Bug ID: 472112
Summary: Respect the users' choice of BinaryUnitDialect
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 23.04.3
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: jackhill3...@gmail.com
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
A user can choose to prefer SI unit prefixes for their binary numbers by adding
the following to ~/.config/kdeglobals:
[Locale]
BinaryUnitDialect=2
but Dolphini does not always respect this choice. Instead it continues to use
IEC units in the main panel (and potentially other places?). It DOES respect
this for the properties dialogue and bottom panel showing disk space.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add the aforementioned lines to the kdeglobals file
2. Open Dolphin
3. Enable Details View Mode
4. Look at the size of a file shown in the list
OBSERVED RESULT
Size is given like "19.1 MiB"
EXPECTED RESULT
Size is given like "20.1 MB" (it's a 20,056,162 byte file)
