Starting with LO 7.0, the remote open/save dialog can only show file details, and not file icons. This broke with commit b004a1bd7bf3885613d52aba70dea79766eae639 Author: Caolán McNamara on Sat Nov 23 19:14:45 2019 +0000 Resolves: tdf#128940 use a normal MenuButton This was caused by the removal of <object class="GtkIconView" id="iconview"> <property name="model">liststore2</property> - <property name="pixbuf_column">0</property> - <property name="text_column">1</property>
that certainly wasn't intentional
