Load vector layer in Processing: wrong filter (on GNOME)

Original Redmine Issue: 16981
Affected QGIS version: master
Redmine category:processing/gui
Assignee: Victor Olaya

---

Loading a layer from the filesystem in a Processing module does not filter layer types; this is confusing, only vector extensions should be shown.

I can't reproduce on gnome - is this still an issue on master?

Still true as per 5522f10
I can test a newer master in a few days if necessary.

I have a feeling there was a lack of clarity on in this report :)

I can reproduce this with algorithms with a map (i.e. vector and raster) layer parameter (for e.g. extract layer extent).

You are right, sorry.
Thanks for checking.

Paolo, no worries, it's now fixed.

Issues are better served with a bullet point "steps to reproduce" list, try that next time ;-) thanks for reporting this.

---

• status_id was changed from Feedback to Closed
• resolution was changed from to fixed/implemented

Of course, I know. Unfortunately sometime time is really impossible to find, and I feel it is better not to forget an issue - clarifications can be provided also later.
Anyway, thanks for the fix!
