Description Fernando M. Muniz 2024-12-11 00:04:11 UTC
The Inline "Create New File/Folder" should ignore every "//////" a folder's name starts with, then read the actual text after it (if exists).
Currently anything that starts with "/" is simply not created, which could become frustrating with the Inline version.

That's not what I see. Can you attach a screen recording that demonstrates what you're seeing?

It's safe to assume it's fixed in Plasma 6.3.
