Bug ID: 504170
Summary: Make file selector overlay a global option so dolphin
and dialogues are consistent again
Classification: Frameworks and Libraries
Product: frameworks-kio
Version: 6.14.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Open/save dialogs
Assignee: kio-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: k...@fuchsnet.ch
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
As per the discussion in the VDG and in the merge request: the new file
selector overlay in the open file dialogue is inconsistent because there is a
config for said overlay (in dolphin, the only place that had it so far) which
is disrepected.
Thus if a user explicitly disables said overlay in dolphin (for various
sensible reason, including a high chance of unwanted clicks on elements that
only appear on hover) they still get it in the dialogues.
Thus I recommend converting this to a global option that is applied to
everywhere were we have these overlays.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0. Enable single click mode
1. Go to dolphin settings
2. Disable the file selector overlay
3. Open a dolphin instance and see that it is gone
4. Open a file picker dialogue (e.g. kdialog --getopenfilename --multiple)
5. Hover a file
OBSERVED RESULT
Overlay is there in file dialogue, gone in dolphin
EXPECTED RESULT
Same setting applies to both
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
