Description Morse 2013-10-16 10:20:46 UTC 
The name says it all: org.gnome.nautilus.preferences.show-hidden-files has no effect on nautilus, while org.gtk.settings.file-chooser.show-hidden do so.
Comment 1 António Fernandes 2013-10-16 11:41:36 UTC 
This is how it is intended to work, according to the description of org.gnome.nautilus.preferences.show-hidden-files:

> This key is deprecated and ignored. The "show-hidden" key from "org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser" is now used instead.

Background here: bug 143599.

Is this wrong in some way?

> Is this wrong in some way?
No, if it's intended, it's ok. It's just that in conjunction with Bug 710258 this issue made me really confused: I accidentally got the hidden files being shown by default with no means to change it back. Let's hope the other bug will be fixed soon.
Comment 3 António Fernandes 2013-10-16 12:02:01 UTC 
Right. I suspect that the same thing happened to the reporter of bug 710201.
Comment 4 António Fernandes 2013-10-16 12:03:25 UTC 
Oops, I meant bug 710093.
