Description Sebastien Bacher 2009-06-24 15:59:28 UTC 
the bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363879

"- ctl-2 to put in in list view
- unfold a folder that has files inside, using the triangle at the left of the file name: you will see the files in that folder (let's suppose it's the folder Desktop)
- ctl-h to show hidden files => folder Desktop is shrinked, (folded) BUG the user expects that Desktop remains unfolded"

doing ctrl-R has the same effect

I'd like to confirm this. It is the most annoying thing in gnome for me, especially when communicating to a server via nautilus.
