GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 719324
Nautilus does not respect show/hide hidden files setting on mounted MTP device
Last modified: 2021-06-18 15:28:42 UTC
To reproduce: 1. Connect MTP device (in my case Nexus 4, Android 4.3) with USB cable. The device auto-mounts in Nautilus. 2. Select/unselect "Show hidden files" (or press Ctrl-H several times) 3. Note that hidden files are always shown, regardless of setting. This bug has previously been reported for Ubuntu 13.10 on Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1253203
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of Files (nautilus), then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
