Hi,

so I have a latex file template in my template folder, however under the dialog from File->New From Template I cannot select that file

Info

GNOME 3.38.4
Wayland
Localization: German
Gummi 0.81

Works for me. Where do you place the template file?

FTR: It should go in /home/username/.config/gummi/templates and not /home/username/Templates.

maymage commented 3 years ago

Oh ...

I put it in ~/templates

Would you consider making Gummi scan this directory recursively too? It seems the right place..

Otherwise just close this issue!

I am not opposed to this idea. The current situation where we use a hidden directory that is not referenced in the window itself is not exactly the best UX. I will likely implement something like the following:

If exists ~/Templates/Gummi then scan this subfolder and list content.
If not exists ~/Templates/Gummi then scan ~/.config/gummi/templates and list content.
