[Bug 752259] Re: Dash - Add sub-string matching to Dash search
With the introduction of libcolumbus and fuzzy matching it now (13.10) works as described in this bug report (one can argue it's too tolerant and fuzzy). ** Changed in: unity-lens-applications Status: Triaged => Fix Committed ** No longer affects: unity ** Changed in: unity-lens-applications (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Committed ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/752259 Title: Dash - Add sub-string matching to Dash search To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/752259/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I 've tested in 13.04 the scenario, and there it is working as Adam described. So we have already partial searching, but only (or at least) for files and not for apps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/752259 Title: Dash - Add sub-string matching to Dash search To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/752259/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 752259] Re: Dash - Add sub-string matching to Dash search
In 12.04 I've noticed that dash returns searches for substring (partial words) for files and folders but not for applications. E.g.: - searching for "hrom" returns "Chromatic Fantasy" file but NOT "Chromium Browser" - searching for "chrom" returns both file and application It would be very helpful to return the partial word matches for applications also. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/752259 Title: Dash - Add sub-string matching to Dash search To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/752259/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 752259] Re: Dash - Add sub-string matching to Dash search
** Description changed: Not a bug specifically, but... It would be really nice if, when you hit Super and start typing the name of an application you wish to open, Unity behaved more like GNOME-Do. What I mean is that in Unity's current form, you have to type the proper name of the application. Whereas in GNOME-Do, you can just hit a few characters from it and it will find it for you. For example, "Synaptic Package Manager". In Unity you have to start typing S Y N, but in GNOME- Do you could type S M or S P or S P M, etc and it knows what you mean. The letters don't have to be adjacent to each other in the name of the application for GNOME-Do, but they must be in Unity. This would be a nice little feature to have, and would make Unity that little bit more unifying. + + --- + Second description of same issue from dupe bug: + + This could be seen as a wishlist, but in my opinion the current behavior + is unexpected. + + When using dash and starting writing the name of the application/file, I + expected the match being done with *all* the name of the application, + not just the *start*. I mean, if I type "dict", I expect to see both + "Dictionary" and "StarDict". I notices this several time; you often + remember part of the name of the application and sometime it is not the + start of it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/752259 Title: Dash - Add sub-string matching to Dash search To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/752259/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
