I don't know how long it will take, but in the meantime Ubuntu could ship the patch maintained by the Arch community: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/nautilus-restore- typeahead.patch?h=nautilus-typeahead It looks like this patch is kept up to date pretty well. There is a similar

I don't think it's true that an option is always good. I think software should endeavour to have decent default options, and if multiple use cases can be accommodated without an option, then that is preferable. But you're right, a recursive search with ctrl-f vs typeahaed with simple typing would

2018-11-03 Thread Chris Billington
On major problem with this search order is that it conflicts with the order of files in Nautilius in the non-search view. In my home folder I have 'thesis' and 'tmp' subfolders, and they are shown in that order. I type 't' expecting 'thesis' to be the first result so that I can hit enter and

Lubomir, what changes were required on top of the arch patch to work with 3.26.3? I'm using the Arch patch as-is on Ubuntu 18.04 and there don't appear to be any problems that I've noticed so far. But assuming your changes are necessary, could you publish them somewhere? It would be great to maybe

That example was my home directory, and all the files were either in my home directory or a subfolder. Attached is another example from within the root directory a python project 'zprocess', searching for 'py'. Here is the result of the find command (excluding hidden files and folders):

Public bug reported: (Nautilus 3.26.3 on Ubuntu 18.04, but bug has been present as long as the new search box has existed to my knowledge) If you start typing in nautilus, so long as no text field anywhere is focused, the search box will appear and get focus, so you end up typing into it.

Agreed. Distinguishing between monitors serves no purpose. Like everyone else I have strong muscle memory to look to the top right of my screen when I want to see status indicators, or to look to the top to see the time, or to move my mouse to the top right to change the volume. This muscle memory
