Description Leticia Hernández 2008-06-17 12:01:46 UTC 
Version:           4.00.82 (KDE 4.0.82 >= 20080610) (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 
OS:                Linux

Right now there is no way to filter files without an extension or a common name pattern, or at least I haven't found it. I have some plain text files on a temporary folder that I would like to show on a folderview but renaming them to *.txt is quite a pain. It would be awesome to be able to add a filter based on mime type, though I'm not a developer so there may be a better solution that I just can't imagine :)

Yes, at the moment is only possible to set filters which are compared to filenames. Filtering by mimetypes is a good thing IMHO.
Comment 2 Supreme1012 2008-06-27 22:06:30 UTC 
This, plus much more, might be possible once akonadi gets implemented
Comment 3 jpo 2008-06-27 22:26:35 UTC 
Re #2: schouldn't this be Nepomuk instead of akonadi?
