Find Files question

Post by acheton »

Hi there

I think I've encountered a bug which has been around for a while, which I've only just got around to reporting.

1) Open a directory in XY
2) Change the directory using the Breadcrumb bar
3) Enter something into the Name box of Find Files. Note that the Location shows the current directory correctly
4) Press enter to initiate the search and note that the location now reverts to the directory selected in 1

thanks

Ach

OK, well I've just checked again with the current beta and the behaviour still exists. I think what is happening is that it is only searching the highlighted folder rather than the whole structure. Here is a gif showing the behaviour:

Not a bug, because the "Selected locations" (in the info panel) has been ticked.
Untick it and try again :)
