how to set the views globally for all directories/folders, i.e. they all should have the same appearance: no preview, details, ..?

I have to change the appearance for every single folder I open with dolphin.

Has anybody an idea? Where is my mistake?

Thx a lot for your help

Open 1 single folder. Set it’s view settings to your liking. Then While that is open and set go to Dolphin’s settings and set the below to “Use common display style for all folders” and click apply.

You can also use the “Adjust View Display Style” dialog to pick the default settings when in “Remember display style for each folder”:

This is a feature too few users are aware of, we probably need to link the settings to it.

Isn’t that supposed to be for the current folder you are in and it’s subfolders?

You have a toggle to choose if you want it additionally be set as default additionally. to the the radio button choices.
There is “Current folder and sub-folders” for the recursive case.
