--- Comment #1 from Brennan Kinney <polarathene-sig...@hotmail.com> --- Right Click a file that does not show up in results. Choose properties. Permissions Tab, Advanced Permissions button. Click OK button to close the dialog, Click OK button to close the Properties dialog. Both OK buttons need to be pressed, either of them being cancel will not make the file searchable. When that sequence is done, the Info panel in Dolphin will update the metadata fields it presents, showing new ones such as "Author, Title, Document Generated By", existing metadata on the file like what URL it was downloaded from did exist prior to this. Some files do not seem to add any extra metadata(I've had images that do and images that do not). Whatever this sequence of actions does(which since no actual change was done beyond navigating dialogs and pressing only OK), it does something to cause the file to now be indexed. Simply opening the file or accessing it via Dolphin(mouse over to view data in the info panel) does not get the file indexed. --- If Dolphin fails to find results, should it not fallback to another search strategy? Shouldn't after performing it's current search from an index/database somewhere(Baloo?), Dolphin then perform a plain search so that results can be returned of files that actually are there but not always visible to the default search strategy? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
