Bug ID: 508952
Summary: Dolphin not showing option to copy/move/link files and
folders directly to the desktop
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version First 25.08.0
Reported In:
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
Reporter: superslothsworld2 at gmail.com
CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Attempting to drag files and folders to the desktop doesn't show the option to
move/copy/link when dragging them directly to the desktop. This does work for
folders directly in dolphin, but not for the desktop itself. You can also hold
"shift" while over the desktop to forcefully move it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open dolphin
2. Find a file or folder you would like to move to the desktop
3. Drag it away from dolphin and drop it onto the desktop
OBSERVED RESULT
The file/folder has a "+" sign next to it, but dropping it does nothing.
EXPECTED RESULT
Dropping it should have given an option to move, copy, and link (among a few
other options) to the desktop.
