement while incorporating the KDE filepicker needs work from KDE team and probably causes some integration issues to be solved. I haven´t tried it yet, but what this Mozilla Qt Port? http://browser.garage.maemo.org/news/10/ Yes, Mozilla Qt is on its way once again (it was like 4 times before and never was finished before). But what is your proposal? Since years (when I hear the mozilla Qt port as an argument) I ask what to do with it? Do you expect openSUSE to ship the Qt version instead of the Gtk version or do you expect to ship both? Sorry that doesn't solve any problem as long as the distribution has Gnome and KDE as "default" desktop environments. Because SUSE has both KDE and GNOME, it will ship FFox with both GTK and Qt backends. -Technologov Created attachment 232433 [details]
FF3 Qt port's File open Dialog
As seems it doesn't resolve standardization of dialogues in the KDE :-(
