The font settings have been ignored currently because of the transition to the new view-engine.
The patch is based on the work of Janardhan Reddy and has been extended by the helper class ViewModeSettings.
BUG: 288395
FIXED-IN: 4.8.0
The new view-engine currently does not support inline-renaming
and because of more important pending issues this cannot be
implemented for the 4.8 release of KDE applications.
The plan for 4.9 is to implement inline-renaming again and
to make it "so good" (tm) that it is always turned on (-> there is
no need anymore for an option to disable it ;-)
CCBUG: 286893
- The view properties dialog mixed the details-view with
the compact-view (#285848).
- The view properties have been reset when applying a
setting from the "Dolphin Preferences" dialog. The rootcause
was that the obsolete DolphinSettings class implemented
the saving in a wrong way because of the recent refactoring
(will remove this class completely now to prevent such
issues in future).
BUG: 285848
FIXED-IN: 4.8.0
- Rename setCategorizedSorting() to setGroupedSorting()
- Change the model interface to allow enabling/disabling grouping
without the need to declare a role (the sort role will be taken).
- Add dummy group role implementation in KFileItemModel
The grouping code itself requires some cleanups and might crash
at the moment or lead to weird layouts.
Dolphin 2.0 will get a new view-engine with the
following improvements:
- Better performance
- Animated transitions
- No clipped filenames due to dynamic item-sizes
- Grouping support for all view-modes
- Non-rectangular selection areas
- Simplified code for better maintenance
More details will be provided in a blog-entry during
the next days.
Please note that the code is in a very
early alpha-stage and although the most tricky parts
have been implemented already very basic things like
drag and drop or selections have not been pushed yet.
Those things are rather trivial to implement but this
still will take some time.
In KDE <= 4.6, the 'jpegrotatedthumbnail' plugin was used to provide
thumbnails for JPG images which are rotated correctly. In KDE 4.7, this
is done by the usual 'jpegthumbnail' plugin if it is configured
accordingly. The update of the settings is done in KFilePreviewGenerator.
However, if Konqueror is run in web browsing mode and the settings dialog
is opened, KFilePreviewGenerator does not have a chance to do the update.
To make sure that the correct plugins are shown in the settings, this
commit adds a plugin update to PreviewSettingsPage.
The old code that just removed the 'jpegrotatedthumbnail' plugin without
enabling the 'jpegthumbnail' plugin is removed.

(cherry picked from commit 626fb3cf58)
A possible crash in one Dolphin window should not result in crashing
other Dolphin windows. Beside this it also prevents issues with
modal dialogs or notifications.
