Hi,

It would be great if there was a way to have the hidden folders show up *after* the non-hidden ones in Dolphin. To me the current sorting makes no sense. The non-hidden ones are clearly more important (since they are not hidden), but are shown after. Why? When I start dolphin, if I hit Alt+. my non-hidden folders get pushed back and it is harder to find them as they are not in their "usual" spot anymore. Also there are so many hidden folders, I have to scroll down to see the non-hidden ones! This could become the standard or simply be a check-box in the View Properties dialog box.

Here is a bug report asking for this same feature, so I'm not alone in wanting this. Someone even already wrote 2 patches for this!

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333219

The first patch will make it a hardcoded feature for all folders.

If you apply the second on top of the first, it will add an option in "View > Adjust View Properties" to make it optional per folder.

Note: original suggestion for bug report was more about files. Although extending this mechanism to both files and folders is even better.

Well - now in Dolphin there is an option to show hidden files last. Luckily something changed their minds to have that feature implemented
