Bug ID: 356770
Summary: Confirmation if filename is changed to begin with a
dot (= hidden file)
Product: dolphin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: matti.kettu...@gmail.com
If user is not familiar with hidden files he/she can accidentially hide a file
by changing the filename.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Activate file and press F2 to rename it
2. Press delete or backspace
3. Press enter
Actual Results:
File will be renamed with it's extension only. For example file.pdf -> .pdf
Because new filename begins with a dot it will be hidden.
Expected Results:
Dolphin should ask for confirmation if user is changing filename so that the
file will be hidden.
Confirmation should be asked because most of the "normal" computer users are
not familiar with hidden files and they might think that the file was
accidentally deleted.
