Version: 4.4 (using KDE 4.4.4) OS: Linux Filter in file save/open dialog is useless, and unusable to novice/new users who do not know about wild-cards ['*','?'] as: 1. it doesn't filter out the folders, and 2. the user has to manually type *xt*, then press enter to find a file text.txt, text.csv, text.odf etc.. (this slows down and doesn't really make the user productive) 3. user can't filter out a folder 4. user can't 'switch-off' 'switch-on' 'showing folders' when there are many folders, finding files is very difficult. Reproducible: Didn't try Expected Results: Just like Dolphin's Filter bar, All KDE file save/open dialogs should have same behavior. Entry in the Bar = expected behavior: ------------------------------------- [no entry] = * [all files and folders] *.txt = *.txt [folders and *.txt files] txt = only files/folder containing txt in it, == *txt* It would be nice to have "dolphin filemanager kpart" in file open/save dialog. thanks. OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.34-ARCH Compiler: gcc
