My default view profile for Konqueror is ‘File management’. In that profile I have set the ostensible default view mode to ‘detailed list’. However, during a Konqueror session it does not always stay that way; sometimes it reverts to ‘icon view’.
For example, if I open a text file from Konqueror, the file will open in the application I have specified in ‘file associations’: LibreOffice for odt files, Kedit for txt files, etc. After such files are closed from Konqueror, the file list reverts to ‘detailed list’.
If however I open any other file type, such as a jpg file, after such file is closed the file list reverts to ‘icon view’ instead of the ostensible default ‘detailed list’ file view. How do I cause Konqueror in such situations to revert to that default?
In file .trinity/share/config/konquerorrc there is the following entry:
[ModeToolBarServices] external=konq_detailedlistview
Is that entry related to the problem I am experiencing?
Regards, Ken

My preferred view as well. Here's my notes on the topic

Thank you so much! I meanwhile am working about 20 years with Konqueror and never stumbled about this possibility. I often looked for any possibe way to keep ListView choice though.

Ken Heard!
You're bloody man! This is brilliant. I've been using kong for years and NEVER thought to look in the embedded section.
I give thee 2 billion tons of chocolate biscuits (cookies aye?). (Kate konks Ken on the heard with a chocolate biscuits)
Rise Sir Ken.
Thanks mate

Thank you, Dave, for this tip. I could find no reference to it in either the kde handbook or by a Google search. I had found the ‘media’ selection and had changed the order for the other things, but it had not occurred to me to look in the ‘inode’ selection.
Regards, Ken

Thanks form me too. Wonderful! I had never dug as far as embedded!! I don't think I knew what it meant in this context. :-/

Yes it was Dave’s. I would prefer the chocolate biscuits, but my spouse would not approve -- I would get too fat.
