Created attachment 144504 [details] Screenshot of dolphin, displaying the files SUMMARY Dolphin is a fine product, I really do like it. However there is a small thing that is bugging me: When sorting my files by name, but folders first, '.'-files and folders not hidden, my personal files and folders are sorted somewhere in the middle of the file list. This is the expected behavior but i would like an option to make my files appear at the top. I request a feature to sort files and folders by whether their name starts with '.'. For reference I attached a screenshot, notice the text file all the way at the bottom, I find this really annoying. It would be nice if all my files and folders would be grouped in one place, not split by the '.'-files and folders. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. open ~/ using dolphin 2. notice how there are a lot of files and folders starting with '.' (if no folders and files starting with '.' are found, make sure you don't have them hidden, if in doubt press ctrl+h) 3. when sorting by name, folders first, I experience that my personal folders are around half way down the list, because '.'-folders are sorted before alphanumerically named folders. They are not all the way at the bottom, because at the bottom there are lots of config files (naturally all starting with '.'). Personal files are all the way at the bottom though. TO-BE-EXPECTED / OBSERVED RESULT Personal folders are not at the top nor at the bottom of the file tree PREFERRED RESULT Personal folders and files are grouped together at the top or at the bottom of the file tree (Maybe make '.' be sorted as if it was the last character in the alphabet) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: 5.15.6-arch2-1, x86_64 GNU/Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.88.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
