Bug ID: 491712
Summary: Text file with extension other than .txt has an empty
icon unless you put content in it.
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 24.05.2
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: koce...@tutanota.com
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
If you try to create a text file with an extension other than .txt by using
Create New > Text file, the file that gets created has an empty icon and
appears as "Empty document" in the properties of the file until you open it,
and edit it to put something in it with Kate for example.
I tested a Live ISO with Fedora 40 KDE which has KDE Plasma 6.0.3 and Dolphin
24.02.1 and the file is created with an icon, and in properties it appears as
"Plain text document".
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new text file with an extension different than .txt (for example
.cfg or .conf)
2. Notice that the icon is empty and it's listed as "Empty document" in
properties
3. Edit the file with Kate and put something in it.
4. The file has an icon now and it appears as "Plain text document"
OBSERVED RESULT
File is created with no icon
EXPECTED RESULT
File has an icon
