            Bug ID: 360624
           Summary: Implement "Invert Filter" option
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: bars: filter
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: sowi...@dukun.de

I love the filter bar, and it's one of Dolphin's features I miss immediately 
in other file browsers. 
As I often use this feature, I had many cases where I wished I had an
invert-filter option, to only show the files where the filter did not match.

Use case: 
For instance, I have a folder with all the files from a camera, containing not
only *.jpg, but also various info-files, movies, sounds, …. It would be great
to type ctrl+i and .jpg, then press an invert-filter-checkbox and only the
non-jpeg-files are shown, so that I can ctrl+a these files and delete/move
them.

I suggest to add an 'Invert' checkbox after the filter bar, but a well
documented pattern expression for inversion  would also be fine (maybe a ! at
the  start  of a pattern). I hope it is not to complex to be implemented and
hope that it is useful for many more people. 

Reproducible: Always
