Hello people, few days ago, I was talking with Celeste about the problem of the multiple dialogs popping up when searching using the find bar (as reported in [1]). Currently, up to three dialogs can popup, even almost simultaneously: a) a "searching for <search terms>" is shown at the start, giving feedback that "something is going on" b) when the end/begin of the document is reached, a "the end/begin is reached, start from begin/end?" question is asked c) no results produce a final "no results found"
Of course, all of them are a simple "overwhelming", for a simple task like searching. Some proposals could be the following: 1) replace a) with a animated throbber, placed left or right the lineedit, as you can see in a quick mockup[2]. 2) Kill the dialog c), and just color the lineedit with negative colors, much like what kwrite/kate in KDE 4 already do What do you think?
