Re: Default view in Nautilus is not what I want

Danke Hendrik,

I already had an answer on that by Dennis Cranston and I forgot to tell the list, plus I filled a bug report that was said to be a duplicate. Double mistake. Sorry.

Any way, I managed to get by, without uninstalling gthumb. I just modified a file in order to the view to be corrupted (well, at least that's what I think since it never appeared again even on folders it should with what I thought I had done !)

I modified /usr/lib/bonobo/servers/GNOME_GThumb_CatalogView.server in order to
introduce limitations to x-directory/* as follows :


        <oaf_attribute name="bonobo:supported_mime_types" type="stringv">
                <item value="x-directory/*"/>
        </oaf_attribute>
        <!--modification suite à bug vue catalogue-->
        <oaf_attribute name="nautilus:required_directory_content_mime_types" type="stringv">
                <item value="audio/mpeg"/>
                <item value="audio/x-mp3"/>
                <item value="audio/mp3"/>
                <item value="audio/x-id3"/>
                <item value="application/x-id3"/>
                <item value="audio/x-wav"/>
                <item value="audio/x-mod"/>
                <item value="audio/x-s3m"/>
                <item value="audio/x-xm"/>
                <item value="audio/x-it"/>
                <item value="audio/x-flac"/>
                <item value="application/x-flac"/>
                <item value="application/x-ogg"/>
                <item value="application/ogg"/>
        </oaf_attribute>
        <!--fin modif-->
        <oaf_attribute name="nautilus:view_as_name" type="string"
                       value="Catalog"/>

I guess what I've done is stupid but it does just what I want. So be it !

François
