Hi all,
quick question regarding Trinity's Dolphin:
When "Save view properties for each folder" is disabled, any setting related
to sort mode (by name, by date etc.) or sort order (ascending, descending) is
reset as soon as the folder is changed. This also applies to the "Show Hidden
Files" option.
Even if "All folders" is selected in "View" > "Adjust View Properties ..." the
above persists. The "Apply view properties to:" options only seem to have any
effect if "Save view properties for each folder" from the settings is also
enabled.
So without enabling per-folder settings (and having .d3lphinview files
everywhere) there is no way in Dolphin to set persistent global view
properties like sort order - or am I missing something?
Best regards,
Leskala

Don't know if it is a feature of ksnapshot or a misconfiguration
somewhere from me, but it is getting absolutely annoying what happens.
I have a website, a document or whatsoever on my screen in full
A4-papersize. Now I want a printout of a small part of it. Call
ksnapshot, choose "region" "new snapshot" and then draw a border around
the desired part. Press "print" and then print it. Bull... I get a
print in landscape, useless and even worse not even the original layout
reappears.
Stop ksnapshot, restart it and same procedure with again the same
miserable result.
Stop, restart, same procedure but no actual printing, instead I look
into the printer properties. And there, big surprise, landscape was
marked as to be printed BUT all 4 orientations were grayed out, so I
couldn't change that.
Checked in tdeprint the printersettings, nothing wrong, in "instances"
"settings" all 4 orientations were available and portrait was marked as
to be applied in the default printer.
Checked kprinter and of course the settings of tdeprint were there also
valid.
But then I had an idea. If I selected in ksnapshot a larger part of the
screen, say more than half A4, what would happen?
Yes, some ugly words from me and there it was: portrait was marked but
still all 4 possibilities grayed out.
So ksnapshot decides how it wants to print and doesn't leave the user a
chance to get a result, that he wants. Utterly bull....
Any suggestion, where I could look to alter this behaviour?

I am trying to configure special window rules for some VirtualBox machines.
I want the virtual machines to always open in virtual desktop/workspace 2.
I have many virtual machines but a few I use almost daily. Many years
ago I created *.desktop files to launch these few systems without
needing to launch the VirtualBox Manager. I have used devilspie to force
launching in desktop 2.
While devilspie works well in TDE, I want to do this natively with TDE
special window rules.
I have been unable to configure special rules in TDE to ensure the
virtual machines open in desktop 2.
Everything I try in TDE special rules results in the virtual machines
opening in the current desktop.
Other special window rules are working as expected.
Selecting the special rules "Detect" button does not help.
I suspect something different about VirtualBox that is not obvious.
Help is appreciated with respect to creating TDE special rules.
Thank you!
P.S.
To simulate the *.desktop files, launch the mini cli (Alt+F2) and launch
a virtual machine like this:
vboxmanage startvm "name_of_virtual_machine"

When using tree or list view, is there a Konqueror setting for the file
date stamp format or is the date stamp hard-coded to using the TDE short
date format?
Thanks.
I know this once worked as expected but my Konsole sessions no longer
display bold fonts.
Is there a config setting I am overlooking?
I tried different fonts and schema.
Ideas?
Thanks.

Hello,
I'm used to writing my password on the numpad, but it's always locked when I open the computer. I tried enabling the numlock from trinity control center, but it's only enabling it after logging in.
Is there a way to enable it on the login screen? If not, it would be great to see something like this in the settings.
Hi All,
When selecting not to use any login splash there is nonetheless some
kind of mini startup dialog. The dialog does not appear when using a
splash or possibly is hidden by the splash. Is there a way to disable
this mini startup dialog? None should mean none.
Thanks for your time!

Hello,
I was thinking tonight that it would be nice if the Message List in kMail could show the
sizes of messages. Imagine my surprise when I looked at the Settings => Appearance,
Message List tab and discovered that there is such a setting, and it is turned on. (See
attached screenshot.)
Does anyone have an idea about why the size does not appear in the list?
