Description of problem: Mageia don't use Gnome template Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): task-gnome-minimal-3.24.2-1.mga6.noarch.rpm task-gnome-3.24.2-1.mga6.noarch.rpm How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.Right click on a folder 2.You see context menu The menu doesn't show any option to create a new document. Only the new folder option is enable. How fix to it: Save a document template in /home/user/Modèles (Fr path) It could be a good idea to give with Gnome some empty template like: .txt .odt .ods .odp You could find the Gnome doc here: https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/files-templates.html.en For a newbie like me, it was not easy to find. By the way, Nautilus haven't too features, so desactivated a few is a luxury =)

They think it is up to the Linux distributions to decide to add them (or not), see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/811 I'm not sure it would be good for us to add templates by default, because * it is a lot of extra work to do that well, including having translated template names for every language * it is easily forgotten to update a template or add a language, when needed * most users will want their own, custom templates A separate templates package would be better, if someone maintains it, but I could only find Nautilus Templates https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1115335/ which is unmaintained and incomplete. Besides, in the two years since it was opened, no one commented in this report and Mageia 6 is no longer maintained. So closing this report as OLD. If you still want this feature in a maintained Mageia version, Bob Bob, then reopen this report and please change "Version:" in the upper left from "6" to "Cauldron" Marja
