2026-02-10tabbar: readd auto-with tab width and make it defaultMéven Car
2026-01-31tab settings: add tab styleNicolai Sehrt
Add a Full Width option and a Fixed Size option. This removes the current behavior of adapting to tab name, i.e folder name.

2026-01-17Add options to always show tab bar and hide close buttonsxi ota
This MR adds options to keep tab bar always visible and to remove the close button from tabs. MR !269 cannot be reopened because the branch it is based on is no longer accessible. Per @meven direction, I am opening this new MR. Note: Defaults to current defaults. ![dolphin-config](/uploads/342914c6067f69dfe7146a3c938e2083/dolphin-config.png){width=734 height=597} ![dolphin-main](/uploads/2da396c36ca5074829123511f54968cc/dolphin-main.png){width=762 height=580} Criticisms of previous MR: * Options should take effect immediately when users apply new settings, rather than requiring restart. * Done. * Concern about potential maintenance burden. * I've been maintaining some version of this patch for ~4-5 years, available via [aur/dolphin-tabopts](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dolphin-tabopts) and Chaotic AUR. During that time, only two major rebases were needed. First was what appeared to be automated linting and reformatting. Second was when the preferences system was reorganized. Had the patch been integrated in the code base prior to those refactors, the first would have required zero maintainer intervention (assuming automated reformatting). The second would have required minimal effort beyond what was needed for the refactor itself. Every defect I've noticed during that time were also present in the unpatched package. * There is no demand or desire for this feature. * Equivalent settings are available in various apps across operating systems and desktop environments, including several KDE apps, such as akregator, kate, konsole (confirmed in 25.12.1). * The first merge request in this repo !1 was to implement always showing the tab bar. * Some users have found, created an account, and commented at the previous MR to ask that it be reconsidered. * Arch opt-in pkgstats shows non-zero count for aur/dolphin-tabopts since early 2023. Max 15 in early 2025. Current 5. * Chaotic AUR download metrics is 41 (rolling 30-day count). * Unproductive "discussion" not worth further comment.
2025-12-12Clarify split view startup option labelPhilipp Kiemle
Using plural here better conveys that every new window will have split view mode enabeled. The original string was introduced in !1103 CCBUG:464696 CCBUG:186185
2025-12-03folderstabssettingspage: add 3 options for closing split viewRafał Lichwała
There is one bool setting in Dolphin Interface->Folders&Tabs->Split_view which determines which panel is closed on "Close split view" button click (currently focused or unfocused one). This commit replaces this setting with (enum-based) 3-state combo box. Since now we can set "When closing a split view" action to: - Close the active pane - Close the inactive pane - Close the right pane BUG: 464696 BUG: 186185
2025-10-23PreviewSettings: add a tooltip showing the filename of pluginsMéven Car
So users can identify them and distinguish them when two plugins provide the same mimetype support or help figure out devs where the plugins are loaded from.

2025-02-24Add smaller statusbar and set it as defaultAkseli Lahtinen
- Statusbar has three modes: Small, FullWidth and Disabled - FullWidth is the original statusbar - Small is the new default statusbar - This statusbar overlays on top of the items instead of taking space - It changes size according to content - Disabled turns statusbar completely off - Zoom slider and space information is only shown in full-width statusbar - Space information is now always on - If user navigates with keyboard, or scrolls to selection, the scrolling will take the statusbar into account - This makes sure the statusbar does not cover any items Related discussion: https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/issues/50
2024-11-13FoldersTabsSettingsPage: Remove double cast, remove unnecessary variableAkseli Lahtinen
This uses only qobject_cast here, having static_cast after it is redundant. Also remove the topLevelWidgets variable, since we can just call the method instead.
2024-08-30settings: Fix the Use Current Location buttonAkseli Lahtinen
During the Dolphin settings revamp (https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/commit/489b56b68bb29e81337e115c490eea4403001b71?) this QUrl had been forgot to add back so that the FoldersTabsSettingsPage knows what is the current url. This change checks for the main window of dolphin, then gets the URL of it whenever useCurrentLocation is called. However, when this is used as KCM, the button is not created, since there it doesn't make sense. BUG:491753
2024-08-28Make settings tabbar expandingCarl Schwan
Allow to use https://invent.kde.org/plasma/breeze/-/merge_requests/478 but even without the breeze MR, it look better and similar to what we do with other settings page.
2024-08-17Make FoldersTabsSettingsPage fully usable for blind usersFelix Ernst
This commit fixes keyboard navigation for the "Folders & Tabs" page in Dolphin's settings dialog. It also makes sure that the Orca screen reader reads out sufficient information for every widget that can get keyboard focus. These two groups of fixes together should allow basic usage of this settings page for users relying on keyboard controls and screen readers. One weirdness prior to this commit was that for checkboxes with a short group label in front and the full description behind screen readers would only read out the label and skip the explanation what the checkbox actually does. This commit fixes this by explicitly setting the accessible text for the label. In practice only reading out the explanation and skipping the label seemed sufficient and is implemented here, but more specific text could be provided using this mechanism if needed.

