andy <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #5 from andy <[email protected]> --- This may be slightly off topic, but something has bothered me about sorting in Dolphin, and I didn't realize what it was until reading this bug report. The "direction arrow" shown in the columns is the opposite of what I would expect, and what I've become used to from most other "click to sort a column" experiences. For example, open up KSysGuard, and on the "Process table" tab, click the "CPU %" column to sort it. (This is a pretty common scenario: "Show me the top resource-consuming processes"). And notice: after one click, it auto-sorts from highest cpu % to lowest cpu %, and the direction of the arrow is pointing "down" (or maybe: big wide part at the top, small pointy part at the bottom). Conceptually this makes sense to me: big part of the arrow is at the top, and small is at the bottom, so it is "big to small" or "high to low cpu %". But now do the same for a column in Dolphin, and it is reversed. When the "Size" column has the arrow "big at top, small at bottom", the big files are at the bottom of the list and the small files are at the top. I'm sure the is a highly personal opinion, but anecdotally I swear the pattern in KSysGuard is far more common and natural, and if Dolphin conforms to it maybe it would resolve this bug as well. side note, this is my first comment ever, and if my suggestion makes sense I wouldn't mind implementing this as my first contribution :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
