SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click to open a file
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
On the file picker, besides the zoom control, there's a option button. If you click on the first option, "detailed view", if the visualization side panel (F11) is enabled it is automatically hidden. You have to click to unable it to enable it again.
Happens every time.

EXPECTED RESULT
I discovered it while I was investigating the settings.
Seems like it's not uncommon for Linux programas do have this problem. For example, a program to hand imagens. When you want to open some image from it the file picker doesn't automatically filters for file extension, prioritizing the images on the folder.
KWrite has this problem, the file picker has no option to filer for file types. Why doesn't it automatically filters text files? Can this be changed?

I confirm, if you enable "Allow expansion is Details View", the preview panel is automatically hidden even if its option is still marked as enabled in settings.
