Bug ID: 400280
Summary: Preview files in Dolphin file lists: Directories
defaults to enable "Show preview of files and folders"
Product: dolphin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: view-engine: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: kiwim...@runbox.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
After updating to Kubuntu 18.10 and Plasma 5.14, I found that all directories
had "Show preview of files and folders" (aka. Preview) enabled when using
"Remember properties for each folder" in Dolphin Preferences.
If I set it to "Use common properties for all folders" it works, as in all
folders view the same way.
The "old" way of fixing view mode was setting "Use common properties for all
folders" > then setting the view mode you wanted (e.g. Details and disable
Preview, in my case).
This does not work for me now. When I enable "Remember properties for each
folder", it defaults to Details and Enabled Preview, even if I tried the "old"
way of setting common defaults.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set "Use common properties for all folders"
2. Set preferred view modes (e.g. Details and disable Preview)
3. Set "Remember properties for each folder"
4. Try navigating to a sub-dir of current.
OBSERVED RESULT
Directories does not respect the set preferred view modes.
EXPECTED RESULT
All directories should inherit the view modes set during "Use common properties
for all folders".
SOFTWARE VERSIONS
Operating System: Kubuntu 18.10
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.2
Qt Version: 5.11.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51.0
Kernel Version: 4.19.0-041900-generic
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My install is currenlty a dist-upgrade from Kubuntu 18.04 to 18.10. I'm also
using Kubuntu backports for latest Plasma. This issue might be resulting from
the dist-upgrade.
Prior to upgrading, my views were working as intended (i.e. Details, with
disabled Preview in all directories, except those I actively enabled Preview
and/or changed view mode).
