Description Dotan Cohen 2008-12-08 12:22:29 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Dolphin very nicely remembers which files were selected when the user switches between Icon and other views. Dolphin should also remember which files were selected when showing / hiding hidden folders.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Enable Show Hidden Files button
2) Select multiple folders.
3) Click Show Hidden Files button
4) ???
5) Profit!

I expected to see the selected files remain selected, but they were not.

Problem still exists with KDE 4.5.1

IMHO it's a bug, not a missing feature?
Comment 2 Peter Penz 2010-09-05 20:20:34 UTC
I agree, this is a bug.

Keeps the selection after showing/hiding hidden files.

Still only files that are shown will be selected, thus selecting hidden files and then hiding hidden files will deselect those.
