Thanks for the report, I can confirm this. But as far as I know it is not possible to get informed about a size change of a file without polling... @David: Is my assumption correct? On Thursday 17 January 2008, Peter Penz wrote:

Yes and no. It depends on the underlying method used by KDirWatch.
If KDirWatch uses polling (directly, or via FAM) then you're out of luck,
but if KDirWatch uses the linux kernel "inotify" (directly, or via FAM) then
KDirWatch gets those signals afaik. Not sure if propagates all of them though,
iirc it buffers them to prevent too many gui updates, but it should still send them.
Cc'ing dirk for confirmation.

It should work with polling and inotify, not with fam or dnotify though. do
you have famd running?

*** Bug 163784 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Any news on this ? Here using: Qt: 4.4.3 KDE: 4.1.85 (KDE 4.1.85 (KDE 4.2 Beta2)) kdelibs svn rev. 896844 / kdebase svn rev. 896844 on ArchLinux 2.6.27.8 x86_64 without FAM Selecting an txt file in Dolphin, and then reediting it and saving its content on KWrite reflect the filesize change in the statusbar, however the information panel (which is updated when I first hover in the txt file when selecting it) isn't updated. It's only updated when I "re-hover" the file Confirmed with KDE 4.5.1 I'm going to work on this one.. assigning it to myself. Updates soon. [Comment from a bug triager] Have anyone else experienced this ? I just re-check it against KDE SC 4.6 branch and it works. The statusbar information is updated (with file selected, or no selection) when files on the current directory change size... Tested with a text file on a local directory. No FAM Regards I can't reproduce it, too, either with text files or images (JPG). FAM installed (gamin-0.1.10). *** Bug 290844 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** [Part of the Dolphin Bug Weeks 2012] This is not reproducable in Dolphin 2.1 (KDE SC 4.9.2) (Kubuntu package). Judging from previous comments, it was fixed some time around KDE SC 4.6. Close it as fixed according to the recent comments. Mark, please confirm or deny the fix since you have assigned this report to yourself. (In reply to comment #13) > Close it as fixed according to the recent comments. > > Mark, please confirm or deny the fix since you have assigned this report to > yourself. Oh, was i.. Why did i do that? :p Either way, the issue is indeed gone. I just tried this on Dolphin 2.1 with Gwenview to resize an image (like the first post describes) and dolphin shows the new filesize in all places just fine. I can't say where it got fixed. |
