[Bug 1754819] Re: Searching within Gnome Settings only works for top-level menu entries
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: (As seen in the latest daily build of 32bit Ubuntu Budgie) See attached screenshot. Searching within settings is currently not very useful / intuitive, as it only finds results at the level of top-level menu entries / categories, but not the items within them. As an example, searching for "uni" brings up Universal Access, but the same search tool produces nothing when searching for items within the Universal Access category (e.g. "contrast", "screen", "cursor", etc).

Ken, As you say the main issue is now apparently fixed. So please: 1. Update the bug description to describe the remaining problem(s). 2.

[Bug 1754819] Re: Searching within Gnome Settings only works for top-level menu entries
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance. GNOME is moving to https://gitlab.gnome.org/ and gnome-control-center confusingly has two upstream bug trackers now. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=gnome-control-center If you're interested in trying to fix the Cursor bug, you'll want to add Keywords to the .desktop.in.in files in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME /gnome-control-center/tree/master/panels GNOME 3.28 is in a String Freeze for translators to be able to work so I don't know if GNOME will be willing to fix the Cursor issue for 3.28 or save it for the next GNOME release in 6 months. It's generally best to file separate bugs for specific issues. (I think there are multiple bugs here.) ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754819 Title: Searching within Gnome Settings only works for top-level menu entries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1754819/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1754819] Re: Searching within Gnome Settings only works for top-level menu entries
This issue has been partially improved in the overnight update, but inconsistently. As some examples of the broader pattern I'm talking about here, searching for: - "screen" now brings up a plausible list of options, including screenshot, universal access, displays, etc. - "contrast" brings up Universal Access. All good. - "cursor" brings up no result, despite also being an option under Universal Access. - "sharing" brings up "sharing - control what you want to share with others", but does not bring up "desktop sharing". - "banner" brings up no result, even though "banner designer" is an option under Notifications > Applications. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754819 Title: Searching within Gnome Settings only works for top-level menu entries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1754819/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
