You have been subscribed to a public bug:
When selecting a directory that has one sub-directory, the open dialog
descends down into the sub-directory.
1. Make this exact folder structure: ~/a-dir/b-dir/ (only one sub-directory in
a-dir, a-dir can have files)
2. Open the Open dialog and double-click on the a-dir in your Home folder and
click Open
I expect the a-dir to be selected, but b-dir is selected in stead. In
the attached video you can see the a-dir being open, but the selection
clearly uses b-dir instead.
3. Reopen the Open dialog and double-click on the a-dir
4. Type ./ in the Open dialog’s location field
The input in the edit field is automatically changed to ./a-dir/b-dir/.
The only way I have found to actually select the a-dir is to press
backspace once after completing step 4.
Similar behavior can be seen in the simplified dialog (e.g. when selecting
destination for newly opened torrent files in Transmission).
Ubuntu 12.10. Programs affected gedit, transmission, gnome-screenshot, others.
