Screenshot of File -> Create New
SUMMARY
In Dolphin, the "Create New" function is completely broken. Instead of the
choices it used to give (create new text file, new directory, etc), it now
shows all the files and directories in my Home Directory in a scrollable list
that fills my screen from top to bottom! This happens with both the "File" Menu
"Create New" and in Right Clicking and hovering over "Create New" anywhere in
the portion of the Dolphin window that shows all the files.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In Dolphin, select "File -> Create New" or right click in the file listing
area and hover the mouse over "Create New"
OBSERVED RESULT
All the files and directories in the user's home directory are shown in a list
that goes from the top to the bottom of my screen. Screenshot attached.
EXPECTED RESULT
I should be given the choice to create a new text file, directory, etc.
