           Summary: view settings not saved in file selector side bar
           Product: kate
           Version: 2.2
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kwrite-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: deepak antrix net


Version:           2.2 (using KDE 3.2 BRANCH >= 20040204, Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2 (Mandrake Linux 10.0 3.3.2-6mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.6.3-3mdk

Open the file selector from the sidebar.
Make sure 'short view' is chosen (rightclick>view>short view)
Now, choose small icons (rightclick>view>small icons). the view changes appropriately and small icons are shown.
But now quit kate and restart, the view is back to large icons.

Similarly, the 'show thumbnails' preference for the 'short view' is not remembered. 

Expected behaviour: This preference should be saved across sessions.

The preference to show detailed view and not short view is saved correctly and remembered across sessions.

'Restore window configuration' (which seems to me to be the closest related setting) in 'Configure-Kate> General > Startup' is enabled.
