Bug ID: 508135
Summary: Show / Hide Status Bar Shortcut is gone
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version First 25.04.3
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: bars: status
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
Reporter: imagesfromobjects at gmail.com
CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY:
Prior to the 25.04.3 update that came with Debian 13 / Trixie, Dolphin had a
way to quickly show and hide the status bar via adding an icon to the toolbar
and / or creating a keyboard shortcut. The new layout, as discussed here:
https://discuss.kde.org/t/dolphin-missing-bar-on-bottom/33549 made this
nonexistent.
Now, a user must navigate through the menu to enable / disable the status bar,
which is extra tedious when one also keeps the menu hidden. Where before it was
simply a matter of clicking an icon on the toolbar, now it's become multiple
steps: CTRL+M > Settings > Configure Dolphin > Interface > Status and Location
bars > Disable > Apply > OK > CTRL+M.
Users who frequently work with large files (photo, audio, video etc) need to
check their remaining drive space often and having a quick way to toggle this
on and off is important and saves both screen real estate and time.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin
2. Try to hide or show the Status Bar with your toolbar shortcut
3. Oops, it's gone.
OBSERVED RESULT
See above.
EXPECTED RESULT
Also see above.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: Debian 13 / Trixie
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I dig that there are now separate settings to show / hide the Zoom bar and
Status Bar would LOVE it if there were independent shortcuts / toolbar icons
for each of these. Thanks for your time!
