Giant folder icons apearing SOLVED
« on: July 03, 2010, 10:48:20 PM »
Yesterday morning, after an update, I noticed that I had giant icons   ;D

This happens when I look at my files in Konqueror , using "View/view mode/details".
They are probably the biggest size available
However, when I use "View/view mode/icons " or "View/view mode/columns" , the size is small ( 22x22) as it always has been

I have been looking in " Configure your desktop//look and feel"  and others, but I seem to be unable to get them back to a smaller size

>>>> Now, I just noticed that it is the same in Dolphin

Most probably ( or hopefully ) it's a small thing, but.......I need some help.
Have spend a lot of time on this, and don't see where else I can look

Thanks in advance

Xenaflux,
 
When in Dolphin, If I turn off (Icons and Preview) at the top, and simply select (Details) I get small icons.

OK, that works for Dolphin, but I still got them in Konqueror
Btw, I never use Dolphin for anything. Not that I can remember anyway.

Thanks

OK, I got the other ones too.

I think my brain needs an update too, as I don't seem to be able any more to think straight. Maybe it's my PD.
I found it under Settings, configure Konqueror/File management /view modes.

Pretty logical, isn't it

Which raises the question....who or what did change it to big icons in the first pace ?
Since I didn't know how to make them smaller, it's logic that I didn't know how to make them bigger.
So, another KDE4 annoyance ?


Thanks for setting me on the right path   ;D ;D ;D

Open Dolphin, to any location with directories. Hold down the Ctrl key and press the + key in the numbers block. Press it again, and again. While still holding the Ctrl key down, now press the - key in the numbers block, and again, and again.  :D

Thanks

That could well be a possible explanation, although I , of course, have no recollection of it.

Is there not a zoom feature on the bottom of the Dolphin pane for such adjustments?

Hold down <ctrl> and roll mouse wheel?
