Updated PNG file disappears from Nemo when edited while still opened in Xviewer #2628
Comments
Tested with Drawing (included in Mint 20.x) and re-tested with GIMP ! |
@SebastJava what is different between this ticket and #2623 and #2621 ? |
Nemo 4.8.4 I'm not able to reproduce this issue. I'm editing a PNG file via Pix with Nemo open. Every change I make to the PNG file, I see it updated and reflected in the open Nemo window. |
I can reproduce this (with a JPEG file in pix). |
I'm going to close this ticket since since it's a duplicate of #2623 |
My answer is in the introduction on top of this current page: Also, it just adds more information, and thus, possibly, more clues, and a larger view. And the amount of similar issues shows there are many situations where this bothering and frightening file disappearance can occur. Anyway, the links to all these similar issues are still there in #2623 and #2621... |
In all of these examples you appear to be creating, deleting and re-creating the same filename in a sub-folder of a single nemo view. |

Please take note that it took me a lot of time just to remember and replay all or some of my little nightmares i had during 2020 but never had time to report until now. I am sure you will have a lot of fun too! Bonus: i guess if you succeed in solving one of these issues, all of them will be solved, since they are all similar. Remember, there are #2623, #2628, #2621, and #1922. They are all similar, but not the same! I dropped TONS of information here. Enjoy! :) |
SOLVED! |
Similar to #2623, #2621, #1922
This is part of a group of similar issues. Same disturbing results, but various different ways to get stuck... Here i am trying to make it very far from an edge case, and show this issue occurs with very regular, newbie, simple common stuff... I am just modifying a simple PNG image, using popular software such as the simple Drawing or the complex GIMP, and... boom! My image disappeared!
Steps to reproduce
NOTES:
OPERATIONS:
Of course, closing and re-opening this ~/test-XX directory solves this little bug, but it can get quite disturbing as it happens all the time in those generic, casual, simple daily life stuff...
Expected behaviour
I would expect to see a custom thumbnail showing a small preview of my image. Or at least some generic icon. Or at least something, so i don’t panic and think my file is lost!
