Configure -> Configure dolphin... Then select the view tab, and "remember display style for each folder"

Also Configure -> configure toolbars should let you put things where you want them.

How about you list ALL your questions in one post... or is that too difficult for you

For the first question's answer, that doesn't work if the directory's file system supports extended file attributes, as Dolphin will prioritize those above the .directory file.

Can I set "Display Style" in .directory file or have dolphine save to it ?
