Bug ID: 514070
Summary: Dolphin spontaneously enables “Show in Groups” during
folder navigation
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version First 25.12.0
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

SUMMARY
While navigating between folders in Dolphin, the “Show in Groups” option may
become enabled without the user explicitly toggling it and without entering a
folder that previously had grouping enabled. The grouping state appears to
change spontaneously during normal navigation, such as clicking through
directories or using the Back button.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin.
2. Ensure “Remember view properties for each folder” is enabled.
3. Navigate through multiple directories (e.g. Home → subfolders → parent
folders) using single-click navigation or the Back button.
4. During continued navigation, observe that the “Show in Groups” option
becomes enabled without any explicit user action.
OBSERVED RESULT
The current folder displays items grouped by type, and the “Show in Groups”
option is enabled, despite the user not enabling it.
EXPECTED RESULT
The “Show in Groups” option should remain disabled unless explicitly enabled by
the user. Normal folder navigation should not change grouping state.
