Hi,

when using Drag and Drop, nautilus switches from GIO/GVFS URI to local
path, depending on the drop target (i.e. it will paste a local path if
you drop to a gnome-terminal). I guess dropping on a gtk filechooser
assumes that the application is using GIO. It may need some special
casing for this case. On one hand, if an application is gtk-based it
really should use gio, on the other hand  I think at least firefox and
openoffice use gtk file chooser and won't use it.

For GIO-based applications, using the GIO URI is much better, but as
far as I remember, several applications transform local paths into GIO
URIs, so providing a local path should always work.
Dragging files from nautilus and dropping on the file open dialog in OOo
works for me. Ubuntu's OOo doesn't use URIs due to prior bugs and I
converted it to using the local path (gvfs-fuse) which appears to work
more reliably.

Well, yes, OOo can handle the URI GVFS through the package "openoffice.org-gnome". But of course, the system must have the package, as one of the main programs of the distributionn, to support URI. I refer to any application, not only for GNOME apps, that any user may need (the aforementioned Meld, Code:: Blocks, poEdit, and a long etc). These applications do not recognize URI with drag and drop, says can not open the file (the drag n drop not is the main problem, is only an example).

To which I go is, what is the power of abstraction GVFS / FUSE if you do not actually use? Is there any advantage to using URI instead of the local address (for certainly I saw it more problems than anything else, so I opened the thread)? Is it feasible to stop using the URI to improve compatibility (speaking on development concepts)? Do you really believe it would do more usable and convenient to the system?

Regards!

Bueno, es cierto, OOo puede manejar las URI GVFS gracias al paquete "openoffice.org-gnome". Pero claro, lo debe tener, al ser un programa básico de la distribución, el soporte para URI. Yo me refiero a cualquier aplicación, no solo las de GNOME, que cualquier usuario puede llegar a necesitar (el mencionado Meld, Code::Blocks, Poedit, y un largo etc). Estas aplicaciones a mi no me reconocen URI mediante arrastrar y soltar, dice que no se puede abrir el fichero (esto por poner un ejemplo).

A lo que voy es, ¿de qué sirve el poder de abstracción de GVFS/FUSE si realmente no se utiliza? ¿hay alguna ventaja en usar URI en lugar de la dirección local (porque ciertamente le vi mas problemas que otra cosa, por eso abrí el hilo)? ¿es factible dejar de usar las URI para mejorar la compatibilidad (hablando en conceptos de desarrollo)? ¿realmente creen ustedes que lo haría mas usable y cómodo al sistema?

Un Saludo!
