Template files

Just found yet another thing that doesn't work in Ubuntu 14.04, but worked
perfectly well with Ubuntu 12.04:

1. Create a folder somewhere, for instance ~/Templates
2. Copy some different files to that folder, such as an empty spreadsheet
and more.
3. Make sure the following line exists in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs:
XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/Templates/"
4. I suppose you are then supposed to logout and log back in again.
5. Open Nautilus.
6. Right click inside a folder that you are allowed to use, then click
”Create a new document”.
7. In my case, only ”Empty document” is available. In Ubuntu 12.04 all my
files in ~/Templates were present.

Is anyone else having this problem?


Best regards
