Bug ID: 433737
Summary: File-open dialogs do not follow per-folder sorting
options set by Dolphin
Product: frameworks-kio
Version: 5.79.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Open/save dialogs
Assignee: kio-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: nyanpas...@tuta.io
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If I tell Dolphin to sort a single folder by a different option (creating a
.directory file), the file-open dialog still uses global sort options.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin Preferences. In the General pane, Behavior tab, select "View:
Remember display style for each folder". (If this step is omitted, the expected
result is different but observed is unchanged.)
2. Open a folder in Dolphin. Click the sorting header (which changes the
per-folder sort options, saving it in the .directory file)
3. In a KDE app, open an Open dialog and navigate to the same folder.
OBSERVED RESULT
The sorting option persists across folders, and is remembered when you close
the dialog and open a new one in the same or different folder. It is not tied
to either the global or per-folder sorting options set by Dolphin.
EXPECTED RESULT
The file-open dialog respects per-folder (and global) sorting options set in
Dolphin. If per-folder sorting is enabled, changing the dialog's sort options
in a folder creates a .directory file, which also changes the sorting in
Dolphin (as well as file dialogs). If per-folder sorting is disabled, changing
the dialog's sort options may reconfigure Dolphin's sort options as well
(unsure if that's a good idea).
