[Bug 756280] Re: Files lense should ignore hidden files
@Simon Hirscher: I am using up-to-date Ubuntu 11.10 and still have the problem with the files located in the .-folders - they are still visible in the unity-files-lens. It is true that if the file is a hidden file - it does not show in the Files Folders in Ubuntu 11.10. But if the file is located in a hidden directory, either directly in it or in a subdirectory, it is still showing up in the Files Folders in the Dash. I don't think this is a normal behavior, since still the idea of the hidden directory is broken - it's not hidden anymore if it's showing in the Dash, no matter if it's hidden in Nautilus and the Terminal. Should I report it as another bug or is it better to reopen the current one? ** Summary changed: - Files lense should ignore hidden files + Files lense should ignore hidden files and folders ** Description changed: Install unity-place-files 0.5.46-0ubuntu5.1 from natty-proposed and restart your session 1. get sure you already opened a file starting with . 2. make a search in the file lense which should match this file and ensure it doesn't appear I hid a file and opened it.

[Bug 756280] Re: Files lense should ignore hidden files
@Gauco: That's the point of recent files, but I don't think it applies to hidden ones. Sorry, I do not understand this statement. I still do not get any difference between a normal recently used files feature (in an application or like in classical Gnome) displaying hidden files and the one in unity. Hidden files should be called hidden (with quotation marks) because it takes e.g. one Strg+H to display them in nautilus, a better name is dotfiles because -- at least in my point of view -- their only purpose is to hide the configuration files and directories in the default listing the home dir (or stuff like .svn, .git or .lock-#3245~ in any other dir). I think they were never intended for privacy. Actually, I think the proposed patch even somewhat fails for this use case: (non-hidden) files in hidden directories will still be displayed. Anyway, maybe I'll raise this question on a mailing list, this does not seem to be the right place (and if anyone is flaming, this seems to be me because the general consensus is against me ;-)). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/756280 Title: Files lense should ignore hidden files -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Because unity is showing only *recently used* files, the situation is different -- in all comparable other places (Gnome 2 recently used files, recently used files in applications like gedit) hidden files are shown by default as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/756280 Title: Files lense should ignore hidden files -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 756280] Re: Files lense should ignore hidden files
Hmm, it seems to be agreed upon that this is a bug and it is already in progress -- may I cast my vote for *not* fixing this? I do not think hidden files are really meant to hide anything but really to avoid clutter, especially in your home directory full of configuration files. The upcoming zeitgeist activity manager seems to be much more suited to blacklist folders etc. What now, if I open the file .bashrc in gedit? gedit will show the file in its recent documents list and in Gnome 2 you would also find it in the global recent documents list -- why shouldn't the file lense show it as well?
