Propieties from Desktop & Dolphin

[Using KDE Neon with Plasma 5.12.3 & KDE Frameworks 5.44]

If I open "Properties", by right clicking on a desktop icon, only the "General" and "Permissions" tabs are displayed. For example, the tab "Check sums" is not displayed, or the "Last saved by" tab of LibreOffice documents.

This only happens in folders view on the desktop. If you open the Properties of a desktop icon, from Dolphin, you can see all the tabs (like Check sums).
Comment 1 Kai Uwe Broulik 2018-03-20 15:00:07 UTC
The difference is Desktop view uses a special desktop:/ URL for the desktop which isn't a "local path". If you open desktop:/ from Dolphin you will see the same. But KPropertiesDialog could be a bit smarter about it (e.g. checking the actual path of the file instead of just checking for "file" URL scheme).

What is the "ultimo guardado por" tab?
Comment 2 Kai Uwe Broulik 2018-03-20 15:03:14 UTC
The "Last saved by" needs to be fixed by LibreOffice but I think I can fix the Checksums one.

I bet the LibreOffice one just needs a similar fix

[KPropertiesDialog] Support Checksum tab for any local path

computeChecksum was already called with localPath() so check for it not being empty rather than isLocalFile().
This allows to calculate checksums also from e.g. desktop:/

That's part of calligra though, not LibreOffice. ;-)

Btw, the "Details" tab that shows file metadata (from baloo-widgets, not in any release yet, will be new in KDE Applications 18.04) is missing as well in folderview.

I see. Yeah I forgot to submit the comment saying I'm still on the Details one.
