            Bug ID: 449537
           Summary: Enabling show full path checkbox in Dolphin location
                    bar is not preserved between invocations, '>'
                    interface is hard to use
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 20.12.1
          Platform: Debian stable
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: bars: location

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start Doplhin
2. Right click on a folder in the location bar
3. Check checkbox "Show full path"
4. Quit Dolphin
5. Start Dolphin
6. Right click on a folder in the location bar

OBSERVED RESULT
Check box set in step 3, above, is not preserved between sessions.

EXPECTED RESULT
Check box set in step 3, above, should be preserved between sessions. 
New interface is hard to use, trying to hit a single '>' character is
unnecessarily difficult, previous version wasn't such a challenge.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Bullseye 64 bit 11.2
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.78.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The whole breadcrumb location bar interface behaves inconsistently (bug
442239). I moved from Ubuntu 16.04 to Debian Bullseye, and thought I had set up
my system incorrectly. I had disks mounted in my home directory for extra
storage, but whenever I navigated to a directory in one of the mounted disks,
the location bar would change to the disk size, e.g. "367.7 GiB Hard Drive".
It's a horrible way to use a file browser, and I was quite pleased to be able
to switch back to the previous version (having to click on '>' is *really*
picky, but then I find that it's back to square one, as the location bar
setting of "show full path" isn't saved between each use of Dolphin. I just
want to use the previous UI style, as it was friendlier/easier, and
predictable.
