Description Ruben Vandamme 2008-12-29 10:55:01 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

When a hidden directory is provided as an argument to KFileDialog::getExistingDirectory it is not shown in the dialog:

KFileDialog::getExistingDirectory( "/home/user/.folder" );

The dialog seems to cut of the path until it no longer contains hidden folder and then uses that "new" path. The path in the text box is also cut. In the case of the example "/home/user" is shown.

The dialog should switch to "show hidden folders" automatically when a hidden folder is given as an argument and of course not cut the path.
