OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

It would be nice if the filesystem tab would have a quickfilter bar with filter-as-you-type capability, just like KDevelop3 had.
Comment 1 Andreas Pakulat 2009-01-03 21:50:36 UTC 
re-assigning to kdirlister as it IMHO makes sense to have it in the general component.
Comment 2 Andreas Pakulat 2009-01-03 21:51:27 UTC 
hmm, why is kfile not in kdelibs. Moving to the right component.
Comment 3 Dario Andres 2009-05-08 17:01:27 UTC 
"filesystem tab" .. where? Thanks
Comment 4 Thomas McGuire 2009-05-08 17:50:15 UTC 
The bug was originally reported against KDevelop, which has a filesystem tab in the sidebar.
Comment 5 Andreas Pakulat 2009-05-08 18:13:56 UTC 
ah, sorry for not updating the description. This is related to KDirOperator, which KDevelop uses to display a filesystem browser.
Comment 6 Dominik Haumann 2009-07-07 16:57:00 UTC 
True, it's implemented e.g. in the kate app filebrowser plugin (kdesdk/kate/plugins/filesystembrowser). KDirOperator itself supports filtering, so this wish is just about making it visible in the gui.

Comment 9 charly ghislain 2011-01-15 10:41:18 UTC 
as stated in the new duplicate, this functionality in kfiledialog would be useful too.
Comment 10 Christoph Feck 2013-08-16 20:19:01 UTC 
Can you please clarify if this is about the file dialog (bug 142900) or a stand-alone KDirOperator? If the latter, I do not see how/where one would add a filter.
