Hi jahvascriptmaniac
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
I can confirm that when using the package nautilus on Ubuntu 10.10 using
the steps provided by jahvascriptmaniac that I can reproduce the bug.
Therefore I have set this bug to confirmed.
To reproduce this bug I followed the steps below:
1. Create a new folder called test in your home directory
2. Create (or copy) a file inside this folder and make it hidden.
3. Right-click on the folder and click properties
4. Note that properties window says 'Contents: nothing'
5. Press CTRL+H to show hidden files
6. Go back to properties window and note that it still says 'Contents: nothing'
What I expected to happen:
For the Nautilus properties window to include the size of hidden files and
number of hidden files either:
-All the time
or
-When hidden files are selected to be shown (CTRL+H)
However someone will need to decide which behaviour should be the
default. I personally would expect the second option to be the default
and not the current behaviour.
