That works in Caja, which I already did, but not in Leafpad or gedit.
Various applications let you right-click in the file lister that appear
when you want to open a file, and select some options (like show hidden
files). But I think it's going to depend on each application.
Run your app, e.g. gedit, click the open file button, and in the middle
of the list of files that pops up, right-click.
And I just read some other advice to hit CTRL+H while the file lister
is open to toggle hiding/showing hidden files. That also works for me.
It works in Pluma (well it does on this old PC I'm using), the simple
text editor in Mate, and gedit. It works on Pluma on my Fedora 40 PC,
but I don't have gedit installed to try, nor leafpad.
And when I close Pluma and restart it, the show hidden files option is
still ticked (which surprised me). And other gnome/mate apps using the
same kind of file lister window also have the show hidden files
preselected, now.
Hi Tim,
<Ctrl><H> did the trick. Thank you!!!
