Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When I open nautilus, a new window to the home folder, the hidden files get displayed by default even if their display is toggled off. Even though this is very minor issue, it is very distracting for the user to see all the hidden files every time he/she opens or launches a new window using nautilus. This is strictly a graphical issue. I am using Ubuntu 14.04. To reproduce the issue, - Open nautilus or launch a new window which displays the home folder. - You will find the hidden files being displayed by default. - Hide them using Ctrl+H and close that window. - Open the home folder again, and you can notice that these hidden files being displayed by default again.