This makes the explanation a bit less jargonistic. While I rose the issue on Nate's TWIK blog, Sergey Katunin (@sgakerru) came up with the final wording of this change. Thanks!

2024-05-11Add "Act as Administrator" toggle actionFelix Ernst
This commit adds an "Act as Administrator" toggle action to the View menu if kio-admin is installed. The action allows switching between acting as an admin with root-access or not. This was already possible in Dolphin when kio-admin is installed by editing the location bar directly. However this is somewhat unintuitive and there are no warnings at all about the dangers of acting as an administrator. This commit adds a warning dialog when triggering the action. It is somewhat explicit about the risks because this is in fact very dangerous. Furthermore, while acting on a view with administrative privileges, a bar above the view shows up that contains a warning. The bar can be closed to stop acting with elevated privileges. The warning dialog can be disabled and re-enabled from the Dolphin settings but only if the action is even available. There is a lot more to be done to further improve this feature both security-wise as well as when it comes to usability. But considering that we are already encouraging users to use this feature without any warnings at all, I feel like now is a good time to merge this. This work is part of a project funded through the NGI0 Entrust Fund, a fund established by NLnet with financial support from the European Commission's Next Generation Internet programme, under the aegis of DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology. As such, please contact me if you plan on doing related work so what you are doing doesn't collide with work I am being funded to do.
2024-05-07settings: use QFormLayout for confirmation tabMéven Car
For consistency.
2024-03-27Touch up various user-visible stringsTem PQD
This improves consistency among wording. More clarity is achieved by avoiding technical terms or terms with multiple meanings. Notable changes: -Specify full settings path: "Configure Dolphin > View > General" in Show Hidden Files whatsThis -Mention setting to hide files with application/x-trash MIME type in "Show Hidden Files" whatsThis -Mention Split View mode in "Copy/Move to Other View" whatsThis -Reword "Activate Tab" actions to "Go to Tab" (Next, Previous, Last, numbers) -Add "Last Tab" iconText, consistent with "Next Tab" & "Previous Tab" -Update Split View whatsthis to explain how to tell which view is "in focus" visually -Replace "pane" with "view" in split view settings text, and clarify tooltip text -Reword "objects" to "items" in whatsThis texts -Reword "find bar" to "search bar" in Search button whatsThis text
2024-03-15Add settings page for PanelsBenedikt Thiemer
For now this just includes the settings for the information panel. Prior to this commit the options for configuring the information panel were only exposed via right clicking the information panel. This was not discoverable enough. Our guidelines also state that much. See: https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Design/Frequently_Discussed_Topics#Context_menus_are_not_enough The settings page is missing the "Configure" button for the entries in the information panel, which can only be found in the context menu. This is because I thought it would be weird to move it to the settings page. (The "configure" button is used to select the entries for the information panel) BUG: 480243 FIXED-IN: 24.05
2023-11-13Remove some frames from the settingsCarl Schwan
QTabWidget with setDocumentMode is more adapted as the QTabWidget in the settings are filling the whole view and we only need to draw a separator at the top.
