            Bug ID: 467216
           Summary: Cannot search hidden files and folders without
                    indexing them first
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR

SUMMARY
I want to be able to search hidden files and folders with KDE's file manager
(Dolphin) like it works with Windows Explorer. But (a) it won't let me search
for hidden files and folders unless I index the folders where I want this
first; (b) the search settings work independently of what's configured in
Dolphin. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to System Settings -> Search -> File Search.
2. Try to enable searching hidden files and folders without building an index.

OBSERVED RESULT
Not possible.

EXPECTED RESULT
Should let me search hidden files and folders without indexing pre-selected
folders beforehand, like MS Windows does. Moreover, it should recognize when I
search from Dolphin whether I want hidden files/folders from the setting that I
am putting in Dolphin.
