Title:
Can't begin Typing Until All Panels Are Fully Loaded
Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
software-center 5.6.0-0ubuntu2, Ubuntu 13.04
Software-Center needs to be a multi-threaded application so that the
user can begin typing their query BEFORE all panels are fully loaded.
All load-intensive panels (of the software-center window) should be
performed in a different thread than the the one that provides the
search text-box-control. The search text box should loaded
immediately, so the the user can begin typing immediately.
You can decrease the perceived load time of this application by given
the user something to do while the intensive portions of the window
are loading. As is, the user must WAIT until the entire application is
fully loaded before she can begin to type one character into the
search box.
When I use Software-Center, the first thing I do is type a search
query. I would rather be able to type this upfront (letting the UI
catch up with my query) rather than having to wait on the UI to finish
loading for 9 seconds and then type my query. Am I alone?
(Not to be confused with bug 1021779, about time taken for the window
to open at all.)
