Bug ID: 467216
Summary: Cannot search hidden files and folders without
indexing them first
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: david.cortes.riv...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I want to be able to search hidden files and folders with KDE's file manager
(Dolphin) like it works with Windows Explorer. But (a) it won't let me search
for hidden files and folders unless I index the folders where I want this
first; (b) the search settings work independently of what's configured in
Dolphin.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to System Settings -> Search -> File Search.
2. Try to enable searching hidden files and folders without building an index.
OBSERVED RESULT
Not possible.
EXPECTED RESULT
Should let me search hidden files and folders without indexing pre-selected
folders beforehand, like MS Windows does. Moreover, it should recognize when I
search from Dolphin whether I want hidden files/folders from the setting that I
am putting in Dolphin.
