30 * @brief Maintains the view properties like 'view mode' or
31 * 'show hidden files' for a directory.
32 *
33 * The view properties are automatically stored as part of the file
34 * .directory inside the corresponding path. To read out the view properties
35 * just construct an instance by passing the path of the directory:
36 *
37 * \code
38 * ViewProperties props(KUrl("/home/peter/Documents"));
39 * const DolphinView::Mode mode = props.viewMode();
40 * const bool hiddenFilesShown = props.hiddenFilesShown();
41 * \endcode
42 *
43 * When modifying a view property, the '.directory' file is automatically updated
44 * inside the destructor.
45 *
46 * If no .directory file is available or the global view mode is turned on
47 * (see GeneralSettings::globalViewMode()), the values from the global .directory file
48 * are used for initialization.
