Bug ID: 454586
Summary: Downloads folder no way to turn off grouping by
alphabet or date
Product: dolphin
Version: 22.04.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: atmaho...@gmail.com
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The ~/Downloads folder is unlike every other folder displayed in Dolphin
- when sorted by Name groups files into sections by alphabet (A, B, C, ... 0-9)
- when sorted by Date groupy by (Today, $weekdays, $earlier-on, $Month-Year,
$Month-Year, ...)
- when sorted by size (Small, Medium, Big, ...)
Not trying to bash this mode for those that enjoy it, but I find this mode
unintuitive and hard to find the files I'm looking for. It confuses my eyes and
my existing experience using the file manager for everything else. My googling
suggests there used to be a way to turn it off with unchecking a "Show by
group" box (e.g.
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/fa31cy/how_do_i_get_dolphin_to_treat_downloads_as_a/)
but I can't find this anywhere.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin
2. Click "Downloads"
3. Click any view mode (icons, list, details) to see the files grouped by sort
category
4. Click hamburger menu and look for a way to turn off grouping
OBSERVED RESULT
No way to turn off grouping
EXPECTED RESULT
Should be a way to turn off grouping
