Title:
Typeahead functionality for nautilus is broken
Status in Nautilus:
Unknown
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
This bug is similar to: #857710 File selection by typing is buggy
sometimes
Description: Ubuntu 11.10
Release: 11.10
nautilus:
Installed: 1:3.2.1-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 1:3.2.1-0ubuntu1
However the person that was assigned to that bug told me to file a new one because supposedly it is a different bug.
I installed the nautilus 1:3.2.1-0ubuntu1 package from ubuntu proposed and all packages related and I still experience the following behavior:
Expected behavior:
- Open nautilus in ANY folder.
- Start typing name of folder/file.
- Nautilus selects folders/file matching as you type (one file at a time matching what is in the search/typeahead box).
- Type backspace
- Deletes the last character typed in search/typeahead box
Actual Behavior
- Open nautilus in ANY folder.
- Start typing the name of a folder/file.
- Sometimes the search box opens and sometimes it does not. (BUG)
- If it does open, after a letter or two the search box disappears. (BUG)
- If you change folders sometimes the box reappears as you start typing other times it disappears. (BUG)
- If the box re-appears typing in Back-space does not delete the text present in the box, instead it navigates backwards (Unexpected behavior)
- If it disappears It does not re-appear until you close and re-open nautilus. (BUG)
This happens in ALL views (Icon, List, Compact) with or without status
bar enabled (Some suggested that the status bar fixes this, it does
not).
The newly released packages (nautilus* 3.2.1) DO NOT fix this bug.
I am on Ubuntu 11.10 64Bit Using Gnome 3.2 and Gnome Shell.
Upgraded to this ubuntu since 10.04
