Created attachment 486659 [details] proposed patch for evolution; This may help, on the first look. Could you give it a try with a test package [1], please? The intention of that button is to give you a popup menu of application which can process the "too long" part. This popup menu is shown when you left or right-click on the "Open with" button. [1] https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=3190860 When I left or right-click on the "Open with" button popup menu is shown with two options - "Save As..." and "Open in gedit..." Not sure what should be the right behavior but I would suspect that the left click opens gedit, right click opens popup menu. Also the button doesn't have any feedback on click/release as the rest of the buttons. Tested in evolution-2.28.3-22.1.el6. (In reply to comment #3) > When I left or right-click on the "Open with" button popup menu is shown with > two options - "Save As..." and "Open in gedit..." Original developers meant to do that this way. Probably for cases where is no application associated for the mime type, or there is more than one. I do not know for sure. > Also the button doesn't have any feedback on click/release as the rest of the > buttons. What kind of feedback do you mean? (In reply to comment #4) > (In reply to comment #3) > > Also the button doesn't have any feedback on click/release as the rest of the > > buttons. > > What kind of feedback do you mean? I mean the standard way how ui buttons acts on click event. The button change its look when you click on it to let you know that you "pushed" the button and then changes back on mouse button release. "Open with" button doesn't change on click event, it remains still. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an exception in the current release, please ask your support representative. Still valid, with 2.32.3. I replaced the "Open With" button with standard attachment button, which has disabled inline viewwing, thus user can at least save the attachment to a disk. The old "Open With" button didn't do anything even in 3.4.0 release.
