[Bug 1767431] Re: restore type-ahead find, again
I really miss the old behaviour. When I want to search I press ctrl+F like most applications.

This is really annoying, counter-intuitive behaviour.

[Bug 1767431] Re: restore type-ahead find, again
Hi. I finally upgraded to 18.04 and Nautilus without type-ahead find is extremely limiting when it comes to file/folder navigation. I can't even fathom why it would be dropped. But if search is now the default action for when one starts typing, there should be a way to disable that, or enable type-ahead find, if not in an easily-found, user-friendly way, then at least as an option in Preferences. I know there is a patched version available, but I'd rather not have upgrade headaches which can arise from having patched versions of major system apps, so am just adding my voice to the countless others on the web begging for action on this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767431 Title: restore type-ahead find, again To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1767431/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Issue has a patch, so wondering: What are the decision criteria for bringing the patch into 18.04, perhaps backports?

It just doesn't make sense to have a search as soon as you start typing, that's what the search button and Ctrl+F are for.

This is super annoying, and very unexpected behaviour change particularly for users coming from Windows.

I don't think this should be marked as a duplicate of bug #1164016. That bug was successfully fixed, but this one is a new regression that requires a different patch. Since #1164016 is marked as Fix Released, a new bug should be opened for this new regression. Are any Ubuntu devs looking into this? A working and maintained patch has been out for a year, but it has not yet been merged yet. What needs to be done to get this merged? ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1164016 restore type-ahead find -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767431 Title: restore type-ahead find, again To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1767431/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@seb128, that URL is for git clone, the HTML page for the repo is at [1]. Also, to compile nautilus with the patch, there needs another small patch after applying the Arch patch, to remove a naming conflict introduced in an Ubuntu patch in 18.04. I attached my patch. I have been using the patched nautilus for two days without any problem. The HCI experience after the patch aligns experience in 16.04 and earlier, i.e., type to jump to the location of the first file and press Ctrl+F to search.
