            Bug ID: 483895
           Summary: Feature request: Button to quickly filter view to show
                    only files/folders from today/this hour
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: All
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

Nine out of ten times I use Dolphin (or any file browser) I work with recently
used files, say a file I saved a minute ago or something I worked with before
lunch, etc. Yet I have to wade through ALL my files and folders, from weeks and
years ago that are of no interest to me in the moment.

I know I can sort by modified/created, and I know there's a "recent files"
section that may or may not (for some unknown reason or other) show the recent
file I'm looking for.

However, another way to quickly find the file I'm looking for would be to, at
the click of a button or press of a shortcut, have Dolphin filter the view to
only show files that were modified in the last hour or day (configurable). That
way, you could still have alphabetical sorting and the amount of files shown
would be much smaller, making it easier for your eyes to pick out the target.
