Version: (using KDE 4.0.83) Installed from: Unlisted Binary Package OS: Linux To reproduce, just go to some folder (having show hidden files off), and rename a file or folder there to have a '.' in the beginning. The file/folder should disappear (as it is now a hidden file/folder, so should not be shown), but the display isn't automatically updated, you have to press F5 for it to disappear.
I can confirm this bug in my KDE 4.1.3 Dolphin.
