Description SkyWalteron 2025-05-26 05:28:11 UTC 
I wrote this [Can I change dolphin name style?](https://discuss.kde.org/t/can-i-change-to-dolphin-name-view-of-start-end-to-start-center-style/34762).

And I read this report and merge request.

[merge request this](https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/880)

So I really want option of Dolphin to have option is file name style to Left to no cut or Left to Middle.
Can some developer of add option to style change to Lnc or LM?

Some other people think to no need that. But some people think to need this.
Some people again and again many time said "Really want this!".
Some people said again and again "No! That are no help". Some people said.. Endless. 
I think stop battle method is merge option to file name style "LE or LM"...

example:
```
Directory-category-theme-Date-name.jpeg
A-ArtPicture-cat-0526-sleep.jpeg
```

Dolphin view Details with use split style. Same old verdion.
```
1.Before
Directory-category-them...
A-ArtPicture-cat-05...
```
Yes, I understand this file category is ArtPicture, And theme is cat, And this file date is month 05, So this file in Directory A.
I think important 1st info is category, theme, date. I need 2nd info is directory.
I think not important 3rd info is name of "sleep". I no need info extension of jpeg.

```
2.After,Dolphin version 25.04.1.
Directory-...te-name.jpeg
A-Ar...eep.jpeg
```
I no understand this file what category and what theme and what date? I confused.
So I want change name view style to 1. How I change this?
I think difficult read is this file name style. Please help?

Option for this for this was already suggested and would be easy to implement:

Toggling on or off what was removed in:

I have an issue as a development https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/issues/74 to detail the junior job aspect.
That should be a good area for a new contributor.
