Unwanted hidden files in dialog boxes
by celem on Wed Dec 14, 2011 4:08 pm
I run Mint-9 amd64. This issue has irritated me ever since installation a year or two ago. When I use the open/save dialog in many (most) programs, my HOME folder shows the hidden files/folders yet other folders do not show their hidden files/folders. In Nautilus my hidden files/folders are not displayed unless I request it. As an example, Save-As dialog box in GNU-Paint does this. I tried to attach a screen shot but the forum rejects it saying "board attachment quota has been reached" Is there a cure?

Try right clicking in the open/save dialog.
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.
“The people are my God” stressing the factor determining man’s destiny lies within man not in anything outside man, and thereby defining man as the dominator and remoulder of the world.
