Created attachment 55741 [details] Here it is CTRL + H Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.5) OS: Linux I've changed the keyboard shortcuts "Show hidden file" in Dolphin (e.g.: CTRL+H), but in the "Open file" window the shortcut remains the previous one(Alt+.). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: -Modify shortcut "Show hidden files" in dolphin -Open an Kde sc program (example kate) -Click on "Open a file": for showing the hidden file you can't use the dolphin shortcuts
Created attachment 55742 [details] Here it is ALT + .
Im ussing kubuntu 12.04 and kde 4.13.2 and i have the same problem. In dolphin i have change the shortcut of "show hidden files" to "Ctrl+h" but in kfile dialog i still have "Alt+.". the shortcut not change.
This is because they use different backends; technically speaking, Dolphin has nothing whatsoever to do with the file open/save dialogs. That said, this distinction is probably lost on most users, and it makes sense that when changed in Dolphin, the same shortcut would get used in the open/save dialogs too. Perhaps we can have it read Dolphin's config (if available) before using its own internally-defined shortcut.
The technical solution to make this a single common shortcut is to add this action to the "Standard Shortcuts" (see the module with that name in systemsettings), and then port the filedialog and dolphin to use that standard shortcut. See kconfig/src/gui/kstandardshortcut.h (and optionally kconfigwidgets/src/kstandardaction.h).
Oh duh, of course. I can work on that.

Add standard shortcut for "Show/Hide Hidden Files" Summary: Add a standard shortcut for this action so it can be synchronized between different apps and the file dialog; see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=262551. The action in Dolphin also has F8 bound to this, but the definition here only accept two default shortcuts, and F8 seems kind of random.

Could we have ctrl+h and alt+. to show hidden folders in folder selector too? right-click on wallpaper, choose "Configure desktop..." set "Wallpaper type" to "Slideshow" and click on "+ Add folder" button try to show hidden folders by pressing ctrl+h and alt+. Such shortcuts have no effect.
Context menu of folder selector has "Show hidden folders" option but its shortcut is F8. Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70.0 Qt Version: 5.14.1

This has been fixed, right?
Yep. Not sure why the bug report didn't get closed.
That "fairly random" was rather well established and I'm sure quite a few people will trip over that. At least now I know this is not a bug...
