For testing purposes, I made the proposed change to /usr/share/kubuntu- default-settings/kde-profile/default/share/config/konquerorrc, and konqueror then saves a .directory file if I navigate to some directory and then explicitly set a view mode for that specific directory.
Unfortunately, it seems this method only works for fixing this bug if, and only if, I navigate away from a file opened in konqueror to a directory that has previously had it's view mode set explicitly in abovementioned way. But not for any other directory, like when moving away from an opened file by clicking any random "untreated" directory in the tree view; when opening an empty new tab and clicking any "untreated" directory; or when setting view mode in one directory, then navigate to a subdir (retains view mode), opening some file there, and use "Up"-button to navigate away from it. It seems that the only fix for that behaviour is the workaround posted by Neil Levine on 2007-01-31? Note that on my system "detailed list view" is used as the default view mode (I assume this is part of the 'File Management' profile?). Maybe a fix could be to automagically adjust the setting described by Neil Levine to match with view mode? On a side note: regardless of whether it fixes this bug, I'm all for adding this SaveViewPropertiesLocally=true in kubuntu-default-settings since I find it generally most useful functionality to be able to set specific directories to a different default view mode this way. -- konqueror file manager loses chosen view setting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/69168 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for kdelibs in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
