Prior to and after setting *just* the view setting to Icons, the output is nothing. if I also set "sort by -> modified" in addition to Icons view I get the following: getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names # file: home/bananasgomoo/Documents user.kde.fm.viewproperties#1="[Dolphin]\012SortRole=modificationtime\012Timestamp=2025,2,6,18,20,16.384\012Version=4\012ViewMode=1\012" after resetting the sort by back to "name" (my default setting), the command once again returns nothing. so it is actively removing the attributes if only the view mode is changed. > And > > getfattr -d ~/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties/global > cat ~/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties/global/.directory > > When you have changed the default settings (that's where they are stored). > The .directory file isn't supposed to be present. getfattr -d ~/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties/global outputs the following: getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names # file: home/bananasgomoo/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties/global user.kde.fm.viewproperties#1="[Dolphin]\012Timestamp=2024,12,27,16,53,28.468\012Version=4\012ViewMode=1\012" as expected, the .directory does not exist: cat: /home/bananasgomoo/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties/global/.directory: No such file or directory > I will probably add verbose traces to dolphin, so that after a future > release we will have more to work with. that would be great. i feel like things are failing that arent being reported in the current debug. or maybe branches not being triggered. > > I'm a little concerned how this issue is so hard to reproduce, as I am > > using essentially stock KDE with stock Dolphin.
