Is there a way to get Geany to show hidden dirs when saving a file ?

Right click in the file window and see what it shows.

This works as well and is a nice tip I was unaware of. My approval Trapster.

Thanks.

Your method makes the showing of hidden dirs permanent.

Make show hidden permanent.

Create below file and put at " /root/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini"
Code: Select all
# /root/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini
[Filechooser Settings]
ShowHidden=true
All gtkfilechooser calls should now show hidden files.

Cheers,

Thanks.

After doing what trapster said, it now permanently shows hidden files/directories without having to right click.
