[dolphin] [Bug 416087] Optionally find hidden files using Dolphin's standard search

Not really being ignored. The summary given in in Bug 463830 shows how much needs to be smoothed out, it is definitely tangled. Scroll down to: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=463830#c3 for a mention of where hidden folders come in... Boils down, at least in part, to: ... Dolphin should give the same results (as far as is possible) irrespective of whether it is asking baloo or doing its own search ... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416087 ttrovo changed: What|Removed |Added CC||vle...@yandex.ru --- Comment #13 from ttrovo --- Please, reconsider and address this issue. A lot of people are not expecting current behavior and many of them consider it to be a bug. Important bug. The behavior of search in Krusader and ANY other file manager is different and better. Please also take into account, that it can easily lead to user DATA LOSS. I had these situations multiple times myself in real life, so it is not far-fetched at all: 1. User opens directory and check there it has no valuable files with sub-string "foobar" using dolphin search. 2. User deletes directory expecting it to lack valuable files. 3. The files where in path like: `subdir/.local/foobar`. Dolphin removes them. Why would dolphin remove files that it kind of does not see them? Obviously ignoring "hidden" files during removal would be not a good idea, why would anyone consider ignoring them during search to be a good idea in the first place? Especially when Show hidden files is on. Awesome Nate Graham and other guys, please, reconsider, address this issue and make Dolphin even better and once again reliable (currently search is not reliable). Maybe search provider that does not search properly should be opt-in instead of being irreplaceable opt-nothing. Thanks a lot! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Turns out the files I was looking for were within a hidden folder. I have Baloo disabled, as no need to expend system resources, storage, & ssd wear to make searches slightly faster. If it's difficult to integrate i.e kfind or an alternative better-working search implementation directly into the Dolphin UI, is it at least possible to remap the Ctrl+F hotkey in Dolphin to launch kfind (in a separate window), rather than showing the Baloo search bar? Remapping the ctrl+f key is obvious (Settings->Configure Keyboard Shortcuts), but I don't see an option to map it to launching an external application (kfind). And mapping Ctrl+F globally doesn't work, as it would get in the way of the search hotkey in other applications. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416087 Peter changed: What|Removed |Added Resolution|FIXED |--- Status|RESOLVED|REOPENED --- Comment #7 from Peter --- I believe that using baloo is a very serious logical mistake. Because: - Most users do not use search 24/7. - Baloo at the same time kills my SSD and takes a lot of resources. - Dolphin gives an irrelevant search due to Baloo. - Dolphin cannot just find files that are not in the index. This tricks the user. No as a result of the search? So this file does not exist! Me and 99% of users are ready to wait 5 seconds to find the file. They have been asking for this for almost a decade. The days of Windows 98 (file indexing) and super-slow hard drives are over. Need to give up Baloo. And ready-made solutions for the search are already there. For example KFind. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
