SUMMARY
After updating yesterday, Dolphin started using icon view, though before I had selected detailed view by default. I went into burger menu More -> View -> Adjust view display style and tried setting the settings I need for "All folders" and checked "Use as default view settings", but it did literally nothing, it chanced the view in folder I was in and all other folders still had the icon view. I have to use global view settings or downgrade.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to "Configure Dolphin" and in "View" select "Remember display style for each folder"
2. Go to More -> View -> "Adjust view display style" and select "All folders", check "Use as default view settings", in view mode select "Details" and change other settings if you want. Apply.
3. Go to other directory where custom view options were never applied.

OBSERVED RESULT
View mode in other directories wasn't changes, it's still showing in icons view. It changed view mode only in the current directory.

EXPECTED RESULT
"All folders" and "Use as default view settings" should've changed the default view mode and view mode in all folders to "Details" with other options set, but it didn't.
