            Bug ID: 14423
           Summary: U18.04 Thunar Hidden files in Tree view visibility
                    only changes from last open window
    Classification: Xfce Core
           Product: Thunar
           Version: 1.6.15
          Hardware: PC (x86_64)
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: General
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: dj_kaza at hotmail.com

  Target Milestone: 1.8.0

Just come across this bus in Ubuntu Studio 18.04, seems there is no way to
report the bug to the Xubuntu team on Launchpad directly. Thunar version in
question is 1.6.15 according to the Help page.

Bug is pretty simple to recreate:
Open Thunar
Make sure Tree sidepane is selected.
Expand Home in Tree so you can see the folder list.
Press Ctrl+H to show and hide the hidden folders.
Open a second instance of Thunar and expand the Home folder in Tree as above.
Press Ctrl+H - It will show/hide the hidden folders from the Tree in both (all)
open Thunar windows!
Go back to the original window.
Press Ctrl+H - It will only change visibility of the hidden folders in the main
pane, not the tree pane.

Obviously Ctrl+H should only affect the window which had focus when it was
pressed. And it should always affect all parts of that window.
Currently Ctrl+H always affects the main section of the current window but the
Tree pane is affected globally by the last opened Thunar window.
