Bug ID: 424102
Summary: Option to enable indexing for a folder is confusingly
labelled 'full content indexing'
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.19.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_baloo
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
'Folder specific configuration' in the baloo KCM shows a dropdown beside each
folder, which offers two options: 'Full content indexing' and 'Not indexed'.
This happens even when the 'also index file content' checkbox is disabled. My
understanding is that you need to use the folder specific configuration to tell
baloo to index folders outside the home directory. If that is the case, the
options in the dropdown should simply be labelled 'indexed' and 'not indexed'
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to System settings > Search > File Search.
2. Add a folder to the folder specific configuration if one is not already
added.
3. Click the dropdown next to the added folder
OBSERVED RESULT
The option in the dropdown to enable indexing of a folder is confusingly named
'full content indexing'.
EXPECTED RESULT
If the option just enables indexing of a particular folder, it should be
labelled 'Indexed'.
