[maemo-developers] HildonFileChooserDialog // Showing File Extensions

[From: Benoît HERVIER]

Hum ...

I'm the author of PyGTKEditor, since fremantle, we can't use anymore
gtk.FileChooserDialog due to the theme with his enormous "Open"
button, letting us choose only 3th or 4th characters of a file.

But as an source code editor, i want to open one file of my project in
which contain the following files :

- pygtkeditor.py
- pygtkeditor.pyo
- pygtkeditor.service
- pygtkeditor.desktop

But there is no differences visible between this file in the
hildon.FileChooserDialog ... extension here is really needed ...

- pygtkeditor
- pygtkeditor
- pygtkeditor
- pygtkeditor

But it s seems you assume seeing extension isn't for end user ? But
here it s difficult without ...
same thing for image editor ... how does i select the png  version of
an image which exist also in jpg ... random choose ...

And no ... this things is in won't FIX ... .... this sucks ! As now in
fremantle we couldn't use anymore gtk.FileChooserDialog ...

Still no idea ?

/me like less and less fremantle and this "dumb user" orientation ...
