            Bug ID: 433937
           Summary: Add a Details column for "Folder", not just "Path"
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 20.12.2
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: view-engine: details mode
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
We currently have a column for sorting files into path, but these paths can be
very long and require scrolling left and right. I do a lot of document
management with a lot of sub-folders and this can slow me down. It would be
nice to have a column that just shows the folder that the file is in, not the
entire path of the file. I've seen this function in Windows and it was more
useful for me than a full path column.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open folder in Details View Mode
2. Right click columns, Other, Paths

OBSERVED RESULT
Paths option can be very long with a lot of sub-folders, especially folders
with long names

EXPECTED RESULT
Folders option that shows only the name of the folder that the file is housed
in without the rest of the path

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro KDE
KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.79.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is obviously a feature request, not a bug report. I hope this is the right
forum for this request.
