Description Christian (Fuchs) 2009-04-18 17:26:08 UTC

Version:           1.2.1 (using KDE 4.2.2)
Compiler:          gcc 4.1.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

In KDE 3.5 hidden files and folders had an icon effect applied (transparency), which made it easier to separate them from non hidden files / folders. 

Would it be possible to have this effect again for dolphin / konqueror in KDE 4.*? Other filemanagers, as an example Windows Explorer, do this as well.

In KDE 3 it wasn't transparency but rather a very high gamma effect was added to the icons. It was very effective and I miss it in KDE 4.

Comment 2 Christian (Fuchs) 2011-12-09 20:18:15 UTC

Solved in new dolphin, KDE 4.8. 

Thanks a lot :)

Ah, one bug less. It took me only 2 1/2 years to get this fixed ;-) Thanks for your patience!
