[Bug 885592] Re: No "parent folder" button

 

Clicking breadcrumbs is a poor workaround for such an often used
activity. First, most of time the parent breadcrumb is hidden, so you
first need to click the reveal button before the parent button even
shows up. This essentially doubles the number of clicks to navigate to
the parent. Furthermore, the parent breadcrumb moves around, and isn't
always in the same location. This also slows down up-navigation. Lack of
a true parent-button is a huge step backwards in productivity.

Title:
  No "parent folder" button

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After update to oneiric, I don't see any easy way (read: toolbar
  button) to navigate to the parent folder. There is a menu entry, and
  there are keyboard shortcuts, but neither gives an easy way to quickly
  navigate up in the directory tree with the mouse (in particular if you
  want to go up two or three levels).
