          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 74132
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Other: Find dialogs interrupt
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
        Whiteboard: BSA
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.1.0.4 release
         Component: UI
           Product: LibreOffice

When a search reaches the end of the document (or the beginning, in the case of
reverse search), a dialog pops up asking whether the user wants to continue
searching at the beginning (or end) of the document.

This is an unnecessary interruption and violates the "ux-interruption"
principle. Rather than showing a modal dialog, the label "Reached the end of
the document" should appear at the end of the Find bar, as in Firefox, or,
better yet, there should be a persistent label showing the order of the result
out of all the results (e.g. "13/24"), as in Chromium.
The label should have a much lighter color than active buttons, to be clearly
differentiated as non-actionable.

Similarly, the "Search key not found." dialog is an unnecessary interruption
and should be replaced with a label in the find bar as well.
Operating System: All
Version: 4.1.0.4 release
