Bug ID: 15409
Summary: Making Thunar search more user-friendly
Classification: Xfce Core
Product: Thunar
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Medium
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.8.5
Hi all,
Currently, Thunar provides three ways of searching (correct me if I missed
something):
1. Start typing: matches the exact name of a file or folder
2. Ctrl + s search by pattern: as beginner user wouldn't know how to use this
3. Right mouse click > Catfish: probably the best for beginners as it matches
almost anything by keywords
I would still say that despite those three, there is one missing that is
efficient yet user-friendly.
Personally, I really like the implementation recent Nautilus has chosen.
Like 1. you can start typing and it matches anything by keyword, not just exact
matches of the name, unlike Thunar.
How do you feel about the search in Thunar, specially looking at
user-friendliness?
Is there anything you see we could improve to aid beginners?
Thanks for the conversation.
Regards
