Created attachment 121499 [details] screenshot STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. open kate 2. press ctrl+0 to open file open dialog 3. set details view mode 4 . click "Sorting" button in the tool bar OBSERVED RESULT As we can see in the attached screenshot, "Sorting by type" is available but there is no "Type" collumn in the files view. EXPECTED RESULT Files view has "Type" collumn SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.60.0 Qt Version: 5.13.0
From the code, this looks intentional. It's a trivial fix, but I think I might see why it was removed. The set of columns is non-editable, so if we added it, it would always be there, which could be kind of annoying since it's a low-value column. We should make the set of columns editable, then people can add them column for themselves if they want it.
it's still not editable. :( Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.86.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Graphics Platform: Wayland
