File Explorer (Nemo) - expander 'triangle' in right pane disappeared

MichaelFinko

Hi,

I noticed that in the file explorer (Nemo?) the triangles to open and display the contents of the folder on the RIGHT pane disappeared. Did I do something to change my settings accidentally? I clicked pretty much every button I could find to try and resolve the issue.

The triangle to open a folder is still on the LEFT pane, however now I have to learn a new workflow, far from impossible but I liked it in the right pane.

Thanks,
Mlke

you mean the arrow that drops down the contents of a folder? mine are gone too. that really sucks since I need them.
Going to see if a setting got changed and will edit accordingly. but I don't know what right panel 'triangles' are only the left ones.

edit: fixed my 'triangle' disappearance in nemo via a setting. I'm not sure we are talking about the same thing though.
open your file manager, click help, click about so you can be certain we are talking about the same app.

I really don't know either.
But I checked my Nemo after reading this.

all the what-OP-calls-triangles were gone. I was alarmed til I found the setting in Nemo that restored the drop down folder thingy (what-OP-calls-triangles?). I didn't see Nemo in last Friday's update...maybe that's what made them disappear?

On the right side of Nemo I saw nothing, no Triangles.

I haven't had any lager yet but I am confused too. Hopefully op will clarify

brent They are part of the sidebar it seems you can hide the sidebar
But I have never seen the sidebar on the right side.
I could could not find anything about putting it on the right side

Go to NEMO settings, then view, then list view, tick show folder expanders box.
Done.
