Dolphin or Konqueror - revisited
 

Back a couple of years ago, when KDE 4x was released, there were a lot of complaints about Dolphin.

I just did a fresh/clean install of Oneiric (how does one pronounce it?) and couldn't figure out
how to get a 'tree' view of my directories on the left side panel in Dolphin. So I opened
Konqueror and started playing around with its options.
I know that both Konqueror and Dolphin use the same backend but the configuration of Konqueror is
much easier than Dolphin and there are more options in Konqueror than in Dolphin - including a
'tree' view of my directories on the left side panel! :-)


So I am moving 'back' to Konqueror....

Dolphin or Konqueror - revisited
 

Nigel,
In Dolphin press F7 or View->Panels->Folders.
Why it's not enabled by default I don't know...

I was hoping someone would have the answer to Nigels problem. I never
played around enough to know this was even possible. Way cool.


Thanks Mark and Nigel.

F7 does display the directories but all of them, including everything under / and a not-so-nice
horizontal slide bar :-(
However in Konqueror, F9 displays only one's Home directory - much nicer and neater - but that's
why we love Linux - choice :-)
