            Bug ID: 454586
           Summary: Downloads folder no way to turn off grouping by
                    alphabet or date
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 22.04.1
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: atmahoney at gmail.com

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

The ~/Downloads folder is unlike every other folder displayed in Dolphin
- when sorted by Name groups files into sections by alphabet (A, B, C, ... 0-9)
- when sorted by Date groupy by (Today, $weekdays, $earlier-on, $Month-Year,
$Month-Year, ...)
- when sorted by size (Small, Medium, Big, ...)

Not trying to bash this mode for those that enjoy it, but I find this mode
unintuitive and hard to find the files I'm looking for. It confuses my eyes and
my existing experience using the file manager for everything else.  My googling
suggests there used to be a way to turn it off with unchecking a "Show by
group" box (e.g.
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/fa31cy/how_do_i_get_dolphin_to_treat_downloads_as_a/)
but I can't find this anywhere.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin
2. Click "Downloads"
3. Click any view mode (icons, list, details) to see the files grouped by sort
category
4. Click hamburger menu and look for a way to turn off grouping

OBSERVED RESULT
No way to turn off grouping

EXPECTED RESULT
Should be a way to turn off grouping
