Is it me, or is info missing from Konqueror?

[Georgetoon]

I enjoy using Dolphin, but because it does not support multiple panes, I launch Konqueror.   However, I've noticed that Konqueror isn't reporting file information when I hover the mouse over a file.  I could be mistaken (and I'll check again tonight). 

Anyone else notice this? or do I have to toggle on a setting?

In Konqueror, try:

Settings->Configure Konqueror->File Management->General->Behavior->Show tooltips. Then hit "OK", and wait a couple of minutes -- or restart Konqueror. (The change isn't activated immediately when you hit "OK" or "Apply".)

Thanks!:)  I'll give that a look tonight!:)

Blackbird's suggestion works for me.  But neither Dolphin nor Konqueror in KDE4 give any more than the basic file information.  

I download a lot of podcasts of radio programs, and, in KDE3, hovering gets me a description of the programme content* as well as the file info.  This is useful when I have a stack of programmes with the same title but with different contents.

* In Kde3 I get the mp3 details too: Artist, Title, Album, Genre, Year and Comment.

And BINGO!  that did it!:) thank you blackbird and all!:)

Now, I guess I no longer have to worry about Dolphin not having multiple panes.
