Please open separate topics for these and explain each of them more thoroughly (like adding the tabs screenshot in the post itself). This way, there is no indication which of the ideas people like, and which not without reading all the comments.


i hate to remind you of the thread title "Dolphin Suggestions". suggestionS as in MULTIPLE. that said no. 2 in the second post is incorrect when you close dolphin and relaunch it dolphin ONLY opens 1 tab and that is you default tab. i find if i want dolphin out of the way and keep my open tabs it's better to minimize it. now that said i do like the fact that on logoff / login or reboot the dolphin windows and tabs are restored. example in my case: one dolphin window opened to tv series and last episodes tabs, and another opened to desktop, desktop shortcuts, torrents, and last night's tabs. on landing on the desktop both of these windows, their respective tabs, and their respective locations are restored.

So, about Dolphin... Here is a very useful feature which is missing: displaying the size of the folders, like MacOs does. And don't tell me "use proprieties"... I want the size of folders appears, so I can sort them -- and files -- by size and see who is the monster in da house!

And Directory Opus 5 for Amiga-like systems, Directory Opus 6+ for Windows, and Ambient for MorphOS :))

Hello there!

First time posting in the KDE Forums, I hope I can be useful.

I don't know if it's Dolphin's job or KIO's, but it would be nice to be able to queue copy operations with the same folder destination instead of running them concurrent. With SSDs and NVMes I'm sure this is not as useful, but on RAID systems and HDDs, it could really make the copy faster since the needles won't be going back and forth trying to write everything at the same time.

Also, it would be wonderful for the copy to skip failed file copy attempts and keep trying the next file, while showing the error message as it does now, so the copy does not stop when the first error occurs, making unattended large copies so much easy to deal with.
